1
00:00:05,120 --> 00:00:07,560
Speaker 1: Hey, this is Annie and Samantha and welcome to Steff.

2
00:00:07,560 --> 00:00:18,960
Speaker 1: I've never told you protection of iHeart Radio, and we're

3
00:00:19,000 --> 00:00:23,560
Speaker 1: back with part two of our Little Quebec too, and

4
00:00:23,680 --> 00:00:27,479
Speaker 1: a little one. I guess in the last episode I

5
00:00:27,480 --> 00:00:31,360
Speaker 1: couldn't help it. Yeah, well it's it's nice. Like we said,

6
00:00:31,400 --> 00:00:33,000
Speaker 1: we do a lot, and it's kind of hard to

7
00:00:33,040 --> 00:00:35,199
Speaker 1: wrangle just to look through all the stuff we've done.

8
00:00:35,200 --> 00:00:36,880
Speaker 1: It could be hard to keep track of when we've

9
00:00:36,920 --> 00:00:43,400
Speaker 1: done it. And time doesn't exist anymore. Yeah, we know this. Yeah,

10
00:00:43,880 --> 00:00:47,400
Speaker 1: it's true, and we don't really have a great way.

11
00:00:47,440 --> 00:00:49,560
Speaker 1: There are ways, but we don't have a great easily

12
00:00:49,600 --> 00:00:52,199
Speaker 1: searchable way of looking at every episode we've done and

13
00:00:52,240 --> 00:00:58,080
Speaker 1: when we did it. It seems like we should, but wait, don't, no, no,

14
00:00:58,720 --> 00:01:01,440
Speaker 1: But you can see part one where we also have

15
00:01:01,600 --> 00:01:05,080
Speaker 1: some behind the scenes facts about about why and how

16
00:01:05,240 --> 00:01:07,240
Speaker 1: all these things come to be in the topics we

17
00:01:07,319 --> 00:01:11,880
Speaker 1: choose um And in that one we talked about movies

18
00:01:12,240 --> 00:01:15,920
Speaker 1: and our kind of quote regular episodes. But in this one,

19
00:01:16,720 --> 00:01:20,520
Speaker 1: we're gonna look at some of the interviews and books

20
00:01:20,760 --> 00:01:23,680
Speaker 1: and and stuff like that that we've talked about and

21
00:01:23,920 --> 00:01:28,600
Speaker 1: our favorites in those. In those categories and kind of compare. Um.

22
00:01:28,800 --> 00:01:31,479
Speaker 1: So starting with the book club, I'll say the book

23
00:01:31,480 --> 00:01:33,600
Speaker 1: club was one we had that idea pretty early on.

24
00:01:33,640 --> 00:01:36,800
Speaker 1: I think that was your idea as well. You know

25
00:01:36,920 --> 00:01:40,080
Speaker 1: that was you really, Yeah, it was you had because

26
00:01:40,080 --> 00:01:42,440
Speaker 1: you've been wanting to do it, apparently as a segment,

27
00:01:42,520 --> 00:01:46,720
Speaker 1: and you added it in. Well, We've always had the

28
00:01:46,720 --> 00:01:49,640
Speaker 1: concern with book club, which is a segment that I love,

29
00:01:50,160 --> 00:01:52,840
Speaker 1: but it does require like a reading an entire book,

30
00:01:53,120 --> 00:01:55,880
Speaker 1: which we do a lot for research for others. That's

31
00:01:55,920 --> 00:01:58,640
Speaker 1: what we do for researching the quote unquote regular too,

32
00:01:58,800 --> 00:02:02,560
Speaker 1: I know. So sometimes we do try to like make

33
00:02:02,600 --> 00:02:05,840
Speaker 1: it fit. Yeah, so if we're already reading this book,

34
00:02:05,840 --> 00:02:07,240
Speaker 1: maybe we can do this for a book club. It

35
00:02:07,240 --> 00:02:10,760
Speaker 1: doesn't usually work out that way you try, But that

36
00:02:10,840 --> 00:02:14,320
Speaker 1: was always the concern with it, is like, oh, I

37
00:02:14,400 --> 00:02:16,120
Speaker 1: want to do this, at least speaking for me, I

38
00:02:16,120 --> 00:02:18,560
Speaker 1: want to do it, but it's we're gonna have to

39
00:02:18,560 --> 00:02:21,280
Speaker 1: find time to read a book every month in a

40
00:02:21,360 --> 00:02:24,640
Speaker 1: timely manner, like in a month, you know. But I

41
00:02:24,680 --> 00:02:29,920
Speaker 1: will say, while sometimes it has been stressful, it is nice,

42
00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:32,440
Speaker 1: even though I guess you can make an argument either way,

43
00:02:32,440 --> 00:02:34,120
Speaker 1: it's nice that it's for work. It's also stressful that

44
00:02:34,200 --> 00:02:36,400
Speaker 1: it's for work. But because of that, I've read a

45
00:02:36,440 --> 00:02:40,040
Speaker 1: lot of books I wouldn't have read, which has been

46
00:02:40,080 --> 00:02:43,040
Speaker 1: really great, and it's it's nice to get to read

47
00:02:43,080 --> 00:02:44,560
Speaker 1: them and talk about them and to get paid to

48
00:02:44,600 --> 00:02:48,160
Speaker 1: read them and talk about them. But that that's probably

49
00:02:48,160 --> 00:02:52,200
Speaker 1: one of my favorite things, is I at least UM.

