Ep. 9: Lily Allen and the Terror of Divorce
This week on Syllabus, Ashby and Coco dive into Lily Allen’s latest album, West End Girl, while reflecting on a classic Anne Helen Petersen essay, Blue Marriage and the Terror of Divorce. They discuss what makes the album compelling, their feelings on celebrity divorce, and earnestly explore their own feelings about the expectations and compromises of marriage. Along the way, they reference Taylor Swift, explore whether boyfriends/husbands are embarrassing, and Coco once again brings Bravo into the conversation.
