Sarah Ditum vs Mary Harrington: The Tradwife Debate

After Western feminists celebrated the end of the 50s housewife, it was hard to imagine that ultra-traditional marriages would make a comeback. But the second wind of the ‘tradwife’ has become a modern social movement, with young women choosing to forgo free love in favour of serving their husbands. How did we get here? And what does the return of tradwifery tell us about our culture? Join UnHerd’s Mary Harrington and Sarah Ditum as they debate the second wind of the tradwife.

The Alternative Covid Inquiry

The British Covid inquiry was supposed to uncover and debate the mistakes made by the government during the pandemic years. And yet, many of the figures now proven to have been voicing legitimate concerns about lockdowns, vaccine mandates and the country’s future post-Covid were nowhere to be seen. Join UnHerd’s Freddie Sayers, Oxford professor of theoretical epidemiology Sunetra Gupta, Swedish journalist and author of ‘The Herd’ Johan Anderberg and author of ‘The Covid Consensus’ Thomas Fazi, for an alternative take on the UK’s pandemic legacy.
