Sex and the City S1E8: “Three’s a Crowd” with Good Noticing's Claire Parker

About this episode

Claire Parker joins the hosts to discuss the complexities of relationships and feminism in the episode 'Three’s a Crowd' from Sex and the City.

Claire Parker from the Vox Media podcast Good Noticings and stand-up special 32, returns to the pod to discuss SATC S1E8, “Three’s a Crowd.” Big is having a blast playing games with Carrie about his book publisher ex-wife, Charlotte flirts with the idea of a threesome IRL and in her dreams, Samantha sleeps with a married man while still being a girl’s girl, and Miranda laments how her friends won’t go down on her in therapy. We discuss the continued DUFF treatment of Miranda, why you should beware men that tell you how pretty you are when pitching a threesome, and how it’s 4th wave feminism to be both stupid and a genius.
