Special Extra: We Need To Talk About The Handmaid's Tale

In celebration of the release of the brand new season of The Handmaid's Tale, we've invited a couple of friends over to chat about the series with. We're joined today by mega fan Joanna Fleming from Adore Beauty, and from the brilliant Eyes On Gilead podcast, Fiona Williams.

So, why a special episode about The Handmaid's Tale on our true crime podcast feed? Well, Margaret Atwood, the author of The Handmaid's Tale famously said that there's no crime against women in the book, that hasn't actually been perpetrated against women in real life somewhere in the world.

Oh, and spoiler alert. Obviously.

Season 5 is available to stream free exclusively on SBS On Demand now: https://www.sbs.com.au/ondemand/
