00:00:06,160 --> 00:00:08,719
Speaker 1: told you a production of I Heart Radios how stuff works.

3
00:00:21,840 --> 00:00:25,440
Speaker 1: And we have a very important announcement for you listener today.

4
00:00:26,200 --> 00:00:30,400

5
00:00:30,520 --> 00:00:34,040
Speaker 1: She's back, just like you said you would be. And

6
00:00:34,080 --> 00:00:36,879
Speaker 1: I told you I had a master plan. Yes, and

7
00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:40,320
Speaker 1: it worked because you are coming on as co host

8
00:00:40,720 --> 00:00:46,199
Speaker 1: all time time. Get rid of me. It happened, It

9
00:00:46,360 --> 00:00:51,000
Speaker 1: did it did. I'm very impressed. I'm sat in the

10
00:00:51,040 --> 00:00:54,200
Speaker 1: corner for so many days. She just did it. I

11
00:00:54,240 --> 00:00:58,240
Speaker 1: finally did it. Well. Welcome Samantha. So happy to have you.

12
00:00:58,400 --> 00:01:00,960
Speaker 1: Thank you. I'm so glad to be here. I hope,

13
00:01:02,920 --> 00:01:10,080
Speaker 1: meaning also that everybody else is happy. I'm sure they are. I. UM,

14
00:01:11,560 --> 00:01:14,880
Speaker 1: when we started working on this mini series, because for

15
00:01:14,959 --> 00:01:17,800
Speaker 1: this episode, we're going to kind of just it's it's

16
00:01:17,800 --> 00:01:21,800
Speaker 1: gonna be conversational, UM discussion. I get to know you.

17
00:01:21,920 --> 00:01:24,319
Speaker 1: Let's say yes, even though we already had to get

18
00:01:24,360 --> 00:01:27,520
Speaker 1: to know you and are we failures but kind of

19
00:01:27,560 --> 00:01:30,080
Speaker 1: like a state of the union of the show, past

20
00:01:30,120 --> 00:01:33,800
Speaker 1: present future, um, And we wanted to say when we

21
00:01:33,840 --> 00:01:38,040
Speaker 1: first started the miniseries on Trauma, we did not know

22
00:01:38,520 --> 00:01:40,000
Speaker 1: that this was going to happen. We did not know

23
00:01:40,040 --> 00:01:43,360
Speaker 1: that you were going to come on full time, right. Um.

24
00:01:43,400 --> 00:01:46,040
Speaker 1: I think when we initially had the conversation of whether

25
00:01:46,120 --> 00:01:48,000
Speaker 1: or not I should be on for full time, it

26
00:01:48,080 --> 00:01:50,920
Speaker 1: was in the middle of of the episodes we were recording.

27
00:01:51,880 --> 00:01:53,640
Speaker 1: I think we were like an episode four or five,

28
00:01:53,720 --> 00:01:57,480
Speaker 1: We're like, hey, this might actually work. Um. My intent

29
00:01:57,600 --> 00:02:00,600
Speaker 1: was not necessarily a being on a podcast as in fact,

30
00:02:00,800 --> 00:02:03,200
Speaker 1: I'm the friend of those who are on podcast, like you.

31
00:02:03,240 --> 00:02:05,920
Speaker 1: I knew you before coming onto the show. We were

32
00:02:05,960 --> 00:02:09,280
Speaker 1: friends and hanging out. Caroline, who was with spenty earlier

33
00:02:09,360 --> 00:02:11,440
Speaker 1: now with them lady like, she and I are good friends,

34
00:02:11,720 --> 00:02:15,080
Speaker 1: so I knew like of that world. So being a

35
00:02:15,120 --> 00:02:19,519
Speaker 1: part of it's really weird. It is, yes, Um, but

36
00:02:19,560 --> 00:02:22,480
Speaker 1: now I'm like, oh, I'm one of the cool kids. Yeah. Yeah.

37
00:02:22,800 --> 00:02:26,280
Speaker 1: I ask people how your my voice and are confused

38
00:02:26,280 --> 00:02:33,640
Speaker 1: by my words? Great the podcaster's motto. Um yeah, it's

39
00:02:33,680 --> 00:02:38,840
Speaker 1: funny because, um, I was looking for a co host

40
00:02:38,919 --> 00:02:42,000
Speaker 1: and kind of trying to figure out what I wanted

41
00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:46,040
Speaker 1: this show to be, and um, as we were talking

42
00:02:46,120 --> 00:02:50,600
Speaker 1: about it with like some of our executive producers, producers, bosses,

43
00:02:50,639 --> 00:02:52,280
Speaker 1: around here. They thought we were trying to pull some

