Monday Mini: A Fond Farewell to 2022, Part 2 · Stuff Mom Never Told You

• 0:05
  Speaker 1: Hey, this is Annie and Samantha and welcome to Steff.
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: I've never told you protection of iHeart Radio, and we're
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: back with part two of our Little Quebec too, and
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: a little one. I guess in the last episode I
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: couldn't help it. Yeah, well it's it's nice. Like we said,
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: we do a lot, and it's kind of hard to
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: wrangle just to look through all the stuff we've done.
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: It could be hard to keep track of when we've
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: done it. And time doesn't exist anymore. Yeah, we know this. Yeah,
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: it's true, and we don't really have a great way.
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: There are ways, but we don't have a great easily
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: searchable way of looking at every episode we've done and
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: when we did it. It seems like we should, but wait, don't, no, no,
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: But you can see part one where we also have
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: some behind the scenes facts about about why and how
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: all these things come to be in the topics we
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: choose um And in that one we talked about movies
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: and our kind of quote regular episodes. But in this one,
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: we're gonna look at some of the interviews and books
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: and and stuff like that that we've talked about and
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: our favorites in those. In those categories and kind of compare. Um.
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: So starting with the book club, I'll say the book
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: club was one we had that idea pretty early on.
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: I think that was your idea as well. You know
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: that was you really, Yeah, it was you had because
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: you've been wanting to do it, apparently as a segment,
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: and you added it in. Well, We've always had the
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: concern with book club, which is a segment that I love,
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: but it does require like a reading an entire book,
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: which we do a lot for research for others. That's
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: what we do for researching the quote unquote regular too,
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: I know. So sometimes we do try to like make
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: it fit. Yeah, so if we're already reading this book,
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: maybe we can do this for a book club. It
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: doesn't usually work out that way you try, But that
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: was always the concern with it, is like, oh, I
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: want to do this, at least speaking for me, I
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: want to do it, but it's we're gonna have to
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: find time to read a book every month in a
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: timely manner, like in a month, you know. But I
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: will say, while sometimes it has been stressful, it is nice,
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: even though I guess you can make an argument either way,
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: it's nice that it's for work. It's also stressful that
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: it's for work. But because of that, I've read a
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: lot of books I wouldn't have read, which has been
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: really great, and it's it's nice to get to read
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: them and talk about them and to get paid to
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: read them and talk about them. But that that's probably
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: one of my favorite things, is I at least UM.
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: I have read a lot of things that I have
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: loved and that have like opened my mind, have alerted
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: me to other issues, have been beautiful, full have stuck
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: with me. But also we try we try to mix
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: it up. We try to a wide range of topics,
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: so it's not always like so heavy um and all
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: of those books are important. But I have enjoyed it,
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: even though it can be kind of like, oh gosh,
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: I've got to read this book. In one way, yeah,
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: you know, I think I love that this pushes us
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: to be more purposeful and actually dig deep for the
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: authors and what their intention is. In like the breakdown
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: of the types of books. So we feel like we've
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: stretched a lot of different topics and styles and I
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: love that, and I love that we have so many
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: um different authors from different backgrounds. A chunk of our
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: reading has been from marginalized people. I love that because
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: I feel like unless you're taking a core specific to that,
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: you don't ever really touch it or you don't even
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: know that it exists. And I feel like this has
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: really pushed our boundaries and I hope you're the listener
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: to look beyond what you just like to try things
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: that are new. So I've definitely enjoyed that part too. Yeah. Yeah,
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: And I would say for myself, like I would consider
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: myself someone who loves reading. A lot of that is
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: fan fiction, will admit, but I do love reading. There
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: is a certain point where you're kind of like, oh,
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: I've done work, I'm tired, and you don't like even
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: finding the book can be a lot of work. Maybe
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: you just hear from somebody, So this is nice. This
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: is nice because we do look like every month there's
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: usually some kind of theme or some kind of idea
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: we have and we'll try to dig deep into what's
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: going on. So I yeah, it's really it's been a
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: rewarding segment um for sure. One of my favorites, which
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: was a two parter and it came after an activists
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: around the world, was the intersectional Environmentalist because as I
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: said in a recent it was a round up on
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: activist around the world. I that's one of my biggest
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: issues is protecting the environment and the environment um and
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: it has been since I was quite young. But it's
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: also always kind of given me this anxiety because it
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: does get reduced down so much too. Hey just recycle,
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: which is not accessible for everybody. Like, I like that
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: this book was so needed. It was so needed. I
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: like that it examined those issues in the history of
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: them and the future of them, and it was very
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: helpful with like the resources in the back. I just
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: I loved it. Yeah, she had a whole like to
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: do or a book activity book with it, and I
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: thought that was phenomenal. It was such a great idea.
