1
00:00:00,680 --> 00:00:03,520
Speaker 1: On the beck Del Cast, the questions asked if movies

2
00:00:03,560 --> 00:00:07,200
Speaker 1: have women in um, are all their discussions just boyfriends

3
00:00:07,200 --> 00:00:11,520
Speaker 1: and husbands or do they have individualism the patriarchy? Zef

4
00:00:11,520 --> 00:00:16,479
Speaker 1: invest start changing it with the Bedel Cast. Hello and

5
00:00:16,520 --> 00:00:19,599
Speaker 1: welcome to the Bechdel Cast. Hi, it's us again, it does.

6
00:00:19,640 --> 00:00:23,000
Speaker 1: It's Caitlin and Jamie and we're here for a special

7
00:00:23,440 --> 00:00:28,760
Speaker 1: and short Thanksgiving minisode. So sorry if you're home and then, like, man,

8
00:00:28,800 --> 00:00:31,480
Speaker 1: I wish I had content to consume instead of talking

9
00:00:31,520 --> 00:00:35,240
Speaker 1: to my family, And you're probably right to feel that way.

10
00:00:35,320 --> 00:00:41,159
Speaker 1: But we even even us content creators, toiling the content

11
00:00:41,159 --> 00:00:44,400
Speaker 1: factory all day and freaking night, we gotta take a break,

12
00:00:44,800 --> 00:00:47,440
Speaker 1: freaking rest man. So we're going to take this opportunity

13
00:00:47,560 --> 00:00:51,199
Speaker 1: instead instead of doing heavy discourse, which you've come to

14
00:00:51,280 --> 00:00:54,880
Speaker 1: know and love, we're gonna just say thanks to a

15
00:00:54,920 --> 00:00:58,640
Speaker 1: bunch of people. Yeah. So so these are yeah, people

16
00:00:58,760 --> 00:01:02,600
Speaker 1: were thankful for we. You know, we don't recognize Thanksgiving

17
00:01:02,680 --> 00:01:06,280
Speaker 1: because it's it's not a holiday that I observe personally.

18
00:01:06,360 --> 00:01:09,199
Speaker 1: I will be watching Titanic on a loop on this day,

19
00:01:09,240 --> 00:01:12,920
Speaker 1: but I will binge eat, yes, But I don't like

20
00:01:13,840 --> 00:01:17,880
Speaker 1: thanks stands for I like what binge eating stands for

21
00:01:18,840 --> 00:01:28,640
Speaker 1: is compartmentalizing pain. That's right. Where's that holiday? We could

22
00:01:28,680 --> 00:01:33,399
Speaker 1: adjust Thanksgiving very easily to be anyways, So here are

23
00:01:33,480 --> 00:01:36,920
Speaker 1: some some people that were thankful for that's right. First

24
00:01:36,959 --> 00:01:42,440
Speaker 1: and foremost, we would be remiss Aristotle. Aristotle a servato.

25
00:01:43,120 --> 00:01:47,280
Speaker 1: He's been our producer from the beginning, from before we

26
00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:50,800
Speaker 1: even started launching the episodes. He's been with us from

27
00:01:50,880 --> 00:01:55,400
Speaker 1: day one, so he's in the entire world. Yes, he

28
00:01:55,680 --> 00:02:00,240
Speaker 1: is the sweetest, he is the most patient, canonical, as

29
00:02:00,240 --> 00:02:06,960
Speaker 1: far as I'm concerned, the only man. There's a few others, Okay, yes,

30
00:02:07,320 --> 00:02:10,720
Speaker 1: Alfred Aristotle, and then we'll get to there's there are

31
00:02:10,720 --> 00:02:15,920
Speaker 1: a few men will recognize. But I want to say

32
00:02:15,919 --> 00:02:18,280
Speaker 1: that it's it's not often that you, you know, you

33
00:02:18,360 --> 00:02:22,239
Speaker 1: find a man who is so supportive of the message

34
00:02:22,320 --> 00:02:25,760
Speaker 1: that we deliver here on the Becto cast of you know,

35
00:02:25,840 --> 00:02:31,919
Speaker 1: gender equality and intersectional feminism and walk the goddamn walk

36
00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:37,600
Speaker 1: and literally walks women to abortion clinics. So he's the

37
00:02:37,680 --> 00:02:40,880
Speaker 1: he's the model after which all men should model themselves.

