…Everything Just Comes Undone

In this episode, we start things off with the very sad news of Britney and Sam’s miscarriage. Given the sensitive nature of this topic, we are putting a content warning on this episode. If you’d like to skip ahead, the lighter part of this episode begins at 17:40. Thankfully, because we are natural born procrastinators, we still had a ton of listener questions left to answer! Thank you for your submissions, we look forward to more Q&As in the future!

Britney Spears was under a conservatorship from 2008 to 2021 where all her financial and personal decisions had to be approved by her conservators, including her father, Jamie Spears. Britney earned hundreds of millions of dollars during that time, performing and touring extensively, while being deemed too impaired by the courts to be in control of her life. Britney is one of the most recognizable celebrities in the world, yet very little of the massive media coverage she generated focused on the conservatorship until the #FreeBritney movement grew within the last few years before the restrictive legal arrangement finally ended. Now that the conservatorship has been terminated, there are still an enormous amount of unanswered questions, including whether those responsible for the conservatorship will be held accountable for what Britney experienced during those 13+ years. Eat, Pray, Britney tries to draw attention to the restrictive constraints Britney was under during the conservatorship, as well as her current pursuit of justice, while also examining her life and career through a feminist lens.
