I know we've said it before, 9 00:00:42,560 --> 00:00:45,920 Speaker 1: but we do a lot of stuff and when I 10 00:00:45,920 --> 00:00:49,360 Speaker 1: look back over a year, I'm always kind of surprised 11 00:00:50,159 --> 00:00:54,480 Speaker 1: that all of that happened in one year, so we 12 00:00:54,560 --> 00:00:57,760 Speaker 1: had a lot to choose. From that being said, we 13 00:00:57,760 --> 00:01:01,640 Speaker 1: thought we would break it up based on are segments, 14 00:01:02,880 --> 00:01:08,279 Speaker 1: starting with book Club, which she asked. As we've said before, 15 00:01:08,319 --> 00:01:11,600 Speaker 1: this is one I always appreciate because I do read 16 00:01:11,600 --> 00:01:13,920 Speaker 1: a lot that I don't read a lot of books, 17 00:01:14,200 --> 00:01:18,200 Speaker 1: but this segment kind of changed changed that for me, 18 00:01:18,959 --> 00:01:21,160 Speaker 1: and I'm really grateful for it because I've read a 19 00:01:21,160 --> 00:01:25,240 Speaker 1: bunch of stuff that made me think and stuck with me. 20 00:01:25,680 --> 00:01:30,560 Speaker 1: So what was your favorite book Club episode? Sanantha? 21 00:01:31,120 --> 00:01:34,160 Speaker 2: So I think I know you and I shared one favorite. 22 00:01:34,160 --> 00:01:35,680 Speaker 2: I will hold off on that one for a minute, 23 00:01:35,760 --> 00:01:39,480 Speaker 2: But like why in I actually thought of this not 24 00:01:39,520 --> 00:01:41,000 Speaker 2: too long ago because I was thinking about some of 25 00:01:41,120 --> 00:01:43,199 Speaker 2: the plot of it and like the back and forth 26 00:01:43,680 --> 00:01:48,520 Speaker 2: and the character and the person discovering her idol in 27 00:01:48,640 --> 00:01:51,200 Speaker 2: this one like place that I went back. 28 00:01:51,120 --> 00:01:53,680 Speaker 3: And forth like is this a dream? Is she dreaming this? 29 00:01:53,680 --> 00:01:54,200 Speaker 3: This is real? 30 00:01:54,520 --> 00:01:56,920 Speaker 2: But that novel, especially with everything that's coming out of 31 00:01:56,960 --> 00:02:00,320 Speaker 2: South Korea and the conversations that are happening, especially about 32 00:02:00,360 --> 00:02:05,080 Speaker 2: writers because one of the women novelists won a Nobel 33 00:02:05,200 --> 00:02:07,760 Speaker 2: Prize for her writing and she was the first Korean 34 00:02:07,800 --> 00:02:11,160 Speaker 2: woman to do so, and that type of narrative, like, 35 00:02:11,200 --> 00:02:15,040 Speaker 2: it's such a unique way of telling a story, such 36 00:02:15,040 --> 00:02:20,080 Speaker 2: a unique subject. Although you it's probably fan fiction world 37 00:02:20,120 --> 00:02:23,680 Speaker 2: probably has this kind of subject, but to be actually 38 00:02:23,680 --> 00:02:26,440 Speaker 2: published and to see it being like noted as a 39 00:02:26,480 --> 00:02:31,399 Speaker 2: published novel and recognize is unique. So I was thinking 40 00:02:31,440 --> 00:02:34,000 Speaker 2: about that one. That one was like something that just 41 00:02:34,040 --> 00:02:38,200 Speaker 2: stuck like forever, like I just think about every now 42 00:02:38,200 --> 00:02:40,200 Speaker 2: and agains out of nowhere because the way I pictured 43 00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:42,000 Speaker 2: that book, do you do that? 44 00:02:42,200 --> 00:02:42,720 Speaker 3: Is that just me? 45 00:02:43,120 --> 00:02:43,400 Speaker 4: Yeah? 46 00:02:43,440 --> 00:02:48,040 Speaker 1: That one was a very It was a very visceral 47 00:02:48,080 --> 00:02:50,639 Speaker 1: book in a lot of ways, like the imagery of it. 48 00:02:50,960 --> 00:02:54,920 Speaker 1: I remember the cicadas specifically, Yeah, of course you did, Yes, 49 00:02:54,960 --> 00:02:56,960 Speaker 1: of course, twenty twenty four Are You're a b Cicadas? 