From the minds of Lena Dunham and Alissa Bennett, The C-Word is an in-depth exploration of culture's most discussed women—their lives, legacies, and why society is so hell-bent on labeling them "crazy."
Society called them crazy. But maybe they're iconic?
In this all-new season, Lena and Alissa peer into the complicated lives of a hip-hop revolutionary, one of Hollywood's most infamous it girls, Russian "royalty", and much more.
Lena Dunham is an Emmy Award-winning writer, director, producer and actor whose credits include the groundbreaking HBO Original, Girls along with feature films, Sharp Stick and Catherine Called Birdy.
Alissa Bennett is an essayist whose work probes the seedy underbelly of popular culture, cinema, and literature.
In the wake of the Supreme Court’s overturning of Roe v. Wade, we want you, our incredible listeners, to come together to demonstrate support for abortion access. If you donate to National Network of Abortion Funds, you will also be entered to win a C-Word episode that I will write all about you!