50
00:02:52,320 --> 00:02:53,800
Speaker 1: I have read a lot of things that I have

51
00:02:53,919 --> 00:02:58,359
Speaker 1: loved and that have like opened my mind, have alerted

52
00:02:58,360 --> 00:03:01,160
Speaker 1: me to other issues, have been beautiful, full have stuck

53
00:03:01,200 --> 00:03:03,320
Speaker 1: with me. But also we try we try to mix

54
00:03:03,320 --> 00:03:06,760
Speaker 1: it up. We try to a wide range of topics,

55
00:03:06,800 --> 00:03:10,799
Speaker 1: so it's not always like so heavy um and all

56
00:03:10,840 --> 00:03:13,680
Speaker 1: of those books are important. But I have enjoyed it,

57
00:03:13,720 --> 00:03:15,640
Speaker 1: even though it can be kind of like, oh gosh,

58
00:03:15,720 --> 00:03:18,240
Speaker 1: I've got to read this book. In one way, yeah,

59
00:03:18,600 --> 00:03:21,520
Speaker 1: you know, I think I love that this pushes us

60
00:03:21,919 --> 00:03:25,919
Speaker 1: to be more purposeful and actually dig deep for the

61
00:03:25,960 --> 00:03:29,600
Speaker 1: authors and what their intention is. In like the breakdown

62
00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:32,000
Speaker 1: of the types of books. So we feel like we've

63
00:03:32,040 --> 00:03:36,040
Speaker 1: stretched a lot of different topics and styles and I

64
00:03:36,120 --> 00:03:38,240
Speaker 1: love that, and I love that we have so many

65
00:03:38,560 --> 00:03:41,720
Speaker 1: um different authors from different backgrounds. A chunk of our

66
00:03:41,760 --> 00:03:45,520
Speaker 1: reading has been from marginalized people. I love that because

67
00:03:45,520 --> 00:03:49,200
Speaker 1: I feel like unless you're taking a core specific to that,

68
00:03:49,600 --> 00:03:51,480
Speaker 1: you don't ever really touch it or you don't even

69
00:03:51,480 --> 00:03:53,760
Speaker 1: know that it exists. And I feel like this has

70
00:03:53,840 --> 00:03:56,920
Speaker 1: really pushed our boundaries and I hope you're the listener

71
00:03:57,200 --> 00:04:00,840
Speaker 1: to look beyond what you just like to try things

72
00:04:00,880 --> 00:04:05,160
Speaker 1: that are new. So I've definitely enjoyed that part too. Yeah. Yeah,

73
00:04:05,240 --> 00:04:08,240
Speaker 1: And I would say for myself, like I would consider

74
00:04:08,320 --> 00:04:10,680
Speaker 1: myself someone who loves reading. A lot of that is

75
00:04:10,680 --> 00:04:13,560
Speaker 1: fan fiction, will admit, but I do love reading. There

76
00:04:13,640 --> 00:04:15,400
Speaker 1: is a certain point where you're kind of like, oh,

77
00:04:15,640 --> 00:04:19,440
Speaker 1: I've done work, I'm tired, and you don't like even

78
00:04:19,480 --> 00:04:21,000
Speaker 1: finding the book can be a lot of work. Maybe

79
00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:23,040
Speaker 1: you just hear from somebody, So this is nice. This

80
00:04:23,080 --> 00:04:25,640
Speaker 1: is nice because we do look like every month there's

81
00:04:25,720 --> 00:04:27,679
Speaker 1: usually some kind of theme or some kind of idea

82
00:04:27,760 --> 00:04:30,640
Speaker 1: we have and we'll try to dig deep into what's

83
00:04:30,640 --> 00:04:32,960
Speaker 1: going on. So I yeah, it's really it's been a

84
00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:38,360
Speaker 1: rewarding segment um for sure. One of my favorites, which

85
00:04:38,440 --> 00:04:40,760
Speaker 1: was a two parter and it came after an activists

86
00:04:40,760 --> 00:04:46,200
Speaker 1: around the world, was the intersectional Environmentalist because as I

87
00:04:46,200 --> 00:04:48,599
Speaker 1: said in a recent it was a round up on

88
00:04:48,800 --> 00:04:51,920
Speaker 1: activist around the world. I that's one of my biggest

89
00:04:51,960 --> 00:04:55,839
Speaker 1: issues is protecting the environment and the environment um and

90
00:04:55,880 --> 00:04:58,839
Speaker 1: it has been since I was quite young. But it's

91
00:04:58,880 --> 00:05:03,240
Speaker 1: also always kind of given me this anxiety because it

92
00:05:03,320 --> 00:05:07,240
Speaker 1: does get reduced down so much too. Hey just recycle,

93
00:05:07,400 --> 00:05:09,960
Speaker 1: which is not accessible for everybody. Like, I like that

94
00:05:11,200 --> 00:05:14,160
Speaker 1: this book was so needed. It was so needed. I

95
00:05:14,200 --> 00:05:17,480
Speaker 1: like that it examined those issues in the history of

96
00:05:17,560 --> 00:05:20,040
Speaker 1: them and the future of them, and it was very

97
00:05:20,040 --> 00:05:22,240
Speaker 1: helpful with like the resources in the back. I just

98
00:05:23,480 --> 00:05:26,680
Speaker 1: I loved it. Yeah, she had a whole like to

99
00:05:26,800 --> 00:05:30,479
Speaker 1: do or a book activity book with it, and I

100
00:05:30,520 --> 00:05:32,799
Speaker 1: thought that was phenomenal. It was such a great idea.