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: Discovering other environmental activists is phenomenal, and then having that
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: being intersectional, which is the issue, which is what we've
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: been talking about when we talk about indigenous activists as well. Like,
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: it's it's awesome just being able to like put that
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: and it's actually been written and put out there for
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: us to consume. Love it, Yes, yes, I love it.
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: Another one of my favorites was a tough one for
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: both you and I was crying in h mart um.
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: And it was tough for different reasons. It was beautifully written,
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: it was very moving, it was quite painful. Um. But
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: I just thought that was so because I remember I
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: had read it and I was like, I think I
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: texted you and I was like, hey, it's a really
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: great book. Just so you know, you did you try
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: to give me a warning on that one? Thank you
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: for that. Oh yeah, I loved that one and that
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: one I saw a lot on a lot of like
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: best books of two roundups. I also, again no surprise,
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: I loved the ones we kind of did around I
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: think it was around Dragon Con time, um, which again
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: I assume everyone knows what that is. It's in the
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: August beginning of September. US we're kind of quote easier
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: reads Queens of Geek and fan Girl, which was just
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: kind of an exploration of fandom and coming of age,
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: and they were really fun. I hadn't read something like
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: that in a while, and I just very much enjoyed them.
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: And you know, you know, I loved talking about fandom
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: and I had so many thoughts on on both of them.
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: So those those were up there. It was wonderfully written.
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: Rainbow right Rainbow Wrow. Yeah, yeah, Rainbow Row. Like I
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: had read her book before and I really enjoyed it,
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: and then reading this it felt so it was such
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: a well written fiction that I could see why it
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: appeals because even me not knowing quite as much, I
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: felt it. I felt the characters they were really well developed.
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: It was a great book. And I think I talked
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: about it with you right before. I was like, I
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: loved it. I couldn't get enough. I couldn't put it down.
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: Like that's a sign of a great fiction. Yeah, yes, es, yes,
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: we might have to revisit. Like I said, you can
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: read the other books in the series, maybe an upcoming
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: book club because I would love to read continue with
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: the stories. Another one I really really loved was Mexican Gothic,
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: and I was excited to read that one, and I
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: would say it exceeded my expectations. It was like a
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: good It was very like set the scene, the atmosphere,
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: there was some romance, there was some horrors around mushrooms,
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: all the stuff that makes a good book. No, I
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: really I really enjoyed it. Um And that's definitely one
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: that had been popular, was very popular as getting a show,
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: but I'm not sure if I would have read it, uh,
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: if not for for this segment. So it was it
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: was such a such a fun read. I think you
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: had picked this book out and I knew really nothing
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: about it. You gave me the choices. It is what
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: we did with each other, like this is my choices,
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: you pick one because we're very indecisive, but like I
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: really he loved it, and I talked about the fact
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: that it was very reminiscent of Weathering Highs and the
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: Bronze Sisters that I was like in Jane Eyre that
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: I'm like, yeah, everything about that is right up my alley.
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: Weirdly about mushrooms, which we had a theme for, which
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: was odd. I actually chose that as one of my
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: favorites as well, because it's it left an impression on
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: me in such a way that I was like, this
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: fills like old Gothic that I know of and loved
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: in high school, in middle and in college. Like so
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: I love that this was a new writer taking on
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: that style and it was gorgeous, gorgeous, and I really
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: loved it. So that was also one of my picks.
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: The Bridge called my back. I love short stories, you know, this.
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: I love essays and I love poems, so having that
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: all in one collection, as well as the fact that
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: these are some die hard, powerful feminists around the world.
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: I loved it. I loved everything about it. You could
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: pick and choose the different stories, and we did. We did.
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: We picked like different poems and different essays, and it
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: was so hard to choose just one because it's a
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: pretty large book and the new editions that come out.
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: But I think it's something that everybody should have. I
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: met this copy should be in uh your collection because
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: there's a lot to it. And then the way it
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: supports uh, marginalized communities and women. I think it's important
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: because it brings a lot of voices out and you
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: learn about new authors and new poems, which is important.
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: So that was one of mine persuasions. Of course, you know,
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: because it's one of my favorite books anyway, but they
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: keep reading that it was good. I love Yeah, I
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: loved it too much. Um. And then of course the
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: Little Girl who Gave Zero come on, it was so fun.
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: The illustrations are fun, the reading of the stanzas were fun,
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: and yeah, I think it's fantastic. Um. And then of
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: course we we do also want to mention Feminism is
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: for Everybody my bell hooks, and I think it's a
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: phenomenal book. Like I think it's a good easy read
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: and kind of a great introduction of why feminism is
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: important for the entire world and for everyone. So I
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: definitely want to call that one out as well. Yes, yeah,
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: we really have read some great books everybody. Yes, and
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: you have recommended a lot of them are given us suggestions,
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: so keep those in and then also you know, not
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: to toot my own horn. But I have loved I
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: feel like two is the year we really started the fiction.