44
00:02:52,400 --> 00:02:55,800
Speaker 1: kind of fast one. Yes did I didn't. I didn't

45
00:02:55,840 --> 00:02:57,880
Speaker 1: know that one. What did they think we were trying

46
00:02:57,919 --> 00:02:59,960
Speaker 1: to do. They thought we were like trying to get

47
00:03:00,040 --> 00:03:04,240
Speaker 1: you established and then bring you on full time. But

48
00:03:04,560 --> 00:03:06,840
Speaker 1: I mean, I guess we were. We didn't have some

49
00:03:06,919 --> 00:03:10,240
Speaker 1: kind of master That wasn't the beginning because you and

50
00:03:10,280 --> 00:03:12,080
Speaker 1: I talked about it, and I joked around for a

51
00:03:12,080 --> 00:03:13,919
Speaker 1: while like yeah, I'm gonna keep doing this. But then

52
00:03:13,919 --> 00:03:16,520
Speaker 1: at the same time, I have another job as well

53
00:03:16,560 --> 00:03:19,280
Speaker 1: as I had another job on top of that. Yeah,

54
00:03:19,520 --> 00:03:22,560
Speaker 1: so many jobs, y'all. Um that it was not really

55
00:03:22,560 --> 00:03:24,840
Speaker 1: in my intent as much as I'm passionate about this

56
00:03:24,919 --> 00:03:29,000
Speaker 1: specific topic. So let's talk and let's research. And then

57
00:03:29,080 --> 00:03:32,280
Speaker 1: I was like, hey, oh, you are jelling. Well, let's

58
00:03:32,320 --> 00:03:34,360
Speaker 1: try the cell. Let's let's see how far we can

59
00:03:34,360 --> 00:03:37,960
Speaker 1: go with this until someone says stop it. I'm still

60
00:03:37,960 --> 00:03:40,480
Speaker 1: waiting for someone to say stop it. Yeah. Yeah, well

61
00:03:40,560 --> 00:03:45,680
Speaker 1: me too. For some transparency on my end, I know that. Um,

62
00:03:45,840 --> 00:03:48,920
Speaker 1: it's been a confusing couple of months for listeners. I

63
00:03:48,920 --> 00:03:52,360
Speaker 1: think since November. UM it's been confusing for me too,

64
00:03:52,440 --> 00:03:56,080
Speaker 1: because because of contracts and schedules. I wasn't sure when

65
00:03:56,080 --> 00:03:58,480
Speaker 1: and if Bridget would come back, and I think no

66
00:03:58,520 --> 00:04:01,640
Speaker 1: one was really sure, um. And I was waiting for

67
00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:04,480
Speaker 1: more information so that I could better plan and share

68
00:04:04,520 --> 00:04:08,360
Speaker 1: that plan with everyone, but never really came. And I

69
00:04:08,440 --> 00:04:12,280
Speaker 1: don't think this is anyone's fault really, but it comes

70
00:04:12,320 --> 00:04:16,760
Speaker 1: down to a lack of communication or unclear communication, um,

71
00:04:16,839 --> 00:04:20,680
Speaker 1: and the reason on pretty much everyone's part. And as

72
00:04:20,720 --> 00:04:24,039
Speaker 1: I often espouse the power of communication, the reason I

73
00:04:24,080 --> 00:04:26,160
Speaker 1: have to do that is communication is hard or it's

74
00:04:26,160 --> 00:04:28,040
Speaker 1: really easy to get busy and lose your handle on it.

75
00:04:28,480 --> 00:04:30,880
Speaker 1: And it's just like when there's so many moving parts

76
00:04:30,920 --> 00:04:36,000
Speaker 1: and people, um, right, Like I can't believe it took months,

77
00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:39,840
Speaker 1: but there's a lot of conversations to be had, and

78
00:04:40,160 --> 00:04:42,040
Speaker 1: there's been a lot of shifting, if I am correct,

79
00:04:42,120 --> 00:04:44,680
Speaker 1: in the last few years, so it's not like it's

80
00:04:44,720 --> 00:04:46,640
Speaker 1: just been the last couple of months. There's been a

81
00:04:46,680 --> 00:04:50,680
Speaker 1: constant shift. Hopefully it'll be a little more consistent. I'm

82
00:04:50,680 --> 00:04:54,440
Speaker 1: gonna cross my fingers because that means a lot for me. Yes,

83
00:04:54,560 --> 00:04:59,680
Speaker 1: and I really really appreciate you listeners being patient and

84
00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:05,720
Speaker 1: sticking around while we sworked through these things, because um,