38
00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:43,880
Speaker 1: That's right. So Aristotle, thank you so much for all

39
00:02:44,160 --> 00:02:47,680
Speaker 1: the time and hard work you've put into making sure

40
00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:51,160
Speaker 1: this podcast is actually a podcast and not just a

41
00:02:51,160 --> 00:02:54,600
Speaker 1: bunch of goofs and talking into a void. And and

42
00:02:54,639 --> 00:02:56,600
Speaker 1: in a year where we've had a lot of changes

43
00:02:56,720 --> 00:02:59,080
Speaker 1: in our not I mean, the show hasn't changed, but

44
00:02:59,120 --> 00:03:02,799
Speaker 1: the behind the scenes of was crazy. So we're we're

45
00:03:02,880 --> 00:03:04,480
Speaker 1: grateful that he's been with us the whole time and

46
00:03:04,520 --> 00:03:06,080
Speaker 1: stays with us when we love him. That's right. And

47
00:03:06,080 --> 00:03:08,600
Speaker 1: speaking of those changes, it's time for us to thank

48
00:03:08,680 --> 00:03:12,280
Speaker 1: our other producer, Sophie Lichtman. Yeah, Sophie came into our

49
00:03:12,320 --> 00:03:15,000

55
00:03:31,440 --> 00:03:35,760
Speaker 1: She's like regretting it, but we're thankful she hasn't said

56
00:03:35,760 --> 00:03:40,800
Speaker 1: that to our faces, and so you know, that's good.

00:06:19,839 --> 00:06:21,839
Speaker 1: them on the show. My mom always tells me that

104
00:06:21,880 --> 00:06:24,200
Speaker 1: she looks up everyone we ever have as a guest

105
00:06:24,440 --> 00:06:27,000

106
00:06:27,200 --> 00:06:30,440

107
00:06:30,720 --> 00:06:34,080

108
00:06:34,240 --> 00:06:38,200
Speaker 1: Did you eBay? Who is so that is? You know?

109
00:06:38,320 --> 00:06:41,400
Speaker 1: Her main takeaway from literally my mom's main take I'm

110
00:06:41,400 --> 00:06:45,080
Speaker 1: she's not on the list. And here's why she's not

111
00:06:45,120 --> 00:06:48,000
Speaker 1: on the list, because her main takeaway from our shows

112
00:06:48,040 --> 00:06:51,640
Speaker 1: that she loves punch Up the Jam and she loves

113
00:06:51,680 --> 00:06:54,720
Speaker 1: Demi and Meal. Those are her two favorite episodes. And

114
00:06:54,760 --> 00:06:57,280
Speaker 1: she's just like, I just love Punch Up the Jam.

115
00:06:57,400 --> 00:07:00,359
Speaker 1: I'm like, you know what, it's a good know, but

116
00:07:00,600 --> 00:07:02,839
Speaker 1: that's not why I told you to listen in that.

117
00:07:03,760 --> 00:07:07,120
Speaker 1: So anyways, my mom's a huge Punch Up the Jam fan.

118
00:07:07,400 --> 00:07:09,120
Speaker 1: Good for to show that is not on this network.

119
00:07:09,200 --> 00:07:10,840
Speaker 1: So thank you so much, mom, if you're not on

120
00:07:10,880 --> 00:07:14,920
Speaker 1: the list. I wanted to think any writers who have

Speaker 1: good for you. And I always want to say that,

242
00:14:43,440 --> 00:14:48,000
Speaker 1: like we get messages from fans brag chopped out the

243
00:14:48,080 --> 00:14:52,400
Speaker 1: same thing they'll say things like this podcast has helped

244
00:14:52,400 --> 00:14:55,360
Speaker 1: me get through a difficult time, or they'll say like

245
00:14:55,440 --> 00:14:57,920
Speaker 1: this podcast has completely changed the way that I view

246
00:14:58,000 --> 00:15:00,680
Speaker 1: movies and has made me a more critic cool consumer

247
00:15:00,720 --> 00:15:04,680
Speaker 1: of media. Or they'll say something like, um, listening to

248
00:15:04,680 --> 00:15:08,080
Speaker 1: your podcast empowered me to stand up for myself or

249
00:15:08,200 --> 00:15:11,239
Speaker 1: to kind of speak out in the name of feminism

250
00:15:11,400 --> 00:15:15,240
Speaker 1: and female empowerment. So thank you to anyone who sent

251
00:15:15,360 --> 00:15:18,280
Speaker 1: us a message like that, because that is why we

252
00:15:18,360 --> 00:15:23,480
Speaker 1: do the show, to help people view media differently, and

253
00:15:23,600 --> 00:15:28,520
Speaker 1: to empower people, and to entertain you hopefully too. Yes,

254
00:15:28,600 --> 00:15:31,240
Speaker 1: and especially what's been valuable to me, and I think

255
00:15:31,240 --> 00:15:35,280
Speaker 1: what always makes our show better is when our listeners

256
00:15:35,280 --> 00:15:38,120
Speaker 1: are able to educate us. And if there are issues

257
00:15:38,160 --> 00:15:41,240
Speaker 1: on the show where sometimes you know, Caitlin, myself and