50 00:02:57,080 --> 00:02:59,280 Speaker 1: But it was it was like a fever dream. You 51 00:02:59,280 --> 00:03:03,440 Speaker 1: weren't sure what entirely was real, and it pulled you 52 00:03:03,520 --> 00:03:07,280 Speaker 1: in and made you feel uncomfortable, but in like the 53 00:03:07,320 --> 00:03:09,239 Speaker 1: way that I'm like, I'm good, I need to think 54 00:03:09,240 --> 00:03:10,840 Speaker 1: about this. I need to think about this. 55 00:03:11,440 --> 00:03:11,840 Speaker 4: Yeah. 56 00:03:11,880 --> 00:03:13,920 Speaker 1: So it stuck with me as well, and it is 57 00:03:13,960 --> 00:03:16,840 Speaker 1: interesting to me because of the fan fiction aspect, of course. 58 00:03:17,680 --> 00:03:22,960 Speaker 1: And I recently had a friend because if you don't 59 00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:27,120 Speaker 1: remember why N stands for like your name, so you 60 00:03:27,160 --> 00:03:31,760 Speaker 1: put your name in to the fan fiction and you'll 61 00:03:31,840 --> 00:03:34,880 Speaker 1: usually be partnered with somebody. And I had someone who 62 00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:36,720 Speaker 1: was like one of my favorite authors wrote a hy 63 00:03:36,800 --> 00:03:39,480 Speaker 1: N and I was so surprised, and I tried to 64 00:03:39,520 --> 00:03:41,240 Speaker 1: read it and I just couldn't do it because usually 65 00:03:41,240 --> 00:03:43,920 Speaker 1: you like replace your name in it. Yeah, but it 66 00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:48,760 Speaker 1: was really interesting how it was written and what it 67 00:03:48,840 --> 00:03:56,320 Speaker 1: was looking into in terms of fandom, and just like 68 00:03:57,360 --> 00:04:05,440 Speaker 1: kind of the religious aspect of fandom that I can yeah, yeah, yeah. 69 00:04:05,480 --> 00:04:09,600 Speaker 2: And then the second book is Lolo Woods, which was 70 00:04:09,760 --> 00:04:14,360 Speaker 2: our kind of first graphic novel with Marvel. 71 00:04:14,880 --> 00:04:18,720 Speaker 1: Right, Ooh, that's hard to say, because I feel like 72 00:04:18,760 --> 00:04:22,680 Speaker 1: we do so many where we like throughout suggestions and 73 00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:24,680 Speaker 1: then maybe not pick them, right. 74 00:04:25,680 --> 00:04:27,520 Speaker 2: I think it was I think we were trying. I 75 00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:31,960 Speaker 2: think we were trying to purposely find a comic and 76 00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:33,919 Speaker 2: we wanted something because it was kind of horror. But 77 00:04:33,960 --> 00:04:37,360 Speaker 2: at the same time, it was also a Latin American 78 00:04:37,680 --> 00:04:42,560 Speaker 2: Appreciation month, and so this hit everything. And then like, 79 00:04:42,640 --> 00:04:46,479 Speaker 2: I also think of this because what show or movie 80 00:04:46,520 --> 00:04:49,080 Speaker 2: was reminiscent Blink Twice? 81 00:04:50,200 --> 00:04:52,360 Speaker 1: The movie Blink Twice is very reminiscent. 