About this episode

Megan O'Donnell discusses the impact and themes of both Devil Wears Prada films, exploring fashion media and cultural commentary.

The Devil Wears Prada 2 had NO right being this good… so naturally we need to discuss it for two hours. 💅 This week on I Know You Didn’t Ask, Megan O’Donnell breaks down both Devil Wears Prada films — from Miranda Priestly’s reign of terror to the very real collapse of fashion media, magazine culture, and the corporate takeover of journalism. We’re talking: • The original 2006 movie and why it became a cultural obsession • Anna Wintour comparisons & the gender politics of “difficult” women • Andy Sachs’ iconic fashion glow-up • The sequel’s commentary on layoffs, digital media, AI & media consolidation • Why Miranda Priestly still works as a character in 2026 • Fashion journalism, Conde Nast vibes, luxury branding & the death of print • Behind-the-scenes production details, styling, casting & iconic callbacks Plus: cerulean sweaters, Chanel sunglasses, Adrian Grenier discourse, Meryl Streep supremacy, and why studios now spend more marketing movies than actually making them.