258
00:15:41,320 --> 00:15:43,880
Speaker 1: sometimes our guests between the three of us were not

259
00:15:44,000 --> 00:15:48,040
Speaker 1: able to fully understand a complicated Yeah, we definitely have

260
00:15:48,120 --> 00:15:51,080
Speaker 1: blind spots, And I mean it's the never ending quest

261
00:15:51,200 --> 00:15:54,080
Speaker 1: to understand a little better and always be listening. And

262
00:15:54,240 --> 00:15:58,280
Speaker 1: that certainly applies to our listeners who I've I mean,

263
00:15:58,320 --> 00:16:01,920
Speaker 1: I've learned so much, mean even thinking about We talked

264
00:16:01,920 --> 00:16:04,640
Speaker 1: about this a lot in our hundredth episode, but like

265
00:16:04,920 --> 00:16:09,600
Speaker 1: how differently I view stuff than I did two years

266
00:16:09,600 --> 00:16:11,200
Speaker 1: ago when we started the show. I mean, I think

267
00:16:11,240 --> 00:16:13,080
Speaker 1: about some of our early episodes where it's like the

268
00:16:13,200 --> 00:16:18,440
Speaker 1: blind Spot are out sweet uh and and I'm sure

269
00:16:18,600 --> 00:16:22,040
Speaker 1: you know ideally will feel that way about us right

270
00:16:22,080 --> 00:16:25,880
Speaker 1: now in two years from right, So yes, learning from

271
00:16:25,880 --> 00:16:27,920
Speaker 1: from all of yous has just been such a so

272
00:16:28,000 --> 00:16:32,320
Speaker 1: wonderfu leasure. Yes, thank you so much. And I said

273
00:16:32,320 --> 00:16:35,480
Speaker 1: this last year on our little Thanksgiving episode, but I

274
00:16:35,520 --> 00:16:37,840
Speaker 1: will say it again. I just want to say thanks

275
00:16:37,880 --> 00:16:42,960
Speaker 1: to all the women, non binary, queer people of color,

276
00:16:43,720 --> 00:16:50,040
Speaker 1: the filmmakers, comedians, writers and entertainers right yes, um, because

277
00:16:50,080 --> 00:16:53,840
Speaker 1: some of my favorite example is the pop culture detective

278
00:16:54,360 --> 00:16:58,640
Speaker 1: Jonathan McIntosh, who's making great video essays about toxic masculinity

279
00:16:58,840 --> 00:17:01,440
Speaker 1: and the like in media and how we need to

280
00:17:01,880 --> 00:17:05,439
Speaker 1: have conversations about it and reverse those bad trends and tropes.

281
00:17:05,760 --> 00:17:08,320
Speaker 1: But um, yeah, I just wanna say thanks to all

282
00:17:08,320 --> 00:17:11,720
Speaker 1: the people who are making things and creating art and

283
00:17:11,760 --> 00:17:15,040
Speaker 1: telling their stories. But I also I have to say

284
00:17:15,080 --> 00:17:18,080
Speaker 1: thanks to all the people who funked up real bad

285
00:17:18,200 --> 00:17:21,720
Speaker 1: and and made bad movies because it gives us things

286
00:17:21,760 --> 00:17:26,080
Speaker 1: to talk about shots, shouts out to all the major

287
00:17:26,240 --> 00:17:32,040
Speaker 1: fucos out there who are making bed stuffy, and also

288
00:17:32,040 --> 00:17:34,040
Speaker 1: shout out to the occasional very good movie that we

289
00:17:34,080 --> 00:17:38,280
Speaker 1: cover in the shop ye I mean yeah, And and

290
00:17:38,480 --> 00:17:41,679
Speaker 1: to any of our male listeners, we also appreciate you.

291
00:17:41,760 --> 00:17:44,400
Speaker 1: And it's one of uh. One something that always sort

292
00:17:44,400 --> 00:17:47,639
Speaker 1: of resonates with me when hearing from a male listener

293
00:17:47,840 --> 00:17:51,120
Speaker 1: is that it, you know, just affects their worldview and

294
00:17:51,640 --> 00:17:54,679
Speaker 1: makes some view media a little differently because you know

295
00:17:54,760 --> 00:17:58,480
Speaker 1: it was made for you, and so understanding that that

296
00:17:58,680 --> 00:18:03,520
Speaker 1: is perhaps not the movie is terrific. And indeed we

297
00:18:03,520 --> 00:18:06,760
Speaker 1: appreciated we we we come down pretty hard on men

298
00:18:06,880 --> 00:18:09,280
Speaker 1: a lot, and we and we recognize that. But there

299
00:18:09,280 --> 00:18:12,080
Speaker 1: are some good ones and I wanted to thank a