82 00:04:52,600 --> 00:04:55,320 Speaker 2: There's something else that I just watched that I was like, oh, 83 00:04:55,360 --> 00:04:59,480 Speaker 2: this feels like the same prep anyways, I because it wasn't. 84 00:04:59,520 --> 00:05:01,200 Speaker 3: I've never seen Twice, so I can't be that bit 85 00:05:01,279 --> 00:05:01,479 Speaker 3: for me. 86 00:05:01,560 --> 00:05:03,520 Speaker 2: But like there are things that I'm like, oh, I 87 00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:07,599 Speaker 2: see the similarities here, and the conversations here, and just 88 00:05:07,680 --> 00:05:11,479 Speaker 2: kind of that level of like haunting and manipulation of 89 00:05:11,520 --> 00:05:14,120 Speaker 2: women and all of that which maybe was just reality 90 00:05:14,200 --> 00:05:17,680 Speaker 2: and it was just too close, but it was such 91 00:05:17,839 --> 00:05:21,719 Speaker 2: great art artistry, such a deep tale and such a 92 00:05:21,800 --> 00:05:25,839 Speaker 2: dark tale that I was like, this is amazing. Yeah, 93 00:05:25,880 --> 00:05:28,960 Speaker 2: And I really really loved everything about that comic. 94 00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:32,400 Speaker 1: I did too that that was my pick as well. 95 00:05:32,920 --> 00:05:36,280 Speaker 1: We did that one prior to October. We didn't get 96 00:05:36,320 --> 00:05:38,240 Speaker 1: to do one in a book in October because we 97 00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:42,000 Speaker 1: were so busy, but it did it fit and it 98 00:05:42,040 --> 00:05:44,479 Speaker 1: was written by someone who I'd seen on a lot 99 00:05:44,560 --> 00:05:48,479 Speaker 1: of like horror authors you need to be reading lists, 100 00:05:48,680 --> 00:05:50,719 Speaker 1: and I was so excited we finally got to do 101 00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:55,560 Speaker 1: one by her, Carmen Maria Machado, and it was just 102 00:05:56,240 --> 00:06:01,919 Speaker 1: very starkly illustrated and the coloring was so there's so 103 00:06:02,040 --> 00:06:07,359 Speaker 1: much contrast in it. And I loved the story and 104 00:06:07,440 --> 00:06:09,719 Speaker 1: like the complexities of it because in the end you 105 00:06:09,839 --> 00:06:14,320 Speaker 1: kind of don't know, uh the choice one of the 106 00:06:14,400 --> 00:06:18,560 Speaker 1: characters makes of to remember or to forget. And it 107 00:06:18,640 --> 00:06:21,640 Speaker 1: had a lot of like friendship front and center, which 108 00:06:21,680 --> 00:06:24,640 Speaker 1: I love. It had like which stuff, which I love. 109 00:06:26,680 --> 00:06:29,760 Speaker 1: I loved it. I think it was fantastic good. 110 00:06:30,880 --> 00:06:33,440 Speaker 2: It suffered me too, you know what, I kind of 111 00:06:33,440 --> 00:06:37,120 Speaker 2: have to put the cookbook in the Diasporrican that we 112 00:06:37,440 --> 00:06:41,159 Speaker 2: just featured, I just I don't know. I think, like 113 00:06:41,360 --> 00:06:46,800 Speaker 2: anything that has such depth with their heritage, it speaks 114 00:06:46,839 --> 00:06:50,360 Speaker 2: to me. And also because the food was tasty. That's 115 00:06:50,400 --> 00:06:52,960 Speaker 2: a nonmorable mention on here. So if y'all haven't gotten 116 00:06:52,960 --> 00:06:54,640 Speaker 2: that book or listened to that episode, you really should 117 00:06:54,680 --> 00:06:57,400 Speaker 2: because it was fun and it's very interactive if you cook. 118 00:06:58,680 --> 00:07:02,040 Speaker 1: Yes, yes, that was a good one. My honorable mention 119 00:07:02,120 --> 00:07:05,760 Speaker 1: is Hummingbird, which was just such a delightful, beautiful book 120 00:07:06,400 --> 00:07:11,440 Speaker 1: and it bought me and Samantha near tears.

