Did Venus wax her pussy?
Intrigued by its title, we wanted to listen to “this feminist and inclusive podcast that deconstructs the history of Western art and its heteropatriarchal system”. Nothing less ! His new episode is called The Sacrifices of Romanticism. It focuses on the representation of women in the romantic movement in Europe (1800-1850). By highlighting the romantic heroines, these archetypes of the woman who is sacrificed, passive, victim, vulnerable and… “always with her tits out”. “Yet there were strong and active women at the time. But we completely erased them from history,” laments Julie Beauzac, host and creator of the podcast. Among other episodes of Did Venus wax her pussy?, There are Frida Kahlo, beyond the myth ; or Picasso, separating the man and the artistin which Beauzac points out that the genius of modern painting was also “a big piece of garbage”!

With Limoilou Hoodfilmmaker Justice Rutikara revisits the neighborhood of his childhood through the prism of its beautiful and rich diversity.
If Quebec is not Toronto or Montreal, the capital has been welcoming immigration for the past thirty years, mainly from African countries, which gives certain corners of Lower Town, such as Limoilou, a new international flavor. With Limoilou Hood, filmmaker Justice Rutikara revisits the neighborhood of his childhood through the prism of its beautiful and rich diversity. He focuses as much on its industrialization as on its gentrification, the omnipresence of rap and hip-hop artists, or even the community life of the neighborhood. He sets out to meet musicians and poets, like Webster, to talk about the soul of Limoilou, a once working-class and sleazy sector, which has become cool and plugged in. Note: the author Érika Soucy collaborated on the series as a content advisor.

With his funny, quirky and erudite tone, Charles Beauchesne proposes to revisit the worst moments in world history.
With his funny, offbeat and erudite tone, Charles Beauchesne proposes to return to the worst moments in world history: Hitler and the 1936 Olympic Games in Berlin, the Crusades or the worst popes. The most recent episode of the series, offered in three parts, focuses on ancient Rome and the fall of the Roman Empire – whose exact date historians disagree on, he says in the introduction. The animator stages many characters who shaped the mythical and dismal empire, and flies over “the chaos of this time” with the aim of making us discover ancient Rome “in a whole new light”. “But how did this titan of the ancient world, who ruled the largest territory on Earth in his time, come to crumble into marble dust? asks Beauchesne. Last March, he won the Olivier for the humorous podcast with script of the year for his season 3.

Since February 2017, the American journalist Michael Barbaro hosts The Dailya podcast produced by the New York Times. With her warm and curious voice, Barbaro analyzes the news with finesse and a brilliant spirit of synthesis. Every morning from 6 a.m., the host receives a guest, often an investigative journalist from the Times, to break down the topic of the day. The episode can be as much about US politics as it is about health or the migrant crisis, etc. What distinguishes The Daily of other public affairs shows, it’s Barbaro’s very human angle on current affairs. Last week, he spoke with a correspondent for the newspaper in Brazil about the war in Ukraine through its repercussions on the supply of the global food chain, since Russia and Ukraine are the largest exporters of cereals and of fertilizers to farmers around the world. With a peak of 3.5 million listeners during the pandemic, The Daily is one of the most listened to podcasts in the United States.
