Elizabeth Taylor is remembered for her beauty, her diamonds and her many, many husbands. But her most enduring legacy may be her decidedly feminist films.

Lord about her book, “The Accidental Feminist: How Elizabeth Taylor Raised Our Consciousness and We Were Too Distracted by Her Beauty to Notice,” how the Liz Taylor broke the censorship of the production code, and how she build a feminist legacy from her character, Leslie Benedict.Listen ad free with Wondery+.

Our lives can be crazy, but you can take a break from it all with Wondery’s new series, Even the Rich, where co-hosts Brooke Siffrinn and Aricia Skidmore-Williams pull back the curtain and chat about someone else’s craziness for a change. They tell stories about some of the greatest family dynasties in history, from the Murdochs to the Royals to the Carters (Jay-Z and Beyoncé, that is). Because as Queen Elizabeth once said, “A good gossip is a wonderful tonic.”