Yes, and yeah, 127 00:07:37,240 --> 00:07:40,280 Speaker 2: it was very like. The plot was different and I 128 00:07:40,360 --> 00:07:41,720 Speaker 2: love that m m. 129 00:07:42,360 --> 00:07:44,720 Speaker 1: It had like a lot of magical elements, kind of 130 00:07:44,720 --> 00:07:47,400 Speaker 1: fairy tale elements, and I sort of love at the 131 00:07:47,520 --> 00:07:50,200 Speaker 1: end it was like, I'm Some people were like, I'm good. 132 00:07:50,200 --> 00:07:52,400 Speaker 1: I don't need this.

It is a cult classic and it 148 00:08:41,080 --> 00:08:45,439 Speaker 2: re emerges. I feel like maybe just never goes away. 149 00:08:45,840 --> 00:08:48,240 Speaker 2: It's just a classic.

Also love 158 00:09:11,520 --> 00:09:14,160 Speaker 2: a good like when we do any classics that becomes 159 00:09:14,200 --> 00:09:15,920 Speaker 2: her do not hold. 160 00:09:15,720 --> 00:09:17,600 Speaker 3: Up well, but you know, still a classic. 161 00:09:18,200 --> 00:09:22,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, that was a fun one.

It's fun for me 165 00:09:25,920 --> 00:09:28,520 Speaker 1: because I get to see like people nerd out about it. 166 00:09:28,720 --> 00:09:30,719 Speaker 1: I'm usually on the other side of it, so I 167 00:09:30,880 --> 00:09:34,120 Speaker 1: like being like, oh, okay, I can't wait to finish 168 00:09:34,120 --> 00:09:37,680 Speaker 1: it out. I think it's fun. We're planning it. It's 169 00:09:37,720 --> 00:09:39,680 Speaker 1: just difficult because we do want to get some people, 170 00:09:39,800 --> 00:09:43,200 Speaker 1: other people involved, like Christine and Joey.

I showed it to a bunch of people 178 00:10:04,600 --> 00:10:06,839 Speaker 1: after we did it. It was just a really fun, 179 00:10:07,040 --> 00:10:08,960 Speaker 1: strange movie. 180 00:10:09,200 --> 00:10:10,040 Speaker 3: And we go and we. 181 00:10:10,080 --> 00:10:11,920 Speaker 1: Got to have Joey come on and talk about it, 182 00:10:12,960 --> 00:10:15,000 Speaker 1: and that was really great because once again it was 183 00:10:15,080 --> 00:10:18,160 Speaker 1: it's fun to see somebody passionate about something and love 184 00:10:18,200 --> 00:10:20,720 Speaker 1: something talk about it. So I really loved that. And 185 00:10:20,760 --> 00:10:22,800 Speaker 1: then I'm gonna be like kind of bold and say 186 00:10:22,800 --> 00:10:24,920 Speaker 1: one we haven't done yet, but I'm gonna say the substance, 187 00:10:25,200 --> 00:10:28,040 Speaker 1: which is a Spoiled Saturday. I think that was kind 188 00:10:28,080 --> 00:10:28,880 Speaker 1: of be fun. 189 00:10:30,559 --> 00:10:31,480 Speaker 3: I haven't watched it. 190 00:10:32,040 --> 00:10:35,520 Speaker 1: I'm so excited. I'm so excited. I've also said that 191 00:10:35,640 --> 00:10:36,600 Speaker 1: to so many people. 192 00:10:37,160 --> 00:10:38,640 Speaker 3: By the time this comes out, I've seen it. 193 00:10:39,000 --> 00:10:41,600 Speaker 2: Yes, yes, I'll tell you next year how I feel 194 00:10:41,640 --> 00:10:43,880 Speaker 2: about it. 195 00:10:43,880 --> 00:10:46,000 Speaker 1: It's a New Year's movie. It's very exciting. Yeah, that 196 00:10:46,000 --> 00:10:49,080 Speaker 1: one's gonna be fun. That one's gonna be fun. Wow. 197 00:10:49,960 --> 00:10:54,280 Speaker 1: So Samantha guess, wells for you feminists around the world. 