“It’s ‘unfiltered.’ It’s ‘pioneering.’ It’s… the 57th most festive soundtrack for yourself you’ll hear all year.”

This is how Peter begins the review.

In the first episode, Meghan visits her “best friend” Serena Williams, and there’s talk of motherhood, ambitions, and feminism.

However, Peter believes that the lack of nuance and genuine commitment from Meghan herself means the whole thing will fall apart. She believes the Duchess is not the best to pursue the feminist movement.

“As she (often) will tell you, Meghan is a feminist. But unlike Gloria Steinem and all the other feminist icons, Meghan’s understanding of ideology seems almost exclusively about herself,” the author wrote in the review.

Peter stresses that she understands that it would be great if the message could have such an impact, if that was the reason for the change.

“But was it really necessary for Megan to start a feminist podcast by telling us how feminist she is? (…) My point is that throughout this entire podcast, it seems Megan doesn’t understand drawing. What is being promoted as a feminist podcast looks so far It’s nothing more than an exercise in self-aggrandizement. It’s more about promoting the host than anyone else. Isn’t that exactly the kind of feminism we’ve been trying to get away from?”, asks the reviewer.
