I know you never know with us. 6 00:00:31,840 --> 00:00:36,400 Speaker 1: So today is December one. I just got my booster. 7 00:00:36,920 --> 00:00:39,680 Speaker 1: Still feeling okay a little bit, but I'm feeling good, 8 00:00:39,800 --> 00:00:42,839 Speaker 1: feeling good, feeling happy about it. I will say the 9 00:00:42,880 --> 00:00:45,640 Speaker 1: person who did my shot was very gentle. I told 10 00:00:45,640 --> 00:00:48,519 Speaker 1: her after the fact that she was very kind. It 11 00:00:48,760 --> 00:00:52,720 Speaker 1: was like kind of massage my arm. So yeah, it 12 00:00:52,800 --> 00:00:55,800 Speaker 1: was at a Walgreens over here in East East Point, Georgia, 13 00:00:56,000 --> 00:01:00,400 Speaker 1: if you know where that is. But we're not talking 14 00:01:00,400 --> 00:01:02,720 Speaker 1: about shots today from my Women around the World. I 15 00:01:02,720 --> 00:01:07,400 Speaker 1: don't know why, but we are talking about this year 16 00:01:07,560 --> 00:01:10,600 Speaker 1: and the fact that we decided to start this segment 17 00:01:10,760 --> 00:01:13,760 Speaker 1: and how I love I've loved the segment. Ay, I 18 00:01:13,760 --> 00:01:17,520 Speaker 1: don't know about you. Um. I really love digging into 19 00:01:17,800 --> 00:01:22,080 Speaker 1: seeing who is doing what and just basking in their 20 00:01:22,200 --> 00:01:25,120 Speaker 1: amazing nous. Yeah, now I love it too. I love 21 00:01:25,640 --> 00:01:29,480 Speaker 1: hearing about people I don't normally hear about in the news, 22 00:01:29,680 --> 00:01:34,160 Speaker 1: and like all of the creative ways that they've advocated 23 00:01:34,280 --> 00:01:38,480 Speaker 1: or been active around an issue, whether that's art or government. 24 00:01:38,520 --> 00:01:40,880 Speaker 1: I just find so many, so many other stories that 25 00:01:40,920 --> 00:01:45,160 Speaker 1: I'm like, this is so cool and it I find 26 00:01:45,160 --> 00:01:49,040 Speaker 1: it really inspiring that there are all of these different 27 00:01:49,080 --> 00:01:51,160 Speaker 1: ways that you can do that that you can't advocate. 28 00:01:51,200 --> 00:01:52,800 Speaker 1: It doesn't have to look one way, it can look 29 00:01:53,080 --> 00:01:56,360 Speaker 1: a bunch of different ways, right, And I was trying 30 00:01:56,360 --> 00:01:59,559 Speaker 1: to count how many we did I want to say, 31 00:01:59,640 --> 00:02:02,160 Speaker 1: include eating the fictional women around the world. We have 32 00:02:02,320 --> 00:02:06,560 Speaker 1: about forty four to forty five because a few of 33 00:02:06,600 --> 00:02:09,760 Speaker 1: these we kind of hopped around and did some other things. 34 00:02:09,800 --> 00:02:12,639 Speaker 1: But yeah, I think that's how many we've gotten. And 35 00:02:12,800 --> 00:02:14,919 Speaker 1: I know we are just at the tip of the 36 00:02:14,960 --> 00:02:18,639 Speaker 1: iceberg when we have these conversations. One of the big 37 00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:21,440 Speaker 1: things that I wanted to do with the segment um 38 00:02:21,480 --> 00:02:23,880 Speaker 1: and any you and I talked about was just really 39 00:02:24,520 --> 00:02:27,120 Speaker 1: giving the flowers to those who are still alive today 40 00:02:27,120 --> 00:02:31,320 Speaker 1: instead of waiting and just celebrating in memorandum, as well 41 00:02:31,360 --> 00:02:34,000 Speaker 1: as the fact that, yeah, there are so many things 42 00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:36,799 Speaker 1: happening around the world that we don't know. We are 43 00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:40,840 Speaker 1: very obviously United States centric, not because we want to, 44 00:02:40,960 --> 00:02:43,120 Speaker 1: but because That's kind of how it goes. When you 45 00:02:43,160 --> 