By Megan Dean

Hello and welcome to the latest edition of Brazen Weekender! I'm Megan, a producer at Project Brazen, and this is the newsletter sharing the team's top picks for what to watch, read and listen to this week. Today, I've got a shocking new movie to share, as well as a moving audio feature and plenty of interesting long reads. Let's get into it!
