Freeze! The Polyester Podcast had a whole episode planned for our lovely listeners until Sabrina Carpenter delivered us feminist discourse on a silver platter, or rather, on a silver dog leash. On Wednesday, the singer announced her forthcoming summer album titled 'Man's Best Friend' along with artwork picturing Sabrina on all fours having her hair pulled by an anonymous suited figure.


Is the cover art a clever continuation of Carpenter's satirisation of female sexuality or are we being conned into embracing misogynistic portrayals of women again in the mainstream? This week, hosts Ione and Gina get into the nitty gritty of the discourse; from pop star sensuality, to ‘puriteens’ and the continuing poison of choice feminism on our ability to think critically.