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: Every month we've done some before then, Um, but I
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: have really loved it. I have loved hearing what Christina
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: does with it, uh, And I've just had a really
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: great time, especially now that we're in kind of continuing story.
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: It's been really fun to interact with you listeners about
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: it and to hear what Christina does, because Christina is amazing. Yeah. Yeah,
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: you to your own horn, because this is your creation
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: and people are eating it up and loving it. Is
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: it a little uh dark and somebody? Yes, but we
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: love it. We love it here and I think it's
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: a great mix up to what we do, especially because
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: you are a writer and this is a part of
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: one of your mini hats and you should share it,
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: and sharing it's such it feels like a privilege to
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: be able to listen to your creation. So yes, you
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: are awesome. And then Christina doing her magic always always amazing. Yeah,
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: well thank you. But that was also something we did
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: kind of purposefully because we wanted not only for the
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: audience for it to be to have some mix ups
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: between you know, movies and books and regular episodes and
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: all those stuff happy hours so it's not always the
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: same thing, but also for Christina because Christine is amazing
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: to be like, hey, would you like to try this? Um,
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: and Christina if you're listening to this, and they're like,
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: oh my gosh, no, we had a discussion about it,
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: but you can always let us know if you're tired. Um. Yeah.
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: Just the kind of give us all a chance to
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: try different things. Um. Which, speaking of I moving on
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: to kind of like interviews or when we bring people
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: on the show, because that that's also a mixed up
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: for us and for the listener. Uh, and they're great.
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: One of the my favorite interviews we've done was with
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: Gatgi Juny Fox. Um. That was just such inspiring interview. Uh.
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: And it was so cool to hear about her future
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: projects and all of the thought that went into the
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: documentary that she had done. Um. So that was a
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: big one. I really loved a d H D Kink
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: and sex with Kate Osborne. Um. That was a really
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: informative one. And I feel like we made a friend.
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: We did I hope so I interview, we were like,
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: we went to brunch with her, We need to do
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: another brunch session with her, Yes, we do see what
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: else is going on? Also, the interview we did with
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: Margaret Killjoy I loved. It's just always so cool when
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: we have people on who are doing these amazing things
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: and who can bring so much to the conversation that
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: we just couldn't. So we're internally eternally grateful to people
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: come on the show to speak with this. Well, obviously
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: I love it because I feel like this is how
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: I make friends Now. I told you that was my
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: goal when I started this podcast. And yeah, I'm like,
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: I definitely uh enjoyed all of these interviews. Fox was
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: an amazing interview to me because we discovered so much
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: about history that has been left out and I think
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: it's so important that we keep talking about it because
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: we don't want it to die out again. UM and
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: her information, her documentary, her her digging UM and her
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: showing us like giving us the privilege to see something
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: that is so sacred, such as all the different rituals UM,
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: all of the titles within their community. It was phenomenal.
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: And having her on the show, of course, I was
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: flustered as per usual and and fan girling because she
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: does amazing work and she has done some amazing things
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: for her community and really bringing around UH the history
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: for us to learn. So being a part of that
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: felt exciting. Yeah, it's and I did not sust it.
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: I felt that And then yeah, like I said, Kate,
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: I'm like your friend, we're friends, and I feel like
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: there's so much more information she can give us, especial
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: in the world of UH world. Bye web UM content creating,
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: and I want to come back and hopefully we can
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: get our back on the show to talk a little
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: more about her other projects, because I think they're phenomenal
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: and that brings a lot of attention to UM stigmas
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: that we've talked about for so long that needs to
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: be gone so I loved that interview. Anytime, just anybody
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: who comes on and get really excited. Yes, yes, And
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: as we said in our I think our wrap up
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: of activists around the world, we said, we're trying to
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: do more interviews in a way that is feasible and
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: it's not going to stress everybody out, So right, hopefully
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: that will happen. And we've already gotten some suggestions from
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: your listeners, so keep those coming in as well. And
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: then our episodes always that we have with Yeves female
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: first are amazing. Um. She always comes in with somebody
• 16:04
  Speaker 1: that I'm like furious I haven't heard of before but
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: so eager to have heard of, but now from her,
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: she does a great job. And then Bridget. When Bridget
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: comes on, UM always brings something that is like relevant
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: and important and showcases how much tech is an issue
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: when it comes to feminism. Some of my favorites that
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: she did with us two is abortion is a tech issue,
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: and of course the Sculliar fact we both kind of
• 16:36
  Speaker 1: nerded out about the X Files. It was great. It
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: was hilarious because we'd already kind of talked about Scully
• 16:42
  Speaker 1: and her pants suit and awakening everybody's bisexuality apparently, but
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: like the fact that you guys really had a deep
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: conversation about the impact of this character and why representation matters. Um,
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: And it's a white woman, so even for that, but
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: you still didn't see many women playing those types of
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: roles in general, and hopefully we will continue to step
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: up the representations. But yeah, I really enjoyed that too. Um.
