WEBVTT - Introducing The Women

0:00:00.080 --> 0:00:02.440
<v Speaker 1>Well, you're never a hero in your own hometown. I

0:00:02.480 --> 0:00:05.600
<v Speaker 1>will tell you that, no matter what happens, I'm always

0:00:05.640 --> 0:00:11.680
<v Speaker 1>a disruptor. I'm Rosaried, the host of The Women, a

0:00:11.680 --> 0:00:15.680
<v Speaker 1>new podcast from I Heart Radio featuring intimate conversations with

0:00:15.760 --> 0:00:19.599
<v Speaker 1>today's most remarkable trailblazers, getting to the core of who

0:00:19.600 --> 0:00:23.079
<v Speaker 1>they are as people and professionals. When I announced to

0:00:23.120 --> 0:00:25.159
<v Speaker 1>the world that I was going to transition, it was

0:00:25.280 --> 0:00:27.720
<v Speaker 1>just a moment of joy for me. Because ye women

0:00:27.760 --> 0:00:32.120
<v Speaker 1>of color, I do receive regular stream of online abuse

0:00:32.159 --> 0:00:35.320
<v Speaker 1>and death threats. I was shocked, shocked up I got elected.

0:00:35.400 --> 0:00:37.080
<v Speaker 1>You're not going to see any fanilizes. But you're also

0:00:37.080 --> 0:00:39.400
<v Speaker 1>not going to see anything under here. This is just

0:00:39.960 --> 0:00:43.839
<v Speaker 1>I'm just free to be right now. These women are

0:00:44.120 --> 0:00:50.000
<v Speaker 1>artists and politicians, amateur kickboxers, mothers and lovers who didn't

0:00:50.000 --> 0:00:53.640
<v Speaker 1>back down in the face of resistance. On the Women,

0:00:54.080 --> 0:00:56.800
<v Speaker 1>we want to find out what was her first stand,

0:00:57.240 --> 0:01:00.760
<v Speaker 1>how does she navigate success and failure, and what are

0:01:00.760 --> 0:01:04.200
<v Speaker 1>the cost of fighting for others. I'll speak with Dr

0:01:04.280 --> 0:01:08.240
<v Speaker 1>Monahannah Tisha, the pediatrician who exposed the front water crisis,

0:01:08.640 --> 0:01:12.240
<v Speaker 1>risking her career to challenge Michigan authorities go after me

0:01:12.280 --> 0:01:14.600
<v Speaker 1>all you want. This has nothing to do with me,

0:01:14.840 --> 0:01:18.560
<v Speaker 1>But this has everything to do with my kids. A

0:01:18.680 --> 0:01:21.720
<v Speaker 1>chat with my own teenage icon, the sixties singer, songwriter

0:01:21.760 --> 0:01:24.760
<v Speaker 1>and activist Buffy St. Marie. We were being told in

0:01:24.760 --> 0:01:27.640
<v Speaker 1>the nineties it was no war I yet now and

0:01:27.800 --> 0:01:31.319
<v Speaker 1>I'll find out why former CIA agent Valerie Plane is

0:01:31.360 --> 0:01:34.120
<v Speaker 1>now running for Congress. Everything prior to that was all

0:01:34.160 --> 0:01:36.479
<v Speaker 1>about being discreet. But then when I realized I had

0:01:36.520 --> 0:01:38.399
<v Speaker 1>a voice, that I could speak about things that I

0:01:38.440 --> 0:01:41.520
<v Speaker 1>really care about, whether it's nuclear weapons, whether it's proves

0:01:41.560 --> 0:01:44.039
<v Speaker 1>part of depression. These are just a few of the

0:01:44.080 --> 0:01:47.680
<v Speaker 1>twenty six extraordinary women you'll meet this season. It's like

0:01:47.720 --> 0:01:49.120
<v Speaker 1>one of those things you don't know if you want

0:01:49.120 --> 0:01:52.040
<v Speaker 1>to be someone's friend or be them. It's like one

0:01:52.080 --> 0:01:57.120