00:02:46,880 Speaker 1: get your news, it's directly affected, very localized. Sometimes only 46 00:02:46,919 --> 00:02:49,120 Speaker 1: Atlanta's half the times it feels like for me, I 47 00:02:49,120 --> 00:02:52,360 Speaker 1: don't know about you any um, maybe your fictional worlds, 48 00:02:52,360 --> 00:02:56,919 Speaker 1: so that's your localized bits of news. So it's been 49 00:02:57,040 --> 00:02:59,480 Speaker 1: like really fun to try to really dig in and 50 00:02:59,520 --> 00:03:02,520 Speaker 1: dig deep. I will say. The frustrating part is not 51 00:03:02,600 --> 00:03:05,360 Speaker 1: having enough information, um, and I want to talk about 52 00:03:05,400 --> 00:03:07,000 Speaker 1: what they did, and I want to talk about what 53 00:03:07,040 --> 00:03:09,720 Speaker 1: they're doing, but we literally are like, oh, this is 54 00:03:09,760 --> 00:03:12,240 Speaker 1: only three minutes long because I can't find all of 55 00:03:12,280 --> 00:03:15,920 Speaker 1: the in depth information. Maybe it's because of a language barrier, 56 00:03:16,240 --> 00:03:19,320 Speaker 1: or maybe it's because not enough people are talking about it. 57 00:03:19,639 --> 00:03:22,000 Speaker 1: You know, we've featured several women who haven't been on 58 00:03:22,040 --> 00:03:25,679 Speaker 1: Wikipedia yet are not Wikipedia level, which they should be, 59 00:03:26,560 --> 00:03:30,480 Speaker 1: let's say that. But we have those moments as well, 60 00:03:30,880 --> 00:03:33,560 Speaker 1: so discovering some things, so kind of highlighting some of 61 00:03:33,600 --> 00:03:35,680 Speaker 1: the people that we have talked about. Of course, we 62 00:03:35,720 --> 00:03:39,240 Speaker 1: have to shout out Nicola Mitchell, who created Girls Who Brunch. 63 00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:42,480 Speaker 1: She was a past winner for Lorials Women of Worth 64 00:03:42,800 --> 00:03:45,720 Speaker 1: and he's doing some amazing things. Apparently we might see 65 00:03:45,760 --> 00:03:48,760 Speaker 1: her on some other things. I guess we can't mention 66 00:03:48,800 --> 00:03:52,760 Speaker 1: it because she told us affair, didn't she almost I 67 00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:56,240 Speaker 1: almost blew it. But she's doing some amazing things. She's 68 00:03:56,280 --> 00:03:58,160 Speaker 1: also an author, so if you look up her name, 69 00:03:58,200 --> 00:04:00,120 Speaker 1: she's got a bunch of amazing books out there there, 70 00:04:00,240 --> 00:04:02,760 Speaker 1: y'all should check it out. Having her on the show 71 00:04:02,840 --> 00:04:06,400 Speaker 1: talk about what she's doing, how she's been influencing so 72 00:04:06,480 --> 00:04:08,920 Speaker 1: many of those around her just from her own past, 73 00:04:09,080 --> 00:04:11,280 Speaker 1: And I think that's what another part of women around 74 00:04:11,320 --> 00:04:13,920 Speaker 1: the world for me, is that they're coming from maybe 75 00:04:13,920 --> 00:04:16,799 Speaker 1: a struggle or maybe something they were lacking, or maybe 76 00:04:16,800 --> 00:04:19,760 Speaker 1: seeing seeing something that was missing in their community, and 77 00:04:19,800 --> 00:04:22,839 Speaker 1: they really took it to heart and did something about it. 78 00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:26,360 Speaker 1: And honestly, that's what I think. As a child, I 79 00:04:26,520 --> 00:04:29,640 Speaker 1: never really had big aspirations to be this, this or that, 80 00:04:29,960 --> 00:04:31,960 Speaker 1: but that is something I wanted to be able to 81 00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:34,440 Speaker 1: say that I did. It was that I gave back 82 00:04:34,480 --> 00:04:37,960 Speaker 1: to the community when I saw something was lacking, or 83 00:04:38,040 --> 00:04:41,480 