198 00:10:54,840 --> 00:10:56,040 Speaker 3: Y'all, I'm not gonna lie. 199 00:10:56,160 --> 00:10:59,960 Speaker 2: So when we talk about doing these, I don't know 200 00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:02,280 Speaker 2: what's been in what year, So I'm hoping that I 201 00:11:02,280 --> 00:11:04,440 Speaker 2: didn't slip up and put in something from like three 202 00:11:04,480 --> 00:11:04,920 Speaker 2: years ago. 203 00:11:05,000 --> 00:11:05,679 Speaker 3: I'm sure it didn't. 204 00:11:05,679 --> 00:11:07,679 Speaker 2: But like we've done a lot, We've done a lot 205 00:11:07,679 --> 00:11:12,320 Speaker 2: of feminists and activists throughout our years. This year, you 206 00:11:12,360 --> 00:11:15,920 Speaker 2: know what, every year we talk about like transactivists as well. 207 00:11:15,960 --> 00:11:18,640 Speaker 2: But I think it's so important that we keep talking 208 00:11:18,640 --> 00:11:20,480 Speaker 2: about it. One of the ones that I liked we 209 00:11:20,520 --> 00:11:23,800 Speaker 2: did was the trans Nonprofits episode, and again it was 210 00:11:23,880 --> 00:11:27,320 Speaker 2: very short. We highlighted a few of the NGOs that 211 00:11:27,440 --> 00:11:30,920 Speaker 2: exist around the world and why they're important, especially with 212 00:11:31,040 --> 00:11:35,760 Speaker 2: the anti trans movement's happening. We talked about my sister's 213 00:11:35,760 --> 00:11:39,640 Speaker 2: house that's located in Memphis, Tennessee. We've talked about Black 214 00:11:39,679 --> 00:11:42,760 Speaker 2: and Pink National, which is also an organization around here, 215 00:11:42,840 --> 00:11:44,440 Speaker 2: or you can go to Black and Pink dot org. 216 00:11:45,320 --> 00:11:48,280 Speaker 2: It was i think released in April for Trans Visibility Day, 217 00:11:48,559 --> 00:11:50,640 Speaker 2: So if you want to go back and listen, try 218 00:11:50,679 --> 00:11:52,800 Speaker 2: to find that episode because we do highlight a few 219 00:11:52,800 --> 00:11:56,320 Speaker 2: of the Great Organization's trans lifeline all those that you 220 00:11:56,320 --> 00:11:58,679 Speaker 2: should try to go and look up and then I'm 221 00:11:58,679 --> 00:12:01,080 Speaker 2: sure they will link you to like local areas to 222 00:12:01,200 --> 00:12:03,600 Speaker 2: help the trans community. Because it's really important that we 223 00:12:03,679 --> 00:12:07,640 Speaker 2: stick together in this conversation, especially when it comes to intersectionality. 224 00:12:08,080 --> 00:12:11,960 Speaker 2: With that, I think our conversation about Sarah McBride, featuring 225 00:12:12,000 --> 00:12:15,559 Speaker 2: her not only as an activist and an advocate, but 226 00:12:15,600 --> 00:12:19,720 Speaker 2: about the controversy surrounding her, even though it's not exactly 227 00:12:19,840 --> 00:12:22,240 Speaker 2: on par with what we typically do for this segment, 228 00:12:22,720 --> 00:12:25,880 Speaker 2: having that conversation was really important and still important. We 229 00:12:25,920 --> 00:12:29,560 Speaker 2: saw friend of the show Cal Willis recently and a 230 00:12:29,600 --> 00:12:33,400 Speaker 2: group of transactivists go have a sit in at the 231 00:12:33,480 --> 00:12:36,920 Speaker 2: Capital trying to talk about the need in this conversation 232 00:12:37,000 --> 00:12:40,840 Speaker 2: of why what Sarah McBride, the scrutiny