The On the Rag team meet one more time to talk about how the Covid-19 crisis affects women and what you can do to cope.
It's our last podcast for a little while so crack open a bottle of something fizzy and join us as we undergo what is basically a group therapy session. We are one week into national lockdown and starting to settle into our new normal, and there is much to discuss. How does Covid-19 affect woman specifically? Is this going to be the end of the beauty industry? And why is everyone so horny?
Beyond that, we'd just like to say a huge thank you to everyone who has been a part of the On the Rag community over the past five years. We've laughed together, we've cried together, we've raged together. It's not goodbye forever, just goodbye for now x

The On the Rag team assemble to dissect the previous month in news, media and feminism.
It's somehow the end of February so we're here to look back at the month in Women's Stuff. Uniform shorts are sending young women into counselling sessions at a a local high school, but why? How the hell did anyone think Hannah Tamaki was going to make it onto Dancing With the Stars NZ without a fuss? And how crucial is the Weinstein verdict to the #MeToo movement?
Beyond that, we have some news about the future of the podcast (it's not soooo bad), share our cool tips of the month and work through the horror of getting the ECP at the chemist. It's also Mercury Retrograde, so don't blame us for the chaotic energy, swear words and fumbled sentences that go nowhere. You have been warned.

The On the Rag team assemble to dissect what feels like the longest month in human history.
We're back for another year to yarn about all things to do with women in the news and media, along with some other things that have nothing to do with anything. The first month of 2020 has come to a close and we already feel like we have lived a million lives. How can you focus on your 2020 resolutions when the sky is orange? Why do people not want to talk about Kobe's past? And why is Gwyneth selling vagina candles?
Beyond that, we recommend our favourite holiday reads and TV shows, go down the sad rabbit-hole of Stefan Molyneux's Twitter, check in with the horror of the Weinstein trial and share our favourite tips of the month. Oh, and Michéle interviewed Margaret Atwood for The Project, so she's basically one of us now.

Alex Casey, Leonie Hayden and Michèle A’Court tackle the past month in women, with thanks to our friends at The Women’s Bookshop.
As Christmas breathes down our necks and summer threatens us with bikini waxing, it's time to have a bit of a rage. November was a rough month for women in New Zealand. The Grace Millane trial was dragged through the media in excruciating detail, and the public examination of her sex life reminded us that women just can't win either way. We reflect on how it all played out, and look at some ways to help out of all the sadness.
We also talk about how to get ready for summer (you don't actually need to do anything) and how self-care might all be a crock of shit. Also: TI is a terrible man, male birth control is here if he can stomach a shot to the nuts, and you simply have to read this bonkers story about an influencer and her ghost writer.

Alex Casey, Leonie Hayden, Michèle A’Court tackle the past month in women, with thanks to our friends at The Women’s Bookshop.
Boo! We witches are back for a scary Halloween podcast, after a month where Freddy Krueger (Harvey Weinstein) showed his face in public and was courageously confronted by two women in Los Angeles. There's also been a terrifyingly bad cartoon drawn about nasty mothers and their beloved phones, and Ernst and Young have issued a 55 page briefing for their female staff that is so shocking it could wake the dead.
There's also the problem with Lonely lingerie, a mansplain to end all mansplains and an absurd interaction during a facial. All of that, plus also the things we’ve been watching and reading this month – including Big Mouth on Netflix, Jenny Slate's comedy special, and this phenomenal piece about beauty influencers.

Alex Casey, Leonie Hayden, Michèle A’Court tackle the past month in women, with thanks to our friends at The Women’s Bookshop.
It's been a big month for young women using their voice. Greta Thunberg admonished leaders at the UN for not doing enough for the dying planet, which annoyed brave old media boys who think teens should just stick to doing the dishes. Closer to home, a young woman within the Labour Party detailed allegations of sexual assault from a party staffer, and shone on a light on what appeared to be a broken system for dealing with survivors. Both made an immeasurable impact.
We walk about all of that, plus also the things we've been watching and reading this month – including Unbelievable on Netflix, Late Night, this phenomenal piece written about sex work.

ex Casey, Leonie Hayden, Michèle A’Court tackle the past month in women, with thanks to our friends at The Women’s Bookshop.
Mother Earth? What about Father Earth?! In cool news, the world is on fire and some men aren't using reusable bags because they think it makes them look less masculine. There's also the scarily familiar story JJ Feeney taxi assault case, a bold step forward in abortion reform and Marco Pierre White deciding that women don't belong in the kitchen at all because they are too emotional.
Plus, our recommended books and movies of the month including Glow, Late Night and Booksmart. Get into it!

This month on On the Rag, we have a lot of making up to do after skipping out on our July episode. You haven't missed much though, because Brian Tamaki is still screaming about abortion being premeditated murder! As if demonic pagan rituals weren't enough, we also celebrate the mana wahine protecting Ihumātao, the positive changes being made around the sexual assault court process and laugh at the men who still think they can win a point against Serena Williams.