101
00:05:33,240 --> 00:05:36,800
Speaker 1: Discovering other environmental activists is phenomenal, and then having that

102
00:05:36,880 --> 00:05:39,440
Speaker 1: being intersectional, which is the issue, which is what we've

103
00:05:39,480 --> 00:05:42,839
Speaker 1: been talking about when we talk about indigenous activists as well. Like,

104
00:05:42,880 --> 00:05:45,279
Speaker 1: it's it's awesome just being able to like put that

105
00:05:45,440 --> 00:05:48,400
Speaker 1: and it's actually been written and put out there for

106
00:05:48,520 --> 00:05:52,200
Speaker 1: us to consume. Love it, Yes, yes, I love it.

107
00:06:05,640 --> 00:06:07,560
Speaker 1: Another one of my favorites was a tough one for

108
00:06:07,600 --> 00:06:10,200
Speaker 1: both you and I was crying in h mart um.

109
00:06:10,240 --> 00:06:14,240
Speaker 1: And it was tough for different reasons. It was beautifully written,

110
00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:18,760
Speaker 1: it was very moving, it was quite painful. Um. But

111
00:06:19,000 --> 00:06:21,360
Speaker 1: I just thought that was so because I remember I

112
00:06:21,440 --> 00:06:23,839
Speaker 1: had read it and I was like, I think I

113
00:06:23,960 --> 00:06:28,640
Speaker 1: texted you and I was like, hey, it's a really

114
00:06:28,720 --> 00:06:34,760
Speaker 1: great book. Just so you know, you did you try

115
00:06:34,800 --> 00:06:36,599
Speaker 1: to give me a warning on that one? Thank you

116
00:06:36,640 --> 00:06:40,680
Speaker 1: for that. Oh yeah, I loved that one and that

117
00:06:40,760 --> 00:06:42,760
Speaker 1: one I saw a lot on a lot of like

118
00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:47,919
Speaker 1: best books of two roundups. I also, again no surprise,

119
00:06:48,120 --> 00:06:50,440
Speaker 1: I loved the ones we kind of did around I

120
00:06:50,440 --> 00:06:54,560
Speaker 1: think it was around Dragon Con time, um, which again

121
00:06:54,640 --> 00:06:57,160
Speaker 1: I assume everyone knows what that is. It's in the

122
00:06:57,240 --> 00:07:03,040
Speaker 1: August beginning of September. US we're kind of quote easier

123
00:07:03,080 --> 00:07:06,520
Speaker 1: reads Queens of Geek and fan Girl, which was just

124
00:07:06,560 --> 00:07:10,000
Speaker 1: kind of an exploration of fandom and coming of age,

125
00:07:10,120 --> 00:07:14,160
Speaker 1: and they were really fun. I hadn't read something like

126
00:07:14,240 --> 00:07:19,440
Speaker 1: that in a while, and I just very much enjoyed them.

127
00:07:19,480 --> 00:07:21,920
Speaker 1: And you know, you know, I loved talking about fandom

128
00:07:21,960 --> 00:07:25,720
Speaker 1: and I had so many thoughts on on both of them.

129
00:07:25,880 --> 00:07:29,720
Speaker 1: So those those were up there. It was wonderfully written.

130
00:07:31,120 --> 00:07:35,480
Speaker 1: Rainbow right Rainbow Wrow. Yeah, yeah, Rainbow Row. Like I

131
00:07:35,520 --> 00:07:37,960
Speaker 1: had read her book before and I really enjoyed it,

132
00:07:38,160 --> 00:07:40,960
Speaker 1: and then reading this it felt so it was such

133
00:07:40,960 --> 00:07:44,480
Speaker 1: a well written fiction that I could see why it

134
00:07:45,000 --> 00:07:48,560
Speaker 1: appeals because even me not knowing quite as much, I

135
00:07:48,640 --> 00:07:51,240
Speaker 1: felt it. I felt the characters they were really well developed.

136
00:07:51,320 --> 00:07:53,120
Speaker 1: It was a great book. And I think I talked

137
00:07:53,120 --> 00:07:54,840
Speaker 1: about it with you right before. I was like, I

138
00:07:54,880 --> 00:07:56,800
Speaker 1: loved it. I couldn't get enough. I couldn't put it down.