Speaker 1: I took something that was so disheartening for me as 84 00:04:41,480 --> 00:04:43,640 Speaker 1: a kid when I was missing all these things, and 85 00:04:43,680 --> 00:04:46,680 Speaker 1: I came back and decided to do it for those kids, 86 00:04:47,200 --> 00:04:50,160 Speaker 1: um and or people in general. Yeah, Yeah, and I 87 00:04:50,200 --> 00:04:52,799 Speaker 1: think I love hearing these stories too, of the importance 88 00:04:52,839 --> 00:04:55,240 Speaker 1: of seeing like having that mentor that person you can 89 00:04:55,279 --> 00:04:59,279 Speaker 1: look up to, and knowing that these women, by doing 90 00:04:59,320 --> 00:05:02,400 Speaker 1: what they're doing, are impacting so many others who might 91 00:05:02,400 --> 00:05:04,719 Speaker 1: go on to impact their communities and so on and 92 00:05:04,760 --> 00:05:08,880 Speaker 1: so forth, which I find just so inspiring. It is. 93 00:05:08,920 --> 00:05:12,120 Speaker 1: And yeah, kind of like another loreal women of birth 94 00:05:12,160 --> 00:05:14,239 Speaker 1: that we kind of brought it that we hadn't intend 95 00:05:14,279 --> 00:05:17,560 Speaker 1: to do with Jahad Gray who has been working to 96 00:05:17,640 --> 00:05:22,039 Speaker 1: and female genital mutilation of children and arranged marriages, and 97 00:05:22,080 --> 00:05:25,560 Speaker 1: she had an amazing story and just really pushing for 98 00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:30,120 Speaker 1: organizations to take keyed and making a change for her 99 00:05:30,120 --> 00:05:32,280 Speaker 1: community as well. I think she moved Atlanta. I don't 100 00:05:32,279 --> 00:05:35,520 Speaker 1: know if she's still here or not. That would be 101 00:05:35,600 --> 00:05:38,920 Speaker 1: nice to know. And then Gladys Reddick, who has been 102 00:05:38,920 --> 00:05:42,599 Speaker 1: working for the movement Missing Murdered Indigenous Women Girls and 103 00:05:42,640 --> 00:05:45,599 Speaker 1: two Spirits. She was the one that had created the 104 00:05:45,640 --> 00:05:48,599 Speaker 1: Walk for Justice and has been so much in bringing 105 00:05:48,640 --> 00:05:55,279 Speaker 1: attention and like asking the hard questions for her country, 106 00:05:55,480 --> 00:05:58,480 Speaker 1: for the government saying what are you doing, um, which 107 00:05:58,560 --> 00:06:01,120 Speaker 1: is a great question we all need to be asking, 108 00:06:01,200 --> 00:06:06,440 Speaker 1: what are people doing? We had Ruby Corrado, who was 109 00:06:06,480 --> 00:06:09,680 Speaker 1: an activist and supporter from El Savador, who have been 110 00:06:09,680 --> 00:06:12,560 Speaker 1: frighting for rights and justice for the trans and l 111 00:06:12,600 --> 00:06:15,680 Speaker 1: g pt Q plus community. Like all of these different 112 00:06:15,720 --> 00:06:19,320 Speaker 1: people that we've been able to talk about, it's been amazing. 113 00:06:19,320 --> 00:06:22,280 Speaker 1: Whether it's a government official like Unity Dow who did 114 00:06:22,320 --> 00:06:25,320 Speaker 1: so much during her time in trying to make change 115 00:06:25,360 --> 00:06:28,560 Speaker 1: in our country, I just think it's so important. And 116 00:06:28,560 --> 00:06:30,520 Speaker 1: I will say these are some of the most amazing 117 00:06:30,560 --> 00:06:34,240 Speaker 1: people that we've talked about UM and can't talk enough 118 00:06:34,279 --> 00:06:38,200 Speaker 1: about honestly, Like I really UM which I could dig 119 00:06:38,240 --> 00:06:40,040 Speaker 1: more into it, and we would like love to get 120 00:06:40,040 --> 00:06:42,119 Speaker 1: to the point that we could interview some of these people, 121 00:06:42,160 --> 00:06:44,720 Speaker 1: but of course we do not always have that access 122 00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:47,720 