that she's under 233 00:12:41,640 --> 00:12:43,440 Speaker 2: is important and we have to talk about today. We 234 00:12:43,520 --> 00:12:46,000 Speaker 2: know a lot of Supreme Court stuff is coming out 235 00:12:46,120 --> 00:12:50,040 Speaker 2: as well soon and a little bit nervous about that. 236 00:12:50,160 --> 00:12:53,439 Speaker 2: But having that kind of conversation during these segments I 237 00:12:53,440 --> 00:12:56,040 Speaker 2: think is important. But of course with that we would 238 00:12:56,040 --> 00:13:00,240 Speaker 2: talk about someone like Theodora del Carmen Vasquez, who who 239 00:13:00,679 --> 00:13:04,520 Speaker 2: was a reproductive activist, reproductive right activist, and she came 240 00:13:04,559 --> 00:13:07,720 Speaker 2: out in support of the US. I believe she lived 241 00:13:07,760 --> 00:13:11,319 Speaker 2: in Alsovadore, and she's a big proponent of reproductive right 242 00:13:11,640 --> 00:13:15,120 Speaker 2: and justice, and she made sure like she tried to 243 00:13:15,120 --> 00:13:18,800 Speaker 2: comfort the US and American people with what she went 244 00:13:18,840 --> 00:13:22,640 Speaker 2: through and how hard she fights for her country. So 245 00:13:23,840 --> 00:13:26,000 Speaker 2: when you see people like that who fight for us, 246 00:13:26,400 --> 00:13:29,559 Speaker 2: you can't help but remember why these people are so 247 00:13:29,640 --> 00:13:32,520 Speaker 2: important and why remembering people all over the world is important. 248 00:13:32,559 --> 00:13:34,840 Speaker 2: So those are gonna be by top three for now. 249 00:13:34,880 --> 00:13:36,640 Speaker 2: But you know, there's so many, we have, so many 250 00:13:37,679 --> 00:13:38,120 Speaker 2: we do. 251 00:13:40,840 --> 00:13:45,360 Speaker 1: This is funny because I don't think it's any secret. 252 00:13:45,360 --> 00:13:47,640 Speaker 1: We've talked about it before. But usually what happens is 253 00:13:47,720 --> 00:13:51,040 Speaker 1: when we get an outline. If we're sharing, I go 254 00:13:51,080 --> 00:13:54,040 Speaker 1: in first and then do way too much and then 255 00:13:54,160 --> 00:13:56,640 Speaker 1: Samantha comes in. But I did all this stuff and 256 00:13:56,679 --> 00:13:58,480 Speaker 1: cut it all out because I was like, stick to 257 00:13:58,520 --> 00:14:01,400 Speaker 1: one Reese, I'm doing. 258 00:14:01,400 --> 00:14:04,480 Speaker 3: You, I'm pulling at you. I give them the lessess 259 00:14:04,600 --> 00:14:05,040 Speaker 3: my turn. 260 00:14:05,320 --> 00:14:08,480 Speaker 1: I love it. Okay, that's all right. Well for fictional 261 00:14:08,520 --> 00:14:13,439 Speaker 1: women around the world, I chose Xeno Warrior Princess because 262 00:14:13,760 --> 00:14:15,640 Speaker 1: that feels like forever ago, doesn't it. But it was 263 00:14:15,679 --> 00:14:18,319 Speaker 1: this year. I did not know much about her. She 264 00:14:18,400 --> 00:14:22,640 Speaker 1: was like one of the big big feminist icons I 265 00:14:22,680 --> 00:14:25,840 Speaker 1: needed to know. She has a really fun, like fan 266 00:14:26,040 --> 00:14:31,400 Speaker 1: fiction queer relationship that was really fun to learn about. 