Twilight | E1: A Warm Hug of Problematic Love

The Big Hit Show - A podcast by Higher Ground

To make the case for Twilight we need to understand the case against it. This episode examines the roots of people’s hatred of Twilight (spoiler alert: it’s misogyny, but it’s not just misogyny), charts the evolution of modern teenage fan culture, and reveals the reasons why Stephenie Meyer’s series has resonated so deeply with generations of young women.Transcript: HERECredits:Host, Writer: Alex PappademasShowrunner: Colin McNultyProducers: Sabrina Fang, Lori Galarreta, Taylor JonesProduction Assistant: Stella HartmannComposer, Sound Designer, Mix Engineer: Alex MacInnisTheme Song: Dan LeoneFact Checker: Savannah WrightExecutive Producer for Western Sound: Ben AdairExecutive Producers for Higher Ground: Dan Fierman, Anna Holmes, Mukta Mohan, Janae MarableExecutive Producers for Spotify: Daniel Ek, Dawn Ostroff, Courtney Holt, Julie McNamaraSpecial Thanks: Joe Paulsen, Eric Spiegelman and Jenna Levin Learn more about your ad choices.
