About this listen

Tune in as Gracie and Ellen dive headfirst into the maze of Agatha Christie's legacy, dissecting the troubling waters of racism within her iconic tales. While they're both dead-set on condemning any shade of racism, they're caught in a tug-of-war over historical context's role – is it a shield or just another excuse? And can we ever truly love a story and give the side-eye to its creator? Ellen thinks so, but Gracie? Not so sure. As they peel back the layers of this latest episode of Poirot, they stumble upon a fresh can of worms – Orientalism. So, if you're up for a rollercoaster chat that zigzags from age-old debates to the glaring lights of modern TV, Gracie and Ellen have got your ticket.