• 17:10
  Speaker 1: With the eas episode, she teaches us so much and
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: I always go off on tangent because it's so either
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: heartening or disheartening that they are just being discovered or
• 17:19
  Speaker 1: you know, like there's such a mixed bag of emotions.
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: And then the conversation we continually have to have is
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: this is what we know right now, but there could
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: be more discoveries, and hopefully there will be more discoveries
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: because we know people have been doing these things. People
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: in the marginalized communities most likely have done it before
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: and just has not been recognized. And it's kind of
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: frustrating but at the same time exciting. A fun Mooi
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: was one that's more historical context, and I love hearing
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: about her as the first allegedly Chinese woman in the
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: United States. Uh to me, of course, Asian culture is
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: really fascinating. So hearing that kind of history is always
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: good to know, um, as well as the Unit's Foot
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: that her work in medicine, like that's such an amazing thing,
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: and we've talked about this continually because even today, women
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: aren't getting credit for today's work. Uh So having a
• 18:07
  Speaker 1: historical context to see in the eighteen fifties of what
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: she discovered and what she did and the foundations she
• 18:13
  Speaker 1: laid and finally getting her do like that was an
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: awesome episode just to see because we're seeing that today
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: and we're hoping that we can change that pattern essentially,
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: So talking about Unit's Foot and the work she did
• 18:25
  Speaker 1: does have a bigger implication of crediting women in stem essentially.
• 18:30
  Speaker 1: So I thought that was a really important episode. Yeah,
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: as for a Bridget, every time we get on here,
• 18:34
  Speaker 1: we always like go off on great conversation and topics
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: and like dig into theories, and that's that's such a
• 18:41
  Speaker 1: different level. The Meg and Markle and the single Users
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: episode really like and we're talking about today because we
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: know a lot is happening with the royal family. It
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: was trending on your Twitter badly enough. UM, not mine though, um.
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: But I thought that was a big conversation, especially when
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: it comes to race and bots and all of the
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: different things and attacks. Being constantly aware of that and
• 19:03
  Speaker 1: bringing that to the forefront I felt was so important
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: as well as Evan Rachel would an accountability because we
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: still have to have this conversation because as I was
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: talking about the previous episode about Brooke Shield, she had
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: a lawsuit against Playboy to try to take that down,
• 19:17
  Speaker 1: but she lost in New York based on some uh
• 19:21
  Speaker 1: side uh code of models, so she was claimed as
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: a model and not a child. So this is sort
• 19:27
  Speaker 1: of professional work, Like that's a conversation about it, and
• 19:30
  Speaker 1: it is still out there. That photo from that publication
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: is still out there. I don't understand why this is
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: not classified as child porn. I have so many questions,
• 19:41
  Speaker 1: but this conversation about a tech accountability and why it's
• 19:44
  Speaker 1: still out there, and why they're allowing these things which
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: are violating women's rights and violating women's privacy and violating
• 19:51
  Speaker 1: a lot of people, um in so many ways. And
• 19:54
  Speaker 1: it's a repeated violation because it's constantly a reminder and
• 19:57
  Speaker 1: it's out there. So I thought it was such a
• 19:59
  Speaker 1: big and important station that she brought and I love
• 20:01
  Speaker 1: the fact that we were able to talk about it
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: and then call out the men who are really always good. Yeah,
• 20:09
  Speaker 1: we need to revisit that one. Yeah. Well, uh, final
• 20:14
  Speaker 1: final call out. We always loved doing the listener mail segments.
• 20:17
  Speaker 1: We got to play wey Haven thanks to listener Amanda,
• 20:21
  Speaker 1: who came on sent us an audio clip about why
• 20:26
  Speaker 1: weh Haven impacted Amanda, and that was so fun. We
• 20:30
  Speaker 1: had a great Amanda. I'm waiting for addition number three.
• 20:34
  Speaker 1: Someone give me an update because I played one into
• 20:37
  Speaker 1: a lot. I need the third one supposed to come
• 20:40
  Speaker 1: out this year. Maybe we should revisit this too. Maybe
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: we should revisit I think that'd be great. Uh. And
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: then we had Jamie Summers, who's been a longtime supportive
• 20:51
  Speaker 1: listener of us, uh come on and talk about Twitch
• 20:56
  Speaker 1: and Jamie's experience on Twitch. So that was great too,
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: uh And we are looking into doing more of that.
• 21:03

• 21:05