85
00:05:05,839 --> 00:05:08,440
Speaker 1: it does. It means a lot, and and Bridget has

86
00:05:08,800 --> 00:05:11,719
Speaker 1: another project on the horizon. Hopefully she'll be back to

87
00:05:11,760 --> 00:05:14,840
Speaker 1: talk about it one day. But in the meantime, you

88
00:05:14,880 --> 00:05:17,640
Speaker 1: can follow her on social media. She's reveryactive on social media,

89
00:05:17,720 --> 00:05:19,480
Speaker 1: so that's great, and you can keep up with the

90
00:05:19,480 --> 00:05:21,520
Speaker 1: work she's been doing. Yeah, she's been doing some badass

91
00:05:21,520 --> 00:05:24,480
Speaker 1: work with afro punk. And she followed the Wyatt's sce

92
00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:28,960
Speaker 1: Neck Problem area tour HBO, right, and that was super cool.

93
00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:30,880
Speaker 1: I was like Dan because I've met it Bridget and

94
00:05:30,880 --> 00:05:33,000
Speaker 1: she has a super cool girl like I was. I

95
00:05:33,040 --> 00:05:34,719
Speaker 1: told her I wanted to be her friend too, but

96
00:05:35,120 --> 00:05:40,800
Speaker 1: I think she ran away from me. That's fair. UM.

97
00:05:40,839 --> 00:05:43,200
Speaker 1: And on a personal level, for me, this has been

98
00:05:43,240 --> 00:05:46,479
Speaker 1: the mistressful UM and I'm super really to have a

99
00:05:46,520 --> 00:05:49,919
Speaker 1: partner in crime, but it has also forced me to

100
00:05:49,920 --> 00:05:53,360
Speaker 1: think about what I want for the future. And and

101
00:05:53,400 --> 00:05:55,400
Speaker 1: we've been talking about that together and we're gonna get

102
00:05:55,440 --> 00:05:57,359
Speaker 1: into that a little bit later, and we'd love for

103
00:05:57,440 --> 00:06:01,520
Speaker 1: listeners to help shape that. UM. And as you probably

104
00:06:01,560 --> 00:06:05,120
Speaker 1: know from the past couple of episodes, UM, I have

105
00:06:05,360 --> 00:06:12,279
Speaker 1: suffered from a lack of confidence, feelings of unworthiness, imposter syndrome. Yeah,

106
00:06:12,640 --> 00:06:15,040
Speaker 1: so this has made me face those as well, because

107
00:06:18,040 --> 00:06:21,080
Speaker 1: for a long time it was it was hard. I

108
00:06:21,160 --> 00:06:23,440
Speaker 1: just felt like I have no right to be on

109
00:06:23,520 --> 00:06:25,719
Speaker 1: this show, right, And I think you and I talked

110
00:06:25,720 --> 00:06:27,640
Speaker 1: about the fact that I had a moment of panic, like,

111
00:06:28,120 --> 00:06:30,640
Speaker 1: oh my goodness, how am I supposed to represent women

112
00:06:30,800 --> 00:06:33,680
Speaker 1: and the strength of women and those who identify as female,

113
00:06:33,800 --> 00:06:37,080
Speaker 1: being a person of color, as well as a person

114
00:06:37,120 --> 00:06:40,159
Speaker 1: who's adopted, as well as a social worker, as well

115
00:06:40,200 --> 00:06:43,040
Speaker 1: as someone in her late thirties trying to figure her

116
00:06:43,040 --> 00:06:47,400
Speaker 1: life out. Still, like, how do you represent and try

117
00:06:47,440 --> 00:06:50,360
Speaker 1: to see the full strength and push forward and be like, yeah,

118
00:06:50,680 --> 00:06:53,520
Speaker 1: we are a powerhouse when you feel like you are

119
00:06:53,560 --> 00:06:56,159
Speaker 1: crumbling sometimes. And I know one of our reviews, so

120
00:06:56,160 --> 00:06:57,480
Speaker 1: I think you and I just talked about how about

121
00:06:57,480 --> 00:07:00,320
Speaker 1: how we were lost girls or lost the mind of

122
00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:02,719
Speaker 1: the lost, and I was like, that's not too that's

123
00:07:02,720 --> 00:07:10,320
Speaker 1: not wrong, that's not wrong. No, I um I, I

124
00:07:10,360 --> 00:07:12,280
Speaker 1: know I told this story on the show before, but

125
00:07:12,480 --> 00:07:15,600
Speaker 1: I personally and there is research to back this up,

126
00:07:15,640 --> 00:07:19,200
Speaker 1: but like, on an anecdotal level, I can say that

127
00:07:19,280 --> 00:07:21,600
Speaker 1: I have been in a group of women who every

