Patricia Nicol • The Times UK • Jul 3, 2022
"Like all good feminists, Perez leans in, giving the producer Hannah Varrall and the researcher Patricia Clarke star billing for the dogged grunt-work of sourcing and standing up data. A thought-provoking listen, but also accountable, audio journalism to be applauded."

Fiona Sturges • Financial Times • Jun 20, 2022
"While it will hardly be news to female listeners that society nearly always favours men, the extent of the gender gap is starkly demonstrated. Visible Women paints a damning picture of institutional bias and ineptitude, even if some of Criado Perez’s findings border on the comical."

"Expect deep analysis, data and insightful perspectives."

Miranda Sawyer • The Guardian • Jun 18, 2022
"She’s so obsessed with standards that the podcast gives her a little jingle for every time she says the word. She keeps asking. ...the overall feel of this podcast is positive. It’s looking for solutions, plus, unlike the book, Criado Perez has other women working with her: a data journalist and a producer. This podcast gives us a lot to take in, but all is presented in a determined, clear manner. A must-listen."