Rough winds do shake the darling pod of May, but that won't stop the On the Rag team huddling together in the midst of a thunderstorm. Not to get all Gone by Lunchtime on you, but it's been a wild month for people in politics making truly bizarre statements, from Brian Tamaki to Alfred Ngaro, to the New Conservatives and their proposed Minister for Men.
There's also the joys of Fleabag season two, some hearty chat about how best to tackle a digital detox and a peek at the scary corners of the internet. Incels are now getting plastic surgery to look like Chads, pick-up artists are flooding forums with the best places to "target" women and Golriz Ghahraman has shared her experience with online abuse.

This month on On the Rag, we look back at the month of April and yes we are very late and we’re very sorry. Mother’s Day is around the corner, and brands are doing the absolute most to make the worst gift suggestions of all time. Farmers is encouraging you to buy 11 different hair removal machines, and Michael Hill wants you to buy your Work Mum a lovely pair of studs, too.
There’s also story about a woman asked to cover up at her local pool, the viral breasts that reminded us all we have no idea what our bodies look like and a hurtful character lurking inAvengers: Endgame. We also nominate our Kia Ora Kuini of the month and remind you all that our webseries also exists and you should really watch it.

Alex Casey, Leonie Hayden, Michèle A’Court and Mahvash Ali tackle the past month in women, with thanks to our friends at The Women’s Bookshop.
For our March episode we have brought in an extra special guest to reflect on the month in New Zealand that was. Mahvash Ali is a producer for The Project NZ, and describes herself a sassy Muslim woman, a motor mouth, and claims that coffee is addicted to HER. She also brings with her a wealth of knowledge about Muslim feminism and institutional racism in New Zealand.
What are some misconceptions that people have about Muslim women and oppression? How can we continue to support our Muslim communities following the Christchurch terror attacks? And why did nobody heed the warnings from Muslim women for years? All that, and more hilarious uses for the hijab than you ever thought possible.

Alex Casey, Leonie Hayden and Michèle A’Court tackle the past month in women, news and popular culture, with thanks to our friends at The Women’s Bookshop.
A very late February episode of On the Rag appears, complete with Michele's pitch perfect Jordan B. Peterson impersonation, outrage over gender fluid clothing and some scary truths about a world built for men. Why is the office air con always too cold for women? Why would an architect make a glass-floored balcony? And why are iPhones just too damn big for our lady hands?
Beyond that, we look at how to decorate your home to appeal for men. Get rid of that cactus! Prints! And definitely no women in your art! We also look at a few stories which allegedly sparked outrage, backlash and hellfire this month and ask: are feminists actually as angry as the media is making us out to be?

It began with a Gillette razor and it ended with a whole week of New Zealand rape culture under a microscope. January was a rough one for sure, so join us in our extremely hot studio as we try to figure out what in the hell is going on around us. Why give The Roast Busters a voice? Why should a woman be ordered to pay her abuser in court? And what in the hell does Piers Morgan have to be angry about NOW?
We also look at the rise of body dysmorphia thanks to social media and selfie filters, ask The Pope himself to apologise for ruining the pill for decades, and atone for our feminist sins of the month.

Listen to Alex Casey, Leonie Hayden and Madeleine Chapman tackle the past YEAR in women, news and popular culture, with thanks to our friends at The Women’s Bookshop.
We made it everyone! It's last episode of On the Rag for the year, and we are more than ready to say goodbye to 2018. But first, we must look back. December was a time of hurt for women across New Zealand, as the murder of Grace Millane brought violence against women into the spotlight once more. So what do you say to the #notallmen? And how did the relentless media circus make us women feel? We also look at our often unspoken personal safety measures, and the tyranny of taxis.
But where there is shade, there is also light. We nominate our Yas Queens of the year, and cast an eye back to the highlights of 2018 including abortion reform, Jacinda, and the cool women who have infiltrated mainstream media. Also, if you need hot tips for Christmas stress and present-buying, we've got it in spades. Head to our Facebook page for a chance to win an amazing books package from The Women’s Bookshop, and enjoy their bestsellers for December.

A very special episode with thanks to our friends at The Women’s Bookshop.
They said it couldn't be done. They said we couldn't get Clementine Ford back to do another pod. But we did, and here it is. Promoting her new book Boys Will Be Boys, Clementine spends an hour in The Spinoff studio to answer everything you've ever wanted to know about feminism, the patriarchy, and dealing with goblins and/or trolls.
What is toxic masculinity? How does she feel about ACT kicking up a stink about her? And what does "boys will be boys" really mean in 2018? Pour yourself a glass of strong something and get involved with the official hashtag #otrpod, or click here to like us on Facebook.

Listen to Alex Casey, Leonie Hayden and Madeleine Chapman tackle the past month in women, news and popular culture, with thanks to our friends at The Women’s Bookshop.
This month Madeleine Chapman steps in for Michele A'Court as we dissect the October in womanhood. The fancy royal couple were here for a bit, the government is finally pushing abortion reform along and one Otago girls' school is finally wearing the pants. In sporting news, Black Ferns merch is still incredibly hard to come by – unless you are Trevor Mallard.
Beyond that, we share our favourite things to watch and read this month, confess to our feminist sins and talk about the perils of shaving our legs for the summer months.