267 00:14:31,480 --> 00:14:33,960 Speaker 1: There were a lot of great quotes from Lucy Lawless 268 00:14:33,960 --> 00:14:36,800 Speaker 1: about her, and it was just a really really fun 269 00:14:36,800 --> 00:14:38,320 Speaker 1: one to do. And it was fun to hear from 270 00:14:38,400 --> 00:14:44,000 Speaker 1: you about your thoughts about Xeno Warrior Princess and then 271 00:14:44,080 --> 00:14:48,239 Speaker 1: me having not seen it, but having seen Young Hercules 272 00:14:48,280 --> 00:14:52,160 Speaker 1: with Ron Gosling, where I haven't gone to the end yet, 273 00:14:52,280 --> 00:14:55,760 Speaker 1: but I'm pretty sure she shows up. We'll see I think. 274 00:14:55,840 --> 00:14:57,560 Speaker 3: So does she time travel? 275 00:14:58,680 --> 00:15:05,760 Speaker 2: Oh no, okay, yeah, that's not that's not like correlating. 276 00:15:05,240 --> 00:15:07,320 Speaker 3: In my head, I was like, wait, what, okay, peek on. 277 00:15:08,040 --> 00:15:10,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, but it was just a really really fun one 278 00:15:10,120 --> 00:15:12,560 Speaker 1: and I knew that was a character so many people 279 00:15:12,760 --> 00:15:17,920 Speaker 1: cared about or really it impacted their life. So I 280 00:15:18,080 --> 00:15:21,240 Speaker 1: enjoyed the research on that episode because again it was 281 00:15:21,240 --> 00:15:24,440 Speaker 1: something I didn't I knew about, but I'd never watched, 282 00:15:25,040 --> 00:15:25,880 Speaker 1: so it was really cool. 283 00:15:26,920 --> 00:15:29,360 Speaker 2: We have to I want Lucy Lawless on the show 284 00:15:29,440 --> 00:15:31,920 Speaker 2: one two, you need to be maybe we need to 285 00:15:32,360 --> 00:15:34,920 Speaker 2: go through quickly Sex in the City a little faster 286 00:15:35,040 --> 00:15:38,240 Speaker 2: so we can do that as a watch through. Even 287 00:15:38,280 --> 00:15:40,280 Speaker 2: though I would be like, I can't remember this because 288 00:15:40,320 --> 00:15:42,160 Speaker 2: I don't think I've watched all of them, but I 289 00:15:42,200 --> 00:15:44,920 Speaker 2: did watch quite a bit. Yeah, I love zee a 290 00:15:44,960 --> 00:15:46,000 Speaker 2: boy a princess. 291 00:15:46,320 --> 00:15:50,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, it was really fun to read about. I know, 292 00:15:51,160 --> 00:15:56,280 Speaker 1: huge cultural impacts, so baby, but man, we're going slowly 293 00:15:56,360 --> 00:16:00,920 Speaker 1: through Sex and the City, so very slow. But maybe 294 00:16:01,000 --> 00:16:13,240 Speaker 1: one day. So this brings us to what we call 295 00:16:13,280 --> 00:16:15,440 Speaker 1: standard episodes. These are kind of our longer and more 296 00:16:15,480 --> 00:16:19,360 Speaker 1: research episodes that come out on Wednesday and Friday, although 297 00:16:20,240 --> 00:16:23,960 Speaker 1: sometimes Monday many gets thrown in there. It's not always 298 00:16:24,040 --> 00:16:27,760 Speaker 1: like clear cut, but in general we call these the 299 00:16:27,800 --> 00:16:32,640 Speaker 1: standard episodes. So Samantha, what are someone your faves? 300 00:16:33,040 --> 00:16:35,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, thank you for qualifying that. It's not just one 301 00:16:35,480 --> 00:16:39,680 Speaker 2: that's so. But yeah, so I put like the Wildland 302 00:16:39,720 --> 00:16:44,560 Speaker 2: firefighting women because that was so fascinating to me, and 303 00:16:44,880 --> 00:16:47,240 Speaker 2: I really want to dig more into it because the 304 00:16:47,320 --> 00:16:50,440 Speaker 2: individuals that did do this, I think is fascinating, the 305 00:16:50,880 --> 00:16:53,800 Speaker 2: job in itself and the women who really pushed through. 