THE FACE presents, as a partner to new Sky original I Hate Suzie, a podcast series. My Public Me – A User’s Guide is a four-part discussion of the issues raised in the show.Host Chanté Joseph is joined in the first episode by writer Lucy Prebble and star Billie Piper. “We wanted to pull apart what it means to be a woman in your late twenties, early thirties,” says Piper of she and the Emmy-nominated playwright’s co-creation, “which is a time nobody really dramatises.”Stay tuned for more deep, frank and funny conversations about digital privacy, public shaming and the toxicity of celebrity culture.
Chanté Joseph is joined by Russell Tovey, actor and art collector. What does I Hate Suzie tell us about masculinity (toxic and otherwise), self-knowledge and staying true to our roots? Essex-born Russell, proudly out since he was 18, gives his insightful take.
Chanté Joseph is joined by Miquita Oliver, TV presenter and radio personality. Listen in for her Suzie-esque tale of teenage success, then twentysomething super-fame, then catastrophic slip-up. Also starring: Neneh Cherry, Lily Allen and Mabel. Not starring: Girls Aloud
Chanté Joseph is joined by Yrsa Daley-Ward, author, model and co-writer of Beyoncé’s Black Is King. Up for discussion: the highs and lows of being an “Instagram poet”, and the importance of personal truth in her art – “Everything is out there.” Suzie can relate.
Join host Chanté Joseph and I Hate Suzie co-creators Billie Piper and Lucy Prebble for a revealing conversation in which the trio consider a key question: how many of us, really, could survive having the content of our phones fully scrutinised?