128
00:07:21,600 --> 00:07:25,960
Speaker 1: one of them has done amazing stuff. And somebody asked

129
00:07:25,960 --> 00:07:28,800
Speaker 1: the question like, who here feels like a failure and

130
00:07:28,960 --> 00:07:34,160
Speaker 1: everybody raise your hands. So I think that that feeling

131
00:07:34,280 --> 00:07:37,240
Speaker 1: is very shared among a lot of people that might

132
00:07:37,240 --> 00:07:42,200
Speaker 1: surprise you. UM, and it there is power and being

133
00:07:42,280 --> 00:07:47,880
Speaker 1: open about it and recognizing that despite feelings of that

134
00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:53,000
Speaker 1: you work any Yeah, take it till you make it,

135
00:07:53,160 --> 00:07:55,640
Speaker 1: Take it till you make it. You know. Want to

136
00:07:55,640 --> 00:07:59,680
Speaker 1: be said about that there is there is UM. So

137
00:07:59,720 --> 00:08:02,640
Speaker 1: we wanted to talk about some of the things we

138
00:08:02,640 --> 00:08:06,440
Speaker 1: were hoping to do in the future, right and already

139
00:08:06,480 --> 00:08:09,240
Speaker 1: we've gotten so many suggestions and I know there's so

140
00:08:09,240 --> 00:08:11,880
Speaker 1: many things that they want us to revisit that has

141
00:08:11,920 --> 00:08:14,520
Speaker 1: been visited in the past that's meant to be around,

142
00:08:15,160 --> 00:08:19,680
Speaker 1: oh lord a long time when it started with Kristen

143
00:08:19,760 --> 00:08:23,120
Speaker 1: and Molly and UM, and I know things have changed,

144
00:08:23,440 --> 00:08:27,080
Speaker 1: Things have changed even in the last ten years, five years,

145
00:08:27,080 --> 00:08:30,640
Speaker 1: three years, UM. And with that revisiting some of the

146
00:08:30,640 --> 00:08:33,800
Speaker 1: same issues, you're going to find different results. And I

147
00:08:33,880 --> 00:08:36,560
Speaker 1: think that's a conversation that we have to come back to.

148
00:08:37,200 --> 00:08:39,360
Speaker 1: Though you might be like you've already had an episode

149
00:08:39,360 --> 00:08:41,640
Speaker 1: on this or this or this we had You've done

150
00:08:41,640 --> 00:08:44,160
Speaker 1: so many different episodes. When you and I talked, you like, yeah,

151
00:08:44,200 --> 00:08:45,880
Speaker 1: we did this, or or I'd look back and I

152
00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:48,199
Speaker 1: see that, you know, past hosts have done this. But

153
00:08:48,320 --> 00:08:50,640
Speaker 1: I'm like, but yeah, but it's different now, and we've

154
00:08:50,640 --> 00:08:52,800
Speaker 1: talked about that. Um, even the fact that we have

155
00:08:52,880 --> 00:08:55,880
Speaker 1: to kind of go backwards, UM with some of the

156
00:08:55,960 --> 00:08:59,920
Speaker 1: laws and policies that was once once taken care of

157
00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:03,360
Speaker 1: of twenty years ago. Now we're having to revisit and

158
00:09:03,360 --> 00:09:06,439
Speaker 1: having another conversation about why some of the research they're

159
00:09:06,440 --> 00:09:09,280
Speaker 1: trying to about out is actually incorrect and we've got

160
00:09:09,280 --> 00:09:13,040
Speaker 1: more information about why, let's say the abortion stuff or

161
00:09:13,040 --> 00:09:16,920
Speaker 1: the violence against women's ad we have actual information that

162
00:09:17,080 --> 00:09:20,080
Speaker 1: actually support the things that we need and they're taking

163
00:09:20,120 --> 00:09:23,800
Speaker 1: those away again, pretendingly it doesn't exist, you know what

164
00:09:23,840 --> 00:09:25,320
Speaker 1: I mean, And so we need to go back and

165
00:09:25,320 --> 00:09:29,520
Speaker 1: have another conversation I feel like about what is happening

166
00:09:29,640 --> 00:09:33,000
Speaker 1: and why is still pertinent to this day. Yeah, and

167
00:09:33,040 --> 00:09:35,760
Speaker 1: I think all of us can relate to this, but

168
00:09:36,880 --> 00:09:40,680
Speaker 1: things have changed so much in the past decade that, um,

169
00:09:40,800 --> 00:09:44,520
Speaker 1: when we play on Saturdays, we have the rerun episodes,

170
00:09:44,880 --> 00:09:47,440
Speaker 1: and it's always kind of strange because I'm like, well,

171
00:09:48,040 --> 00:09:53,120
Speaker 1: we really could just come back and right all of that,

172
00:09:53,200 --> 00:09:55,679
Speaker 1: and because we need to also come back and I know,

173
00:09:56,440 --> 00:09:58,880
Speaker 1: UM when Bridget was here and that I'm really glad.

