What Is This Hot Mess? is a fun yet insightful podcast that merges the personal and political to look at the running joke that is our world. In a world where we constantly feel like every major event feels like a bad punchline, the podcast seeks to have in-depth conversations with those who are trying to make sure the punchline doesn’t end us all.
The podcast features conversations with feminists, freedom fighters and front-line defenders that dive deep into the world of ‘superheroes who do not wear capes’ exploring the ways in which these amazing people are fierce and fantastic but also flawed. A fun and engaging look into the work (and lives) of feminists around the globe, the podcast will sit down with feminists from around the world and ask them not only about their incredible work but for a more personal take on their politics.
This notion of What Is This Hot Mess? speaks not only to the cruel joke that is reality at the moment but also challenges the idea that feminists are chronically serious killjoys. The podcast is a time for guests to not only speak on things important to them but also have a relaxed conversation where guests can bring a holistic version of themselves to the space. Tackling everything from fighting oppression to fighting fatigue, the podcast will be a light-hearted but in-depth look at how feminists and front-line defenders who are pushing back against a wave of anti-rights, fascism and general destruction.
It is an (un)serious look at the people trying to help us through this time, where you do not know whether to laugh or cry.

In this messy episode, Tiffany Mugo sits down with Mona Eltahawy to talk about transitioning into menopause, figuring out love and dating and how the medical gender gap is out of control. Having agency and control is something that is hard earned (because sometimes it feels like even your body is fighting you), but the goal is to free yourself. And spend more energy on researching the female body and less on making things hard.
Welcome to What Is This Hot Mess? a podcast looking at all the ways the world is hot trash right now and the ways some brilliant feminists are cleaning it up. Sitting with people from all corners of the globe, this podcast hosted by Tiffany Kagure Mugo is an entertaining, insightful and (sometimes) wild ride that tackles a bunch of 'f words': feminists, fascism and a little bit of fun.
