6. Many Different Lives

A series of strange, unexpected human stories from the history of the culture wars.

This story is about how the unique experiences of a little girl growing up unconventionally in America in the 1970s seismically changed the face of feminism in the 90s and beyond. It's a story too about the invention of a word - one that's contributed to a ferocious schism in the British culture wars.

Written and presented by Jon Ronson
Produced by Sarah Shebbeare
Original music by Phil Channell
