In this episode I sat down with Emily Hanks. Emily is a content creator and host of the podcasts She Speaks Bravo, where she talks about all things Bravo from Housewives to Vanderpump Rules and everything in between, and She Speaks It All, where she talks about great television from other networks. This conversation was a fun one centered around one of our favorite shows Project Runway, now in its All Star Season. We discuss the evolution of the show from Season one to now, our thoughts on Season 20 so far, how the show has progressed in regards to diversity of models and clientele, and the fact that it still has quite a ways to go in regards to disability representation and advocate for change. And we tried our best, but there will be spoilers.
