Welcome to Get Around To It, the culture podcast for curious people - presented by arts journalists Aoife Barry and Lauren Murphy.

DEEP DIVE episode alert! On this episode we ask: Why is Gen Z so obsessed with the show Girls?

We revisit the show Girls - created by Lena Dunham - and ask why youngsters are so obsessed. This requires a lot of recalling the era of indie sleaze, feminist girl bosses and asking why on earth people care so much about what Dunham looks like.

PLUS - Lauren counts down her top 5 shows about female friendship.
