“Not All Curvy Women Have Tried and Failed at Being Skinny" | Candice and Precious Mar 15, 2019

Show notes

Being curvy is not a political statement, nor is it a last resort. In this passionate and jolting conversation, models Candice Huffine and Precious Lee open up about fashion’s major diversity problem, debunking myths and misconceptions about being curvy, while musing on what a genuine attempt at inclusivity in fashion looks like. Spoiler: it’s not about filling quotas.

Precious was the first black curvy model to appear in Sports Illustrated and Candice was the first curvy model to make the prestigious Pirelli calendar.

This is Dare I Say, the podcast from HarpersBAZAAR.com, where we sit in on unfiltered conversations between the most influential women of our time—those daring to make the difference we deserve.

“I Always Ask, ‘Boy, Girl, or Trans?’” | Laverne & Rosario Mar 08, 2019

Show notes

Remember when you couldn’t say “vagina” on national television? Rosario Dawson does. The actress and activist sits down with Laverne Cox for an intimate discussion about intersectional feminism, the bonds that unite us, and the silences that break us, in a time when anti-trans legislation is proliferating and civil rights are under attack. Americans can’t afford to be complacent.

Hosted by “Booksmart” director Olivia Wilde, Dare I Say is a podcast from HarpersBAZAAR.com that sits in on unfiltered conversations between the most influential women of our time. They are daring to make the difference we deserve.

“We Could Go Back to a Time Where Thousands of Women Die” | Sarah & Leana Mar 08, 2019

Show notes

Roe v. Wade is teetering. Plans to strip funding to Planned Parenthood are underway. State legislatures across the U.S. are introducing motions to limit women’s reproductive rights and their access to healthcare. It’s only a matter of time before a case wends its way to the Supreme Court, which no longer has a pro-Roe majority. What happens when that day arrives? Sarah Weddington, the lawyer who won the 1973 case to legalize abortion, and Planned Parenthood’s new President, Dr. Leana Wen, weigh in.

Show notes

From Texas to D.C. to Los Angeles, we traveled across the country to sit down with activists who seek the truth, leaders who speak truth to power, and role models who encourage us to live our truth, for honest conversations we’d otherwise never be privy to. Whether it’s dissecting the reality behind LGBTQIA rights with Laverne Cox and Rosario Dawson, or delving into the unapologetic lack of diversity in the fashion industry with models Candice Huffine and Precious Lee, our guests say what others don’t dare to.

Olivia Wilde This is Dare I Say, a podcast from Harper’s Bazaar, where we sit in on unfiltered conversations between the most influential women of our time: those daring to make the difference we deserve. I’m your host, Olivia Wilde. I got involved in this project because I’ve personally learned the most from listening to seasoned activists talk about their experiences. Only by stepping outside our echo chambers can we collectively become more effective agents of change. We become more powerful when we connect. We are women who dare. [music]

OW Season One of Dare I Say will be available on all podcast platforms this International Women’s Day, March 8th. [music]