139
00:07:56,880 --> 00:08:01,080
Speaker 1: Like that's a sign of a great fiction. Yeah, yes, es, yes,

140
00:08:01,120 --> 00:08:02,920
Speaker 1: we might have to revisit. Like I said, you can

141
00:08:02,960 --> 00:08:06,440
Speaker 1: read the other books in the series, maybe an upcoming

142
00:08:06,440 --> 00:08:09,920
Speaker 1: book club because I would love to read continue with

143
00:08:09,960 --> 00:08:15,280
Speaker 1: the stories. Another one I really really loved was Mexican Gothic,

144
00:08:15,640 --> 00:08:17,480
Speaker 1: and I was excited to read that one, and I

145
00:08:17,480 --> 00:08:20,400
Speaker 1: would say it exceeded my expectations. It was like a

146
00:08:20,520 --> 00:08:25,480
Speaker 1: good It was very like set the scene, the atmosphere,

147
00:08:26,280 --> 00:08:30,200
Speaker 1: there was some romance, there was some horrors around mushrooms,

148
00:08:30,280 --> 00:08:34,040
Speaker 1: all the stuff that makes a good book. No, I

149
00:08:34,080 --> 00:08:37,480
Speaker 1: really I really enjoyed it. Um And that's definitely one

150
00:08:37,520 --> 00:08:40,559
Speaker 1: that had been popular, was very popular as getting a show,

151
00:08:40,600 --> 00:08:42,840
Speaker 1: but I'm not sure if I would have read it, uh,

152
00:08:42,920 --> 00:08:46,840
Speaker 1: if not for for this segment. So it was it

153
00:08:46,880 --> 00:08:50,480
Speaker 1: was such a such a fun read. I think you

154
00:08:50,520 --> 00:08:52,480
Speaker 1: had picked this book out and I knew really nothing

155
00:08:52,480 --> 00:08:54,280
Speaker 1: about it. You gave me the choices. It is what

156
00:08:54,320 --> 00:08:56,000
Speaker 1: we did with each other, like this is my choices,

157
00:08:56,120 --> 00:08:59,480
Speaker 1: you pick one because we're very indecisive, but like I

158
00:08:59,679 --> 00:09:01,560
Speaker 1: really he loved it, and I talked about the fact

159
00:09:01,559 --> 00:09:04,319
Speaker 1: that it was very reminiscent of Weathering Highs and the

160
00:09:04,360 --> 00:09:06,240
Speaker 1: Bronze Sisters that I was like in Jane Eyre that

161
00:09:06,320 --> 00:09:09,600
Speaker 1: I'm like, yeah, everything about that is right up my alley.

162
00:09:10,160 --> 00:09:13,040
Speaker 1: Weirdly about mushrooms, which we had a theme for, which

163
00:09:13,120 --> 00:09:15,080
Speaker 1: was odd. I actually chose that as one of my

164
00:09:15,080 --> 00:09:18,040
Speaker 1: favorites as well, because it's it left an impression on

165
00:09:18,120 --> 00:09:20,319
Speaker 1: me in such a way that I was like, this

166
00:09:20,480 --> 00:09:24,520
Speaker 1: fills like old Gothic that I know of and loved

167
00:09:25,480 --> 00:09:27,600
Speaker 1: in high school, in middle and in college. Like so

168
00:09:27,640 --> 00:09:30,840
Speaker 1: I love that this was a new writer taking on

169
00:09:30,920 --> 00:09:34,520
Speaker 1: that style and it was gorgeous, gorgeous, and I really

170
00:09:34,559 --> 00:09:36,400
Speaker 1: loved it. So that was also one of my picks.

171
00:09:37,040 --> 00:09:40,320
Speaker 1: The Bridge called my back. I love short stories, you know, this.

172
00:09:40,559 --> 00:09:43,440
Speaker 1: I love essays and I love poems, so having that

173
00:09:43,520 --> 00:09:46,080
Speaker 1: all in one collection, as well as the fact that

174
00:09:46,120 --> 00:09:49,520
Speaker 1: these are some die hard, powerful feminists around the world.

175
00:09:49,880 --> 00:09:52,800
Speaker 1: I loved it. I loved everything about it. You could

176
00:09:52,800 --> 00:09:54,600
Speaker 1: pick and choose the different stories, and we did. We did.

177
00:09:54,720 --> 00:09:57,439
Speaker 1: We picked like different poems and different essays, and it

178
00:09:57,480 --> 00:09:59,360
Speaker 1: was so hard to choose just one because it's a

179
00:09:59,400 --> 00:10:02,040
Speaker 1: pretty large book and the new editions that come out.

180
00:10:02,240 --> 00:10:04,800
Speaker 1: But I think it's something that everybody should have. I

181
00:10:04,840 --> 00:10:08,720
Speaker 1: met this copy should be in uh your collection because

182
00:10:08,760 --> 00:10:10,679
Speaker 1: there's a lot to it. And then the way it

183
00:10:10,760 --> 00:10:14,920
Speaker 1: supports uh, marginalized communities and women. I think it's important

184
00:10:14,960 --> 00:10:16,640
Speaker 1: because it brings a lot of voices out and you

185
00:10:16,920 --> 00:10:20,040
Speaker 1: learn about new authors and new poems, which is important.

186
00:10:21,280 --> 00:10:23,880
Speaker 1: So that was one of mine persuasions. Of course, you know,

187
00:10:23,880 --> 00:10:26,120
Speaker 1: because it's one of my favorite books anyway, but they

188
00:10:26,240 --> 00:10:29,520
Speaker 1: keep reading that it was good. I love Yeah, I

189
00:10:29,559 --> 00:10:32,280
Speaker 1: loved it too much. Um. And then of course the

190
00:10:32,320 --> 00:10:36,319
Speaker 1: Little Girl who Gave Zero come on, it was so fun.

