About this episode
RHLSTP Book Club 59 - Sex Bomb. Rich chats to comedian Sadia Azmat about her memoir about being a horny Muslim (though much more than that). How important is it that publishing and comedy are representative of the population? Why did Sadia identify with the ugly sisters in Cinderella? Does feminism risk excluding diverse voices and experience? Why wearing the hajib was an act of rebellion. The importance of discussing sex openly. And how writing honestly about your personal experience can resonate with others from very different backgrounds. Plus Rich mispronounces hajib despite practising for ages beforehand, because he is an idiot.
