Description

Is your pain causing you to purchase? In a world where medical establishments are woefully underprepared to deal with anyone who isn’t a very average man, more people than ever are turning to femtech, a multi-billion sector providing an ever-expanding selection of (expensive) wifi-enabled breast pumps and (intrusive) glittery gold period trackers.

Join comedian and computer scientist Olga Koch and journalist Hussein Kesvani as they ask just how many details about your sex life you really need to hand over to any corporation, give your favourite products a femtech rebrand, and speak with software engineer and former startup founder Wendy Liu, author of ‘Abolish Silicon Valley: How to Liberate Technology from Capitalism’, about the demise of the girlboss.

Human Error is a Daddy’s SuperYacht production for BBC Sounds.
