51 分钟In our final character episode of this season, we put Carrie from Sex and the City on the couch. Nemone looks at why Sex and the City hasn’t aged well, and Ben talks about diversity in the privileged, white world of the show. We get into Carrie’s shopping habit, low self-esteem, and why everyone in the show is SO obsessed with relationships, even though the women really have no need for them. We also get a primer on the Bechdel test, and how you can tell if a show is sexist without knowing it. And if you want to check out more on the patriarchy and diversity, have a listen to our episodes on Sydney from The Bear. We want to hear about any theories we might have missed, what you’ve thought of the show so far and your character suggestions.

Welcome to Origins with me, Kush Jumbo, the show where the biggest names in entertainment tell me the stories that made them who they are today.
Origins is a conversation about my guests early inspirations and growing up.
Guests this season include Dame Anna Winter, Poppy Delevingne, Peter Capaldi and Golda Rachevel, aka Queen Charlotte in Bridgerton.
I only kind of discovered my sexuality.
When I went to drama school.
Join me every week to hear where it all began.
From Sony Music Entertainment, this is Origins with Chris Jumbo.
Hi there.
It's Simon and Mark here on today's show, Ben and Nimon are looking at Carrie Bradshaw, you know, from Sex and the City.
A favorite, a journalist with a shopping habit who flits in and out of affairs with the dubious mister big.
She tells other people how to live their lives, but can she live her own?
How profound.
Enjoy the show, and please do send us your thoughts on the show and suggestions for characters for Ben and Nimon to cover to shrink the box@sonymusic.com.
Dot I am someone who is looking for love.
Real love, ridiculous, inconvenient, consuming, can't live without each other love.
And I don't think that love is here in, in this expensive suite in this lovely hotel in Paris.
Oh, it's Ben Bailey Smith here.
Welcome to the place where we shrink the noggins of your tv faves and see what behavioral traits we might even learn about ourselves.
And.
Oh, no.
