North Mollywood: The Blac Chyna of The Kardashian Wiburys

This week on Lady Problems, MTV News's podcast that looks at how pop culture treats women, Hazel Cills and Rachel Handler allow the Lady Problems podcast model to temporarily implode so that they can interview the inimitable Stacy London. Stacy hosted What Not To Wear for 10 straight years and has continued to be a beacon of no-bullshit, offering women advice on everything from style to aging to self-image. Earlier this month, Stacy wrote a piece for Refinery29 explaining that, at as she gets older, her "trouser pockets are filled with fewer and fewer fucks" when it comes to style rules and societal expectations for women over 40. In this episode, we have a wide-ranging conversation with Stacy about her scorching piece, backstage gossip from the Emmys red carpet, whether or not the #AskHerMore campaign makes any sense, Brangelina and Holland Taylor and Sarah Paulson (we told you it was wide-ranging, y'all), how she feels about ending up on a few Worst Dressed lists this week, and, of course, what the hell we should all be wearing.

Lady Problems EP2: No-Bullshit Goddess Stacy London With Some Great Backstage Emmys Gossip

Welcome to “The Stakes,” where we’re coming to you from a terribly familiar position. Over the summer, we found ourselves on something of an editorial hamster wheel on more than one occasion, as we struggled to put together a weekly magazine show that couldn’t keep up with the sheer volume of shooting deaths in this country. We open our show this week by parsing that tension as best we can. Coming up:

- Our political writer Jaime Fuller speaks with Carlos Watson, host of a new show on PBS called The Contenders: 16 for ’16, about the presidential campaigns in history that can help put even this shit show into context.

- Podcast producer Mukta Mohan talks to Adi Rajkovic, one of the young artists featured in a virtual reality protest art show MTV is curating as part of its Elect This campaign.

- Courtney Martin, author of a new book called The New Better Off: Reinventing the American Dream, tells MTV Founders’s deputy editor Julie Zeilinger what that reinvention looks like.

- We end our time together down in Tennessee, with a piece by MTV News’s resident poet/journalist Marcus Ellsworth.

The Stakes: Alive and Aware

New York-based art-pop band The Blow (Khaela Maricich and Melissa Dyne) have been making music for over a decade, but it was only recently that they discovered an under appreciated history of women in sound and music production. While male producers and musicians like Phillip Glass and Steve Reich have been written about and documented extensively, the work of women producers and early electronic musicians like Wendy Carlos, Laurie Spiegel, Delia Derbyshire and more have essentially been ignored and undervalued by music historians. To combat the stereotype that production is solely a man's job, The Blow created the online archive Womanproducer.com to collect photos and clips of women producers in history. And recently the archive has expanded into a live event series at Brooklyn's National Sawdust, featuring performances and talks by artists like Zola Jesus, Neko Case and more.

Here, we talk to Maricich and Dyne about what compelled them to start the archive, the importance of recording the act of women producing and working in their studios, and why it's still so hard to see women artists as producers and makers of their own sonic universes.