191
00:10:36,360 --> 00:10:39,920
Speaker 1: The illustrations are fun, the reading of the stanzas were fun,

192
00:10:40,000 --> 00:10:42,920
Speaker 1: and yeah, I think it's fantastic. Um. And then of

193
00:10:42,960 --> 00:10:45,600
Speaker 1: course we we do also want to mention Feminism is

194
00:10:45,640 --> 00:10:48,960
Speaker 1: for Everybody my bell hooks, and I think it's a

195
00:10:48,960 --> 00:10:52,240
Speaker 1: phenomenal book. Like I think it's a good easy read

196
00:10:52,360 --> 00:10:55,280
Speaker 1: and kind of a great introduction of why feminism is

197
00:10:55,360 --> 00:11:00,320
Speaker 1: important for the entire world and for everyone. So I

198
00:11:00,360 --> 00:11:04,120
Speaker 1: definitely want to call that one out as well. Yes, yeah,

199
00:11:04,480 --> 00:11:08,440
Speaker 1: we really have read some great books everybody. Yes, and

200
00:11:08,480 --> 00:11:11,400
Speaker 1: you have recommended a lot of them are given us suggestions,

201
00:11:11,400 --> 00:11:14,200
Speaker 1: so keep those in and then also you know, not

202
00:11:14,240 --> 00:11:16,000
Speaker 1: to toot my own horn. But I have loved I

203
00:11:16,000 --> 00:11:19,920
Speaker 1: feel like two is the year we really started the fiction.

204
00:11:20,559 --> 00:11:25,400
Speaker 1: Every month we've done some before then, Um, but I

205
00:11:25,440 --> 00:11:27,880
Speaker 1: have really loved it. I have loved hearing what Christina

206
00:11:28,040 --> 00:11:30,880
Speaker 1: does with it, uh, And I've just had a really

207
00:11:30,880 --> 00:11:34,440
Speaker 1: great time, especially now that we're in kind of continuing story.

208
00:11:34,520 --> 00:11:36,800
Speaker 1: It's been really fun to interact with you listeners about

209
00:11:36,840 --> 00:11:41,400
Speaker 1: it and to hear what Christina does, because Christina is amazing. Yeah. Yeah,

210
00:11:41,440 --> 00:11:44,240
Speaker 1: you to your own horn, because this is your creation

211
00:11:44,760 --> 00:11:47,640
Speaker 1: and people are eating it up and loving it. Is

212
00:11:47,679 --> 00:11:53,280
Speaker 1: it a little uh dark and somebody? Yes, but we

213
00:11:53,360 --> 00:11:55,319
Speaker 1: love it. We love it here and I think it's

214
00:11:55,320 --> 00:11:58,120
Speaker 1: a great mix up to what we do, especially because

215
00:11:58,920 --> 00:12:00,880
Speaker 1: you are a writer and this is a part of

216
00:12:00,880 --> 00:12:03,440
Speaker 1: one of your mini hats and you should share it,

217
00:12:03,559 --> 00:12:06,040
Speaker 1: and sharing it's such it feels like a privilege to

218
00:12:06,080 --> 00:12:10,000
Speaker 1: be able to listen to your creation. So yes, you

219
00:12:10,120 --> 00:12:15,000
Speaker 1: are awesome. And then Christina doing her magic always always amazing. Yeah,

220
00:12:15,200 --> 00:12:18,040
Speaker 1: well thank you. But that was also something we did

221
00:12:18,160 --> 00:12:20,560
Speaker 1: kind of purposefully because we wanted not only for the

222
00:12:20,600 --> 00:12:23,280
Speaker 1: audience for it to be to have some mix ups

223
00:12:23,320 --> 00:12:25,440
Speaker 1: between you know, movies and books and regular episodes and

224
00:12:25,440 --> 00:12:28,040
Speaker 1: all those stuff happy hours so it's not always the

225
00:12:28,080 --> 00:12:31,200
Speaker 1: same thing, but also for Christina because Christine is amazing

226
00:12:31,240 --> 00:12:33,719
Speaker 1: to be like, hey, would you like to try this? Um,

227
00:12:33,760 --> 00:12:35,440
Speaker 1: and Christina if you're listening to this, and they're like,

228
00:12:35,440 --> 00:12:38,560
Speaker 1: oh my gosh, no, we had a discussion about it,

229
00:12:38,559 --> 00:12:42,880
Speaker 1: but you can always let us know if you're tired. Um. Yeah.

230
00:12:43,000 --> 00:12:46,440
Speaker 1: Just the kind of give us all a chance to

231
00:12:46,480 --> 00:12:52,080
Speaker 1: try different things. Um. Which, speaking of I moving on

232
00:12:52,120 --> 00:12:55,520
Speaker 1: to kind of like interviews or when we bring people

233
00:12:55,520 --> 00:12:57,840
Speaker 1: on the show, because that that's also a mixed up

234
00:12:57,880 --> 00:13:01,240
Speaker 1: for us and for the listener. Uh, and they're great.

235
00:13:01,640 --> 00:13:04,000
Speaker 1: One of the my favorite interviews we've done was with

236
00:13:04,120 --> 00:13:11,800
Speaker 1: Gatgi Juny Fox. Um. That was just such inspiring interview. Uh.