306 00:16:54,680 --> 00:16:56,840 Speaker 2: I know we've had a listeners like they like really 307 00:16:56,920 --> 00:16:59,480 Speaker 2: enjoyed this episode and they've had experience with us. So 308 00:17:00,200 --> 00:17:01,960 Speaker 2: we need to get somebody knowing. I think we need 309 00:17:01,960 --> 00:17:03,800 Speaker 2: to do this as an interview, honestly, and so we're 310 00:17:03,800 --> 00:17:07,400 Speaker 2: gonna put that as a asterisk. Native women in languages 311 00:17:07,520 --> 00:17:10,560 Speaker 2: again another big conversation, and I think that needs to 312 00:17:10,560 --> 00:17:12,679 Speaker 2: be We need to open that as a series. We 313 00:17:12,680 --> 00:17:16,280 Speaker 2: haven't done one this year. Have we technically the religion 314 00:17:16,320 --> 00:17:20,240 Speaker 2: series last year? It ended into this year, right. 315 00:17:21,080 --> 00:17:23,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm pretty sure we ran that as a playlist. 316 00:17:23,080 --> 00:17:24,679 Speaker 1: I know we were talking about doing it as a 317 00:17:24,680 --> 00:17:27,800 Speaker 1: playlist this year. I looked and I'm pretty sure we 318 00:17:27,880 --> 00:17:28,119 Speaker 1: did it. 319 00:17:29,920 --> 00:17:33,040 Speaker 3: Kidding, every Christmas is a Christmas sessional. I'm just kidding. 320 00:17:33,040 --> 00:17:36,199 Speaker 2: But yeah, Native women and not just languages, but just 321 00:17:36,280 --> 00:17:39,119 Speaker 2: the amount of things that they do in order to 322 00:17:39,200 --> 00:17:43,240 Speaker 2: preserve culture and the environment. So like when we talk 323 00:17:43,280 --> 00:17:45,719 Speaker 2: about food culture and how they try to save that, 324 00:17:45,840 --> 00:17:50,440 Speaker 2: traditions uh, as well as rituals as well as medicine, 325 00:17:50,440 --> 00:17:55,200 Speaker 2: herbal living, as well as languages. So that was fascinating 326 00:17:55,200 --> 00:17:58,840 Speaker 2: and of course doing that internationally would be a series 327 00:17:59,040 --> 00:18:01,880 Speaker 2: because we only hit into mainly the North American areas 328 00:18:01,920 --> 00:18:06,440 Speaker 2: as well as Australia, so that is not enough, so 329 00:18:06,560 --> 00:18:09,680 Speaker 2: we want to expand that. But also with that interviews, 330 00:18:09,720 --> 00:18:13,119 Speaker 2: the interviews that we do. I love doing interviews. I 331 00:18:13,200 --> 00:18:16,320 Speaker 2: love meeting new people.

Yeah, Bridget does always a great job when 349 00:19:07,520 --> 00:19:10,400 Speaker 1: she comes on. One of the ones that stood out 350 00:19:10,440 --> 00:19:13,720 Speaker 1: to me is what's missing from the online discourse on tradwives, 351 00:19:14,560 --> 00:19:18,320 Speaker 1: which is still really relevant and really important, as with 352 00:19:18,560 --> 00:19:24,560 Speaker 1: almost all of her episodes, alright, Yeah, I really liked 353 00:19:24,560 --> 00:19:28,119 Speaker 1: the Lena image as well. And then when we have Eves, 354 00:19:28,119 --> 00:19:33,919 Speaker 1: come on Eves, there's always the delights. So she just 355 00:19:33,920 --> 00:19:35,600 Speaker 1: does such a great job.
