Diabolical Lies: Nara Smith & the Great Tradwife Exodus

Recommended by Dylan

This might be my favourite Diabolical Lies episode yet. Ties in well with the discourse about Yesteryear (the NYT bestseller authored by Caro, one of the podcast's co-hosts), Ballerina Farm, Lindsay Clancy, what's considered 'controversial' or 'polarising' by the media, and the shifting PR around the tradwife label.

Also who wants to start a drinking game where we take a drink every time Caro says "FLAG THAT" hehehe

YES such a good episode. I’m reading Yesteryear rn so the timing was perfect. And yeah I’ve just fully added FLAG THAT into my vocabulary.

Just listened to this while I ironically took an hour to perfect a chicken cutlet and pasta dish for me and my husband (I genuinely enjoy cooking and nothing was uselessly made from scratch). Fascinating episode and you just introduced me to an incredible new podcast. Thank you!
