Description
This episode of Sentimental Garbage is pretty blue so maybe don’t listen with kids in the car. This week we’re talking sex, lies, class and Oxford University with Louise Mensch’s 1995 debut Career Girls.

Erections are bursting against jeans, curves are being poured into tiny dresses, and good God is it compelling.Music by Harry Harris, artwork by Gavin Day. Recorded at Acast and produced by Hannah Varrall.