237
00:13:11,840 --> 00:13:14,040
Speaker 1: And it was so cool to hear about her future

238
00:13:14,040 --> 00:13:16,840
Speaker 1: projects and all of the thought that went into the

239
00:13:16,920 --> 00:13:19,920
Speaker 1: documentary that she had done. Um. So that was a

240
00:13:19,960 --> 00:13:22,920
Speaker 1: big one. I really loved a d H D Kink

241
00:13:23,000 --> 00:13:27,120
Speaker 1: and sex with Kate Osborne. Um. That was a really

242
00:13:27,160 --> 00:13:29,720
Speaker 1: informative one. And I feel like we made a friend.

243
00:13:30,520 --> 00:13:34,440
Speaker 1: We did I hope so I interview, we were like,

244
00:13:34,559 --> 00:13:36,040
Speaker 1: we went to brunch with her, We need to do

245
00:13:36,080 --> 00:13:38,840
Speaker 1: another brunch session with her, Yes, we do see what

246
00:13:38,920 --> 00:13:41,240
Speaker 1: else is going on? Also, the interview we did with

247
00:13:41,280 --> 00:13:44,600
Speaker 1: Margaret Killjoy I loved. It's just always so cool when

248
00:13:44,600 --> 00:13:48,560
Speaker 1: we have people on who are doing these amazing things

249
00:13:48,600 --> 00:13:51,440
Speaker 1: and who can bring so much to the conversation that

250
00:13:51,520 --> 00:13:55,880
Speaker 1: we just couldn't. So we're internally eternally grateful to people

251
00:13:56,280 --> 00:13:59,280
Speaker 1: come on the show to speak with this. Well, obviously

252
00:13:59,480 --> 00:14:00,840
Speaker 1: I love it because I feel like this is how

253
00:14:00,840 --> 00:14:02,680
Speaker 1: I make friends Now. I told you that was my

254
00:14:02,760 --> 00:14:06,040
Speaker 1: goal when I started this podcast. And yeah, I'm like,

255
00:14:06,120 --> 00:14:09,560
Speaker 1: I definitely uh enjoyed all of these interviews. Fox was

256
00:14:09,600 --> 00:14:12,360
Speaker 1: an amazing interview to me because we discovered so much

257
00:14:12,400 --> 00:14:14,640
Speaker 1: about history that has been left out and I think

258
00:14:14,640 --> 00:14:17,320
Speaker 1: it's so important that we keep talking about it because

259
00:14:17,440 --> 00:14:20,480
Speaker 1: we don't want it to die out again. UM and

260
00:14:20,640 --> 00:14:24,320
Speaker 1: her information, her documentary, her her digging UM and her

261
00:14:24,360 --> 00:14:27,360
Speaker 1: showing us like giving us the privilege to see something

262
00:14:27,400 --> 00:14:30,280
Speaker 1: that is so sacred, such as all the different rituals UM,

263
00:14:30,320 --> 00:14:33,680
Speaker 1: all of the titles within their community. It was phenomenal.

264
00:14:33,800 --> 00:14:35,880
Speaker 1: And having her on the show, of course, I was

265
00:14:35,960 --> 00:14:39,680
Speaker 1: flustered as per usual and and fan girling because she

266
00:14:39,880 --> 00:14:42,600
Speaker 1: does amazing work and she has done some amazing things

267
00:14:42,800 --> 00:14:46,400
Speaker 1: for her community and really bringing around UH the history

268
00:14:46,520 --> 00:14:48,840
Speaker 1: for us to learn. So being a part of that

269
00:14:49,120 --> 00:14:53,680
Speaker 1: felt exciting. Yeah, it's and I did not sust it.

270
00:14:53,840 --> 00:14:55,560
Speaker 1: I felt that And then yeah, like I said, Kate,

271
00:14:55,880 --> 00:14:57,720
Speaker 1: I'm like your friend, we're friends, and I feel like

272
00:14:57,720 --> 00:15:00,080
Speaker 1: there's so much more information she can give us, especial

273
00:15:00,160 --> 00:15:04,200
Speaker 1: in the world of UH world. Bye web UM content creating,

274
00:15:04,440 --> 00:15:06,000
Speaker 1: and I want to come back and hopefully we can

275
00:15:06,000 --> 00:15:07,720
Speaker 1: get our back on the show to talk a little

276
00:15:07,760 --> 00:15:10,800
Speaker 1: more about her other projects, because I think they're phenomenal

277
00:15:10,960 --> 00:15:15,080
Speaker 1: and that brings a lot of attention to UM stigmas

278
00:15:15,400 --> 00:15:17,520
Speaker 1: that we've talked about for so long that needs to

279
00:15:17,560 --> 00:15:21,440
Speaker 1: be gone so I loved that interview. Anytime, just anybody

280
00:15:21,440 --> 00:15:25,120
Speaker 1: who comes on and get really excited. Yes, yes, And

281
00:15:25,160 --> 00:15:29,440
Speaker 1: as we said in our I think our wrap up

282
00:15:29,440 --> 00:15:31,440
Speaker 1: of activists around the world, we said, we're trying to

283
00:15:31,480 --> 00:15:34,280
Speaker 1: do more interviews in a way that is feasible and

284
00:15:34,280 --> 00:15:37,280
Speaker 1: it's not going to stress everybody out, So right, hopefully

