Episode 61: The Kings Speech and other screen royals with a stutter (with Priya)

TRANSCRIPT HERE

 

Welcome to episode 61 with a very special guest, podcaster, writer, disability advocate and YEAR 12 STUDENT, Priya from Stutter Conversation! Priya tells us all about stuttering and what it's like to have a stutter, and which on screen depictions she likes and loathes. We also take a deep dive into The Kings Speech (2010), and how accurate a depiction this might be (all british monarchy history aside- there's other podcasts for that!) Also find out Priya's advice for other content creators in highschool trying to do it all!

 

Other Films/TV discussed: Bridgerton (s1), Elite, Little, Primal Fear, One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest
