I love this show but have things to add to conversation please allow a place for this. Email whatever option to comment after as in regular women’s hour

Diverse and engaging topics by and about “real” women. Covering a range of topics relevant to women who speak freely to share their experiences and views in a collaborative and supportive forum.

I love this show. I feel like I am hanging out having a drink after work with really cool and interesting women who have a lot to say about things that matter to me. Love Lauren Laverne too!

The show brings a wide variety of women together in a group setting to discuss topics as they pertain to women's lived realities. Panel members are usually comprised of both subject matter experts, and at least one woman who manages to puncture any pomposity which may pop up. I have found each episode to be thoughtful and thought provoking, and I'm always eager to find time to listen when a new episode appears. I'm so grateful that the BBC provides their content outside of the British borders. It is often the best of available downloads.