Speaker 1: as we would hope, which we hope to change a 123 00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:50,479 Speaker 1: little bit. But yeah, and then we add a little 124 00:06:50,480 --> 00:06:54,000 Speaker 1: extra because we wanted to go beyond talking about organizations 125 00:06:54,040 --> 00:06:57,719 Speaker 1: that work for the betterment of women and those who 126 00:06:57,720 --> 00:07:01,480 Speaker 1: identify as them and girls, like we really wanted to 127 00:07:01,600 --> 00:07:04,600 Speaker 1: push to see what was happening. And yeah, a lot 128 00:07:04,680 --> 00:07:09,360 Speaker 1: of these people have started their own fights, nonprofits organizations 129 00:07:09,440 --> 00:07:13,040 Speaker 1: to make a statement, to make a push, whether it's 130 00:07:13,200 --> 00:07:17,840 Speaker 1: changing UM bad policies or just talking about some of 131 00:07:17,880 --> 00:07:20,840 Speaker 1: the injustices that have been happening around the world. So 132 00:07:20,920 --> 00:07:24,720 Speaker 1: we've added that recently, Um, what else have been we've 133 00:07:24,720 --> 00:07:31,280 Speaker 1: been doing any Well, obviously the fictional women, which was 134 00:07:31,320 --> 00:07:36,520 Speaker 1: your idea but very on board with, right, and yeah, 135 00:07:36,600 --> 00:07:39,200 Speaker 1: and I think we talked about but why it was 136 00:07:39,240 --> 00:07:43,720 Speaker 1: important that we do talk about fictional representation in media, 137 00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:47,200 Speaker 1: and that's why we said it. I mean, any tell 138 00:07:47,240 --> 00:07:52,440 Speaker 1: me why it's important. I mean, as someone who grew 139 00:07:52,520 --> 00:07:59,239 Speaker 1: up loving fiction and being very imaginative and just having 140 00:07:59,280 --> 00:08:01,920 Speaker 1: like day dreams day James and daydreams and writing things down, 141 00:08:02,720 --> 00:08:05,960 Speaker 1: it was a big deal for me when I would 142 00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:09,480 Speaker 1: see somebody that I could identify with or that reminded 143 00:08:09,520 --> 00:08:11,400 Speaker 1: me of me. And I think that those messages you 144 00:08:11,440 --> 00:08:15,600 Speaker 1: do internalize them very young. So if you're like, like 145 00:08:15,640 --> 00:08:17,560 Speaker 1: a lot of the stuff I wrote when I was younger, 146 00:08:17,640 --> 00:08:19,600 Speaker 1: it was a male character. It was the main character. 147 00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:22,920 Speaker 1: And looking back, I have a lot of thoughts about 148 00:08:22,920 --> 00:08:24,480 Speaker 1: why that is, But I think it's just because I 149 00:08:24,520 --> 00:08:29,320 Speaker 1: was seeing that a lot. And then also just apart 150 00:08:29,360 --> 00:08:33,040 Speaker 1: from the influence it has on on people as a whole, 151 00:08:33,040 --> 00:08:36,920 Speaker 1: of what we believe women can do um and especially 152 00:08:36,960 --> 00:08:42,520 Speaker 1: for young girls. I just think it's more interesting, Like 153 00:08:42,559 --> 00:08:46,880 Speaker 1: it makes better entertainment if we have these more diverse 154 00:08:46,920 --> 00:08:49,560 Speaker 1: experiences as opposed to something that's pretty much been a 155 00:08:49,559 --> 00:08:52,360 Speaker 1: monolitht for a long time with some outliers Like I 156 00:08:52,400 --> 00:08:55,680 Speaker 1: think it's just it makes for better storytelling. It's more 157 00:08:55,760 --> 00:08:59,800 Speaker 1: representative of us of the world, which I think is 158 00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:03,080 Speaker 1: really really important. So it's always like, we want good stories, 159 00:09:03,200 --> 00:09:08,280 Speaker 1: right right, we want very rounded