Zef 0:00:11.520 --> 0:00:16.479 invest start changing it with the Bedel Cast. Hello and 0:00:16.520 --> 0:00:19.599 welcome to the Bechdel Cast. Hi, it's us again, it does. 0:00:19.640 --> 0:00:23.000 It's Caitlin and Jamie and we're here for a special 0:00:23.440 --> 0:00:28.760 and short Thanksgiving minisode. So sorry if you're home and then, like, man, 0:00:28.800 --> 0:00:31.480 I wish I had content to consume instead of talking 0:00:31.520 --> 0:00:35.240 to my family, And you're probably right to feel that way. 0:00:35.320 --> 0:00:41.159 But we even even us content creators, toiling the content 0:00:41.159 --> 0:00:44.400 factory all day and freaking night, we gotta take a break, 0:00:44.800 --> 0:00:47.440 freaking rest man. So we're going to take this opportunity 0:00:47.560 --> 0:00:51.199 instead instead of doing heavy discourse, which you've come to 0:00:51.280 --> 0:00:54.880 know and love, we're gonna just say thanks to a 0:00:54.920 --> 0:00:58.640 bunch of people. Yeah. So so these are yeah, people 0:00:58.760 --> 0:01:02.600 were thankful for we. You know, we don't recognize Thanksgiving 0:01:02.680 --> 0:01:06.280 because it's it's not a holiday that I observe personally. 0:01:06.360 --> 0:01:09.199 I will be watching Titanic on a loop on this day, 0:01:09.240 --> 0:01:12.920 but I will binge eat, yes, But I don't like 0:01:13.840 --> 0:01:17.880 thanks stands for I like what binge eating stands for 0:01:18.840 --> 0:01:28.640 is compartmentalizing pain. That's right. Where's that holiday? We could 0:01:28.680 --> 0:01:33.399 adjust Thanksgiving very easily to be anyways, So here are 0:01:33.480 --> 0:01:36.920 some some people that were thankful for that's right. First 0:01:36.959 --> 0:01:42.440 and foremost, we would be remiss Aristotle. Aristotle a servato. 0:01:43.120 --> 0:01:47.280 He's been our producer from the beginning, from before we 0:01:47.360 --> 0:01:50.800 even started launching the episodes. He's been with us from 0:01:50.880 --> 0:01:55.400 day one, so he's in the entire world. Yes, he 0:01:55.680 --> 0:02:00.240 is the sweetest, he is the most patient, canonical, as 0:02:00.240 --> 0:02:06.960 far as I'm concerned, the only man. There's a few others, Okay, yes, 0:02:07.320 --> 0:02:10.720 Alfred Aristotle, and then we'll get to there's there are 0:02:10.720 --> 0:02:15.920 a few men will recognize. But I want to say 0:02:15.919 --> 0:02:18.280 that it's it's not often that you, you know, you 0:02:18.360 --> 0:02:22.239 find a man who is so supportive of the message 0:02:22.320 --> 0:02:25.760 that we deliver here on the Becto cast of you know, 0:02:25.840 --> 0:02:31.919 gender equality and intersectional feminism and walk the goddamn walk 0:02:32.000 --> 0:02:37.600 and literally walks women to abortion clinics. So he's the 0:02:37.680 --> 0:02:40.880 he's the model after which all men should model themselves. 0:02:41.000 --> 0:02:43.880 That's right. So Aristotle, thank you so much for all 0:02:44.160 --> 0:02:47.680 the time and hard work you've put into making sure 0:02:47.840 --> 0:02:51.160 this podcast is actually a podcast and not just a 0:02:51.160 --> 0:02:54.600 bunch of goofs and talking into a void. And and 0:02:54.639 --> 0:02:56.600 in a year where we've had a lot of changes 0:02:56.720 --> 0:02:59.080 in our not I mean, the show hasn't changed, but 0:02:59.120 --> 0:03:02.799 the behind the scenes of was crazy. So we're we're 0:03:02.880 --> 0:03:04.480 grateful that he's been with us the whole time and 0:03:04.520 --> 0:03:06.080 stays with us when we love him. That's right. And 0:03:06.080 --> 0:03:08.600 speaking of those changes, it's time for us to thank 0:03:08.680 --> 0:03:12.280 our other producer, Sophie Lichtman. Yeah, Sophie came into our 0:03:12.320 --> 0:03:15.000 life this year and we have never turned back. We've 0:03:15.040 --> 0:03:17.200 never turned back, as I understand it. So she is 0:03:17.240 --> 0:03:21.079 our producer at How Stuff Works, our network, and as 0:03:21.080 --> 0:03:25.080 I understand it, she begged the powers that be to 0:03:25.160 --> 0:03:28.400 work on our show. Really yeah, she's like, put me 0:03:28.520 --> 0:03:31.320 on back toel cast, I want to work on that. 0:03:31.440 --> 0:03:35.760 She's like regretting it, but we're thankful she hasn't said 0:03:35.760 --> 0:03:40.800 that to our faces, and so you know, that's good. 0:03:40.840 --> 0:03:44.600 That's great.

