Our take on Stiffed podcast

Stiffed is a fascinating podcast exploring the wild world of 1970s feminist porn and the unlikely collaboration between feminist journalists and Penthouse founder Bob Guccione. Jennifer Romolini brings us the incredible story of VIVA magazine, a revolutionary erotic publication for women. With full-frontal male nudes, articles by feminist icons, and interviews with literary legends, VIVA had the potential to be a game-changer. However, the pod also reveals the magazine's inevitable downfall, highlighting the complexities of mixing feminism and pornography. Stiffed is a history podcast by Crooked Media and iHeartPodcasts.