stories, and yeah, we 160 00:09:08,360 --> 00:09:12,280 Speaker 1: need more. Honestly, as you are bringing more and more 161 00:09:12,280 --> 00:09:14,960 Speaker 1: people out, I love it. It's kind of like, who 162 00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:17,120 Speaker 1: is this person? Tell me what's going on and the 163 00:09:17,160 --> 00:09:21,560 Speaker 1: fact that yeah, there is now a request because I 164 00:09:21,559 --> 00:09:25,480 Speaker 1: don't feel like we don't demand enough, but for more 165 00:09:25,480 --> 00:09:30,760 Speaker 1: diverse people who represent us as individuals and recognizing that yes, 166 00:09:31,120 --> 00:09:35,400 Speaker 1: there are young women, girls, non binary, trans people who 167 00:09:35,520 --> 00:09:39,600 Speaker 1: love this stuff too. We should be represented, yes, And 168 00:09:39,720 --> 00:09:42,520 Speaker 1: I think that it does excite me. It's it's one 169 00:09:42,559 --> 00:09:45,560 Speaker 1: of those things where I'm like with everything we talked about, 170 00:09:46,960 --> 00:09:52,400 Speaker 1: it's the hesitation, but also the optimism because I feel 171 00:09:52,440 --> 00:09:55,760 Speaker 1: like we are seeing more mainstream, like we're seeing more 172 00:09:56,160 --> 00:10:00,280 Speaker 1: diverse like superhero movies and things like Star wars are 173 00:10:00,360 --> 00:10:04,360 Speaker 1: divers fying. You're like, I wanted to be handled well 174 00:10:04,800 --> 00:10:08,520 Speaker 1: and respectfully, so there's always that very as well, and 175 00:10:08,600 --> 00:10:10,720 Speaker 1: of course the fan boys and all the backlash, which 176 00:10:10,760 --> 00:10:14,880 Speaker 1: is very frustrating, but that does make me. I am 177 00:10:14,920 --> 00:10:18,360 Speaker 1: happy to see it. I'm happy that it's moving that way. UM. 178 00:10:18,400 --> 00:10:20,520 Speaker 1: I still think like we could do so so, so 179 00:10:20,520 --> 00:10:23,840 Speaker 1: so much more, um in terms of like women and 180 00:10:23,960 --> 00:10:27,240 Speaker 1: race and also like queer stories. This is why I 181 00:10:27,240 --> 00:10:29,040 Speaker 1: go to fan fiction all the time because I could 182 00:10:29,080 --> 00:10:33,760 Speaker 1: find that there. But I am happy that it seems 183 00:10:33,760 --> 00:10:39,559 Speaker 1: to be becoming more common and also less acceptable for 184 00:10:39,640 --> 00:10:43,440 Speaker 1: someone I'm not going to say that it's way better, 185 00:10:43,480 --> 00:10:45,439 Speaker 1: but it's becoming less acceptable for somebody to tell the 186 00:10:45,520 --> 00:10:48,600 Speaker 1: story who really shouldn't be telling the story at the 187 00:10:48,640 --> 00:11:05,080 Speaker 1: very least of getting called in as they should. What 188 00:11:05,240 --> 00:11:08,080 Speaker 1: do you have in store? Because I know you're already 189 00:11:08,080 --> 00:11:10,080 Speaker 1: thinking it. This is kind of the inside joke between 190 00:11:10,120 --> 00:11:13,160 Speaker 1: all of us that Annie's already prepared and has been 191 00:11:13,160 --> 00:11:15,680 Speaker 1: trying to rein it in. But what can we look 192 00:11:15,720 --> 00:11:18,920 Speaker 1: forward to in the next year or in this year, 193 00:11:19,040 --> 00:11:22,760 Speaker 1: whichever it is. That's a good question, because I do 194 00:11:22,840 --> 00:11:24,880 Speaker 1: have a list, and it's got like fifty names on it. 195 00:11:25,040 --> 00:11:32,080 Speaker 1: I really appreciate listeners who have written in with their suggestions. 