285
00:15:37,320 --> 00:15:40,040
Speaker 1: that will happen. And we've already gotten some suggestions from

286
00:15:40,040 --> 00:15:55,240
Speaker 1: your listeners, so keep those coming in as well. And

287
00:15:55,280 --> 00:16:00,800
Speaker 1: then our episodes always that we have with Yeves female

288
00:16:00,840 --> 00:16:04,640
Speaker 1: first are amazing. Um. She always comes in with somebody

289
00:16:04,680 --> 00:16:07,920
Speaker 1: that I'm like furious I haven't heard of before but

290
00:16:08,000 --> 00:16:10,440
Speaker 1: so eager to have heard of, but now from her,

291
00:16:10,800 --> 00:16:13,920
Speaker 1: she does a great job. And then Bridget. When Bridget

292
00:16:13,920 --> 00:16:20,200
Speaker 1: comes on, UM always brings something that is like relevant

293
00:16:20,560 --> 00:16:24,880
Speaker 1: and important and showcases how much tech is an issue

294
00:16:24,920 --> 00:16:28,680
Speaker 1: when it comes to feminism. Some of my favorites that

295
00:16:28,800 --> 00:16:32,120
Speaker 1: she did with us two is abortion is a tech issue,

296
00:16:32,760 --> 00:16:36,280
Speaker 1: and of course the Sculliar fact we both kind of

297
00:16:36,320 --> 00:16:39,120
Speaker 1: nerded out about the X Files. It was great. It

298
00:16:39,200 --> 00:16:42,160
Speaker 1: was hilarious because we'd already kind of talked about Scully

299
00:16:42,280 --> 00:16:49,400
Speaker 1: and her pants suit and awakening everybody's bisexuality apparently, but

300
00:16:49,560 --> 00:16:52,280
Speaker 1: like the fact that you guys really had a deep

301
00:16:52,320 --> 00:16:58,000
Speaker 1: conversation about the impact of this character and why representation matters. Um,

302
00:16:58,040 --> 00:17:01,000
Speaker 1: And it's a white woman, so even for that, but

303
00:17:01,320 --> 00:17:03,760
Speaker 1: you still didn't see many women playing those types of

304
00:17:03,840 --> 00:17:06,680
Speaker 1: roles in general, and hopefully we will continue to step

305
00:17:06,760 --> 00:17:10,200
Speaker 1: up the representations. But yeah, I really enjoyed that too. Um.

306
00:17:10,200 --> 00:17:12,480
Speaker 1: With the eas episode, she teaches us so much and

307
00:17:12,480 --> 00:17:15,639
Speaker 1: I always go off on tangent because it's so either

308
00:17:16,119 --> 00:17:19,480
Speaker 1: heartening or disheartening that they are just being discovered or

309
00:17:19,520 --> 00:17:21,480
Speaker 1: you know, like there's such a mixed bag of emotions.

310
00:17:21,480 --> 00:17:23,719
Speaker 1: And then the conversation we continually have to have is

311
00:17:24,040 --> 00:17:25,880
Speaker 1: this is what we know right now, but there could

312
00:17:25,920 --> 00:17:28,440
Speaker 1: be more discoveries, and hopefully there will be more discoveries

313
00:17:28,440 --> 00:17:31,560
Speaker 1: because we know people have been doing these things. People

314
00:17:31,560 --> 00:17:33,960
Speaker 1: in the marginalized communities most likely have done it before

315
00:17:34,440 --> 00:17:36,720
Speaker 1: and just has not been recognized. And it's kind of

316
00:17:36,720 --> 00:17:40,280
Speaker 1: frustrating but at the same time exciting. A fun Mooi

317
00:17:40,480 --> 00:17:43,240
Speaker 1: was one that's more historical context, and I love hearing

318
00:17:43,280 --> 00:17:47,240
Speaker 1: about her as the first allegedly Chinese woman in the

319
00:17:47,320 --> 00:17:50,359
Speaker 1: United States. Uh to me, of course, Asian culture is

320
00:17:50,359 --> 00:17:53,440
Speaker 1: really fascinating. So hearing that kind of history is always

321
00:17:53,440 --> 00:17:56,080
Speaker 1: good to know, um, as well as the Unit's Foot

322
00:17:56,280 --> 00:18:00,560
Speaker 1: that her work in medicine, like that's such an amazing thing,

323
00:18:00,560 --> 00:18:04,159
Speaker 1: and we've talked about this continually because even today, women

324
00:18:04,200 --> 00:18:07,720
Speaker 1: aren't getting credit for today's work. Uh So having a

325
00:18:07,800 --> 00:18:10,399
Speaker 1: historical context to see in the eighteen fifties of what

326
00:18:10,520 --> 00:18:13,040
Speaker 1: she discovered and what she did and the foundations she

327
00:18:13,200 --> 00:18:16,359
Speaker 1: laid and finally getting her do like that was an

328
00:18:16,400 --> 00:18:19,240
Speaker 1: awesome episode just to see because we're seeing that today

329
00:18:19,520 --> 00:18:22,280
Speaker 1: and we're hoping that we can change that pattern essentially,

330
00:18:22,880 --> 00:18:25,200
Speaker 1: So talking about Unit's Foot and the work she did

331
00:18:25,400 --> 00:18:30,280
Speaker 1: does have a bigger implication of crediting women in stem essentially.

