Helen Lewis Spills the Tea

Helen Lewis is a big deal y’all, and yes we’d be saying that even if she didn’t have a British accent. She’s a staff writer at The Atlantic, author of the new book The Genius Myth: A Curious History of a Dangerous Idea (amazon.com/Genius-Myth-Curious-History-Dangero…), as well as Difficult Women: An Imperfect History of Feminism (amazon.com/Difficult-Women-Imperfect-History-F…). She has written and presented several BBC (ooh!) Radio shows including "The New Gurus (google.com/search?cs=0&sca_esv=ed31745f76a…)"and our personal favorite, "Helen Lewis Has Left the Chat (google.com/search?cs=0&sca_esv=ed31745f76a…). You can also find her right here on Substack, at Helen Lewis (substack.com/profile/10208261-helen-lewis).