196 00:11:32,520 --> 00:11:36,559 Speaker 1: I do think so far. I like Mile Lopez and 197 00:11:36,640 --> 00:11:39,680 Speaker 1: Echo on Hawkeye, and she's getting her own show, so 198 00:11:39,720 --> 00:11:44,040 Speaker 1: I think that would be interesting to visit. Um and 199 00:11:44,120 --> 00:11:49,160 Speaker 1: she's an indigenous deaf character and actor UM, so I 200 00:11:49,200 --> 00:11:52,120 Speaker 1: think that would be really cool. Obviously a SOCA, there 201 00:11:52,120 --> 00:11:53,840 Speaker 1: will be some interesting things to talk about with that, 202 00:11:53,880 --> 00:11:56,840 Speaker 1: but that show is coming out, so that would be interesting. 203 00:11:56,840 --> 00:12:00,120 Speaker 1: There's a lot of like we said and whatever was 204 00:12:00,120 --> 00:12:03,560 Speaker 1: it the Hawkeye episode, There's a lot of content coming 205 00:12:03,559 --> 00:12:07,120 Speaker 1: out and I'm kind of overwhelmed. I'm not saying something 206 00:12:07,160 --> 00:12:13,880 Speaker 1: because I big fan, but I'm like, WHOA, I'm interested 207 00:12:13,920 --> 00:12:19,720 Speaker 1: to see how they handle quote Lady thor Yeah, like 208 00:12:19,840 --> 00:12:22,440 Speaker 1: characters like that where it's kind of like the woman 209 00:12:22,720 --> 00:12:27,120 Speaker 1: version of this, which I'm hoping they'll kind of upgrade 210 00:12:27,160 --> 00:12:30,720 Speaker 1: into it's not just the woman version of this man character. 211 00:12:30,880 --> 00:12:34,280 Speaker 1: They're actually their own characters. That would be nice. It 212 00:12:34,320 --> 00:12:41,079 Speaker 1: would be nice, but that would be nice to see. Yes, yes, yes, 213 00:12:41,520 --> 00:12:43,680 Speaker 1: I hope Afre shows up. We already did an episode 214 00:12:43,679 --> 00:12:46,120 Speaker 1: on her, but I hope she shows up soon. Anyway, 215 00:12:45,880 --> 00:12:48,920 Speaker 1: I've got a lot of a lot of ideas, but 216 00:12:49,000 --> 00:12:51,640 Speaker 1: I do want, like, as as passionate as I am 217 00:12:51,679 --> 00:12:55,120 Speaker 1: about this, please listener to send in your request. The 218 00:12:55,120 --> 00:12:58,160 Speaker 1: Ted last one was listening test And it's not that 219 00:12:58,240 --> 00:13:00,000 Speaker 1: I had never wanted to see it, but I probably 220 00:13:00,000 --> 00:13:04,160 Speaker 1: we wouldn't have watched it, um if not for that episode, 221 00:13:04,360 --> 00:13:07,440 Speaker 1: and I really really loved it. So I love I 222 00:13:07,480 --> 00:13:10,520 Speaker 1: love finding these new characters that are really resonating with people, 223 00:13:11,080 --> 00:13:15,439 Speaker 1: as I love Ted Lasso, I love Rebecca um. But yeah, 224 00:13:15,559 --> 00:13:18,360 Speaker 1: as as she's saying, we do love the suggestions and 225 00:13:18,400 --> 00:13:20,840 Speaker 1: we do read them, we do hear them. Sometimes it 226 00:13:20,920 --> 00:13:23,480 Speaker 1: might take us a while because you know, it takes 227 00:13:23,520 --> 00:13:26,640 Speaker 1: us a while, but we do we'll see them. And 228 00:13:26,679 --> 00:13:29,560 Speaker 1: speaking of which, we had one of our favorite segments 229 00:13:29,559 --> 00:13:32,839 Speaker 1: where listener Taylor sent us a bunch of information pretty 230 00:13:32,880 --> 00:13:35,400 Speaker 1: much wrote a show for us because they were so 231 00:13:35,480 --> 00:13:38,960 Speaker 1: excited about that as well as knowing and understanding what 232 00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:42,920 Speaker 1: was happening and wanting to highlight. We loved that, um, 233 00:13:42,960 --> 00:13:46,160 Speaker 1: not just because it was easy for us, but also 234 00:13:46,280 --> 00:13:48,800 Speaker 1: because we don't always know what's going on out there. 