I hope you're 0:14:35.880 --> 0:14:38.680 having a good holiday, and if you're not, I hope 0:14:38.680 --> 0:14:40.480 you get revenge on the person who made it not 0:14:40.560 --> 0:14:43.400 good for you. And I always want to say that, 0:14:43.440 --> 0:14:48.000 like we get messages from fans brag chopped out the 0:14:48.080 --> 0:14:52.400 same thing they'll say things like this podcast has helped 0:14:52.400 --> 0:14:55.360 me get through a difficult time, or they'll say like 0:14:55.440 --> 0:14:57.920 this podcast has completely changed the way that I view 0:14:58.000 --> 0:15:00.680 movies and has made me a more critic cool consumer 0:15:00.720 --> 0:15:04.680 of media. Or they'll say something like, um, listening to 0:15:04.680 --> 0:15:08.080 your podcast empowered me to stand up for myself or 0:15:08.200 --> 0:15:11.239 to kind of speak out in the name of feminism 0:15:11.400 --> 0:15:15.240 and female empowerment. So thank you to anyone who sent 0:15:15.360 --> 0:15:18.280 us a message like that, because that is why we 0:15:18.360 --> 0:15:23.480 do the show, to help people view media differently, and 0:15:23.600 --> 0:15:28.520 to empower people, and to entertain you hopefully too. Yes, 0:15:28.600 --> 0:15:31.240 and especially what's been valuable to me, and I think 0:15:31.240 --> 0:15:35.280 what always makes our show better is when our listeners 0:15:35.280 --> 0:15:38.120 are able to educate us. And if there are issues 0:15:38.160 --> 0:15:41.240 on the show where sometimes you know, Caitlin, myself and 0:15:41.320 --> 0:15:43.880 sometimes our guests between the three of us were not 0:15:44.000 --> 0:15:48.040 able to fully understand a complicated Yeah, we definitely have 0:15:48.120 --> 0:15:51.080 blind spots, And I mean it's the never ending quest 0:15:51.200 --> 0:15:54.080 to understand a little better and always be listening. And 0:15:54.240 --> 0:15:58.280 that certainly applies to our listeners who I've I mean, 0:15:58.320 --> 0:16:01.920 I've learned so much, mean even thinking about We talked 0:16:01.920 --> 0:16:04.640 about this a lot in our hundredth episode, but like 0:16:04.920 --> 0:16:09.600 how differently I view stuff than I did two years 0:16:09.600 --> 0:16:11.200 ago when we started the show. I mean, I think 0:16:11.240 --> 0:16:13.080 about some of our early episodes where it's like the 0:16:13.200 --> 0:16:18.440 blind Spot are out sweet uh and and I'm sure 0:16:18.600 --> 0:16:22.040 you know ideally will feel that way about us right 0:16:22.080 --> 0:16:25.880 now in two years from right, So yes, learning from 0:16:25.880 --> 0:16:27.920 from all of yous has just been such a so 0:16:28.000 --> 0:16:32.320 wonderfu leasure. Yes, thank you so much. And I said 0:16:32.320 --> 0:16:35.480 this last year on our little Thanksgiving episode, but I 0:16:35.520 --> 0:16:37.840 will say it again. I just want to say thanks 0:16:37.880 --> 0:16:42.960 to all the women, non binary, queer people of color, 0:16:43.720 --> 0:16:50.040 the filmmakers, comedians, writers and entertainers right yes, um, because 0:16:50.080 --> 0:16:53.840 some of my favorite example is the pop culture detective 0:16:54.360 --> 0:16:58.640 Jonathan McIntosh, who's making great video essays about toxic masculinity 0:16:58.840 --> 0:17:01.440 and the like in media and how we need to 0:17:01.880 --> 0:17:05.439 have conversations about it and reverse those bad trends and tropes. 0:17:05.760 --> 0:17:08.320 But um, yeah, I just wanna say thanks to all 0:17:08.320 --> 0:17:11.720 the people who are making things and creating art and 0:17:11.760 --> 0:17:15.040 telling their stories. But I also I have to say 0:17:15.080 --> 0:17:18.080 thanks to all the people who funked up real bad 0:17:18.200 --> 0:17:21.720 and and made bad movies because it gives us things 0:17:21.760 --> 0:17:26.080 to talk about shots, shouts out to all the major 0:17:26.240 --> 0:17:32.040 fucos out there who are making bed stuffy, and also 0:17:32.040 --> 0:17:34.040 shout out to the occasional very good movie that we 0:17:34.080 --> 0:17:38.280 cover in the shop ye I mean yeah, And and 0:17:38.480 --> 0:17:41.679 to any of our male listeners, we also appreciate you. 0:17:41.760 --> 0:17:44.400 And it's one of uh. One something that always sort 0:17:44.400 --> 0:17:47.639 of resonates with me when hearing from a male listener 0:17:47.840 --> 0:17:51.120 is that it, you know, just affects their worldview and 0:17:51.640 --> 0:17:54.679 makes some view media a little differently because you know 0:17:54.760 --> 0:17:58.480 it was made for you, and so understanding that that 0:17:58.680 --> 0:18:03.520 is perhaps not the movie is terrific. And indeed we 0:18:03.520 --> 0:18:06.760 appreciated we we we come down pretty hard on men 0:18:06.880 --> 0:18:09.280 a lot, and we and we recognize that. But there 0:18:09.280 --> 0:18:12.080 are some good ones and I wanted to thank a 0:18:12.080 --> 0:18:17.240 few specific ones, but some some friends of mine, and 0:18:17.359 --> 0:18:20.680 this includes people of all genders.