332
00:18:30,560 --> 00:18:32,880
Speaker 1: So I thought that was a really important episode. Yeah,

333
00:18:32,920 --> 00:18:34,680
Speaker 1: as for a Bridget, every time we get on here,

334
00:18:34,760 --> 00:18:39,120
Speaker 1: we always like go off on great conversation and topics

335
00:18:39,160 --> 00:18:41,639
Speaker 1: and like dig into theories, and that's that's such a

336
00:18:41,720 --> 00:18:45,159
Speaker 1: different level. The Meg and Markle and the single Users

337
00:18:45,240 --> 00:18:48,199
Speaker 1: episode really like and we're talking about today because we

338
00:18:48,200 --> 00:18:50,080
Speaker 1: know a lot is happening with the royal family. It

339
00:18:50,160 --> 00:18:55,320
Speaker 1: was trending on your Twitter badly enough. UM, not mine though, um.

340
00:18:55,359 --> 00:18:57,640
Speaker 1: But I thought that was a big conversation, especially when

341
00:18:57,640 --> 00:19:00,280
Speaker 1: it comes to race and bots and all of the

342
00:19:00,320 --> 00:19:03,399
Speaker 1: different things and attacks. Being constantly aware of that and

343
00:19:03,440 --> 00:19:05,720
Speaker 1: bringing that to the forefront I felt was so important

344
00:19:05,800 --> 00:19:09,040
Speaker 1: as well as Evan Rachel would an accountability because we

345
00:19:09,080 --> 00:19:11,360
Speaker 1: still have to have this conversation because as I was

346
00:19:11,440 --> 00:19:14,600
Speaker 1: talking about the previous episode about Brooke Shield, she had

347
00:19:14,640 --> 00:19:17,200
Speaker 1: a lawsuit against Playboy to try to take that down,

348
00:19:17,440 --> 00:19:20,639
Speaker 1: but she lost in New York based on some uh

349
00:19:21,119 --> 00:19:25,199
Speaker 1: side uh code of models, so she was claimed as

350
00:19:25,200 --> 00:19:27,920
Speaker 1: a model and not a child. So this is sort

351
00:19:27,920 --> 00:19:30,600
Speaker 1: of professional work, Like that's a conversation about it, and

352
00:19:30,600 --> 00:19:33,840
Speaker 1: it is still out there. That photo from that publication

353
00:19:33,920 --> 00:19:37,200
Speaker 1: is still out there. I don't understand why this is

354
00:19:37,240 --> 00:19:41,000
Speaker 1: not classified as child porn. I have so many questions,

355
00:19:41,040 --> 00:19:44,720
Speaker 1: but this conversation about a tech accountability and why it's

356
00:19:44,720 --> 00:19:47,280
Speaker 1: still out there, and why they're allowing these things which

357
00:19:47,280 --> 00:19:51,800
Speaker 1: are violating women's rights and violating women's privacy and violating

358
00:19:51,840 --> 00:19:54,000
Speaker 1: a lot of people, um in so many ways. And

359
00:19:54,040 --> 00:19:57,080
Speaker 1: it's a repeated violation because it's constantly a reminder and

360
00:19:57,119 --> 00:19:59,119
Speaker 1: it's out there. So I thought it was such a

361
00:19:59,119 --> 00:20:01,600
Speaker 1: big and important station that she brought and I love

362
00:20:01,640 --> 00:20:03,000
Speaker 1: the fact that we were able to talk about it

363
00:20:03,119 --> 00:20:08,960
Speaker 1: and then call out the men who are really always good. Yeah,

364
00:20:09,000 --> 00:20:14,439
Speaker 1: we need to revisit that one. Yeah. Well, uh, final

365
00:20:14,640 --> 00:20:17,480
Speaker 1: final call out. We always loved doing the listener mail segments.

366
00:20:17,880 --> 00:20:21,720
Speaker 1: We got to play wey Haven thanks to listener Amanda,

367
00:20:21,800 --> 00:20:26,320
Speaker 1: who came on sent us an audio clip about why

368
00:20:26,440 --> 00:20:29,960
Speaker 1: weh Haven impacted Amanda, and that was so fun. We

369
00:20:30,000 --> 00:20:33,640
Speaker 1: had a great Amanda. I'm waiting for addition number three.

370
00:20:34,040 --> 00:20:37,200
Speaker 1: Someone give me an update because I played one into

371
00:20:37,680 --> 00:20:40,719
Speaker 1: a lot. I need the third one supposed to come

372
00:20:40,720 --> 00:20:44,040
Speaker 1: out this year. Maybe we should revisit this too. Maybe

373
00:20:44,119 --> 00:20:48,239
Speaker 1: we should revisit I think that'd be great. Uh. And

374
00:20:48,280 --> 00:20:51,760
Speaker 1: then we had Jamie Summers, who's been a longtime supportive

375
00:20:51,800 --> 00:20:55,400
Speaker 1: listener of us, uh come on and talk about Twitch

376
00:20:56,400 --> 00:21:00,639
Speaker 1: and Jamie's experience on Twitch. So that was great too,

377
00:21:01,119 --> 00:21:03,240
Speaker 1: uh And we are looking into doing more of that.

378
00:21:03,400 --> 00:21:05,320