235 00:13:49,200 --> 00:13:53,200 Speaker 1: We try so hard to highlight as much as we can. Obviously, again, 236 00:13:53,240 --> 00:13:55,679 Speaker 1: like we said, it's very centralized because it's just Anie 237 00:13:55,679 --> 00:13:58,720 Speaker 1: and I doing the research, looking up Google, telling Google 238 00:13:58,760 --> 00:14:01,160 Speaker 1: to find it for us, or not looking at the tweets, 239 00:14:01,160 --> 00:14:03,880 Speaker 1: hoping that we're connected enough looking at all of what 240 00:14:03,960 --> 00:14:07,720 Speaker 1: we can for the newest information, but we don't always 241 00:14:07,720 --> 00:14:10,880 Speaker 1: know what's happening. So we are giving a call out 242 00:14:11,320 --> 00:14:14,360 Speaker 1: to y'all the listeners. And we actually had someone sending 243 00:14:14,400 --> 00:14:16,600 Speaker 1: in about the information about Poland, what was happening in 244 00:14:16,600 --> 00:14:20,600 Speaker 1: Poland and giving us organizations about in Germany and allies 245 00:14:20,640 --> 00:14:23,120 Speaker 1: and all of that. Things like that are so helpful. 246 00:14:23,360 --> 00:14:27,600 Speaker 1: So if you're interested in having your information slash something 247 00:14:27,640 --> 00:14:30,160 Speaker 1: that you think is really really important or something amazing 248 00:14:30,200 --> 00:14:32,560 Speaker 1: that's happening, or a woman or a person that identifies 249 00:14:32,600 --> 00:14:35,800 Speaker 1: film or non binary, really think that they need to 250 00:14:35,840 --> 00:14:38,840 Speaker 1: be highlighted, send it in. You would love to do 251 00:14:38,960 --> 00:14:42,080 Speaker 1: like a monthly episode dedicated to the people that you 252 00:14:42,200 --> 00:14:45,360 Speaker 1: think need to be highlighted. So please, if that is 253 00:14:45,360 --> 00:14:48,080 Speaker 1: something you are interested in, you automatically have someone in mind. 254 00:14:48,080 --> 00:14:51,600 Speaker 1: As soon as I said this, now again we want 255 00:14:51,640 --> 00:14:54,080 Speaker 1: this to be outside of the US as much as 256 00:14:54,080 --> 00:14:58,240 Speaker 1: possible because we want to connect with all of our 257 00:14:58,280 --> 00:15:00,000 Speaker 1: listeners so we know we have a lot of listening 258 00:15:00,120 --> 00:15:02,400 Speaker 1: in India. Something's going on there you want to tell 259 00:15:02,480 --> 00:15:05,120 Speaker 1: us about. We obviously have some listeners in Poland, would 260 00:15:05,160 --> 00:15:08,200 Speaker 1: love to hear what's going on there as well. Canada 261 00:15:08,240 --> 00:15:10,880 Speaker 1: give it to us, England, give it to us. Anywhere. Chili. 262 00:15:11,760 --> 00:15:14,520 Speaker 1: We know that we have some listenership there.

We want that 264 00:15:17,040 --> 00:15:20,040 Speaker 1: to be highlighted, and we think it's important that you 265 00:15:20,080 --> 00:15:23,280 Speaker 1: are involved as well. Yes, please, please please, and that 266 00:15:23,320 --> 00:15:26,960 Speaker 1: we would love to feature any of those stories. Resources 267 00:15:27,000 --> 00:15:30,400 Speaker 1: are always welcome, just because, like like Samantha said, sometimes 268 00:15:30,520 --> 00:15:32,280 Speaker 1: it's hard for us to hunt those down I think 269 00:15:32,560 --> 00:15:34,960 Speaker 1: being in America and based on what the Google algorithm 270 00:15:35,040 --> 00:15:37,680 Speaker 1: is here. But yes, please send those to us if 271 00:15:37,680 --> 00:15:39,760 Speaker 1: you're in the US and you're like, oh, we still 272 00:15:39,760 --> 00:15:42,960 Speaker 1: want to hear from you. Yeah, and if there's anything 273 00:15:43,000 --> 00:15:46,440 Speaker 1: amazing going on around you, because believe us, there's so many, 274 00:15:46,480 --> 00:15:49,120 Speaker 1: so many things we could talk about um and this 275 00:15:49,200 --> 00:15:53,480 Speaker 1: is but one of our many segments. So right, yes, yes, 276 00:15:54,440 --> 00:15:58,920 Speaker 1: these listeners you our only hope, right, I see what 277 00:15:58,960 --> 00:16:02,200 Speaker 1: you did that there? Yeah.