174
00:09:59,280 --> 00:10:01,640
Speaker 1: We need to talk about Black Lives Matter as well

175
00:10:01,679 --> 00:10:05,800
Speaker 1: as UM what all of these new policies and or

176
00:10:05,920 --> 00:10:09,320
Speaker 1: new discrimination type of acts are happening, and how it

177
00:10:09,360 --> 00:10:12,680
Speaker 1: affects people of color. UM talk about the immigration stuff

178
00:10:12,720 --> 00:10:14,559
Speaker 1: once again, and we need to talk about how that

179
00:10:14,679 --> 00:10:18,679
Speaker 1: obviously impacts people of color as well and specific religions.

180
00:10:18,760 --> 00:10:21,320
Speaker 1: And once again we're having to have the same conversation

181
00:10:21,400 --> 00:10:25,160
Speaker 1: which we thought, Hey, you know, it's two thousand nineteen.

182
00:10:25,200 --> 00:10:28,120
Speaker 1: We shouldn't have to come back and pretend like we're

183
00:10:28,160 --> 00:10:31,120
Speaker 1: back in nineteen seventy one. I don't know why I

184
00:10:31,200 --> 00:10:33,960
Speaker 1: use that year, but you know what I mean, that

185
00:10:34,000 --> 00:10:35,839
Speaker 1: was very specific, and then I have to go back

186
00:10:35,840 --> 00:10:43,839
Speaker 1: and look at why it's probably something really obvious to write,

187
00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:47,280
Speaker 1: like obviously you were thinking about this, I wouldn't be like, no,

188
00:10:47,480 --> 00:10:50,920
Speaker 1: that's not me, that's okay, Yes, I absolutely meant that

189
00:10:51,200 --> 00:10:56,240
Speaker 1: always always the credit. UM. So we're going to talk about,

190
00:10:56,559 --> 00:10:59,000
Speaker 1: UM what some of our plans for the future. But

191
00:10:59,080 --> 00:11:01,000
Speaker 1: first we're going to passe for quick break word from

192
00:11:01,000 --> 00:11:12,760
Speaker 1: our sponsor m H and we're back, thank you sponsor.

193
00:11:14,400 --> 00:11:19,040
Speaker 1: So for the future, what what are you passionate to

194
00:11:19,040 --> 00:11:22,480
Speaker 1: talk about? Obviously, as you guys already know, I'm very

195
00:11:22,480 --> 00:11:25,280
Speaker 1: passionate about social justice, especially in the realm of violence

196
00:11:25,320 --> 00:11:28,320
Speaker 1: against women girls, as well as curious about like pop

197
00:11:28,360 --> 00:11:32,080
Speaker 1: culture contents and um, how it influences every day changes.

198
00:11:32,640 --> 00:11:34,839
Speaker 1: I think, Uh, I mean I love a good Game

199
00:11:34,880 --> 00:11:38,040
Speaker 1: of Thrones, mean that that's an everyday pop culture reference

200
00:11:38,160 --> 00:11:42,680
Speaker 1: right now, especially Brand, I mean, shoot, so many things,

201
00:11:43,520 --> 00:11:47,480
Speaker 1: so many things happening with Brand, things with Aria, all

202
00:11:47,480 --> 00:11:50,960
Speaker 1: of the good things. Um, the anger that comes from

203
00:11:51,000 --> 00:11:53,840
Speaker 1: the show in itself when everybody's like, what the hell

204
00:11:54,040 --> 00:11:57,560
Speaker 1: just happened? Which I have many of those moments. Can

205
00:11:57,600 --> 00:12:00,160
Speaker 1: we talk about the fact that I hate shows that

206
00:12:00,280 --> 00:12:05,720
Speaker 1: just kill off all the animals? Why why there's that list? Right? Um?

207
00:12:05,800 --> 00:12:08,320
Speaker 1: You can go when it will tell you like, is

208
00:12:08,320 --> 00:12:11,480
Speaker 1: there a list? Yeah, there's a list online Before you

209
00:12:11,520 --> 00:12:13,160
Speaker 1: go see a movie or watch the show, it'll tell

210
00:12:13,200 --> 00:12:16,199
Speaker 1: you like if you love dogs, maybe not for you,

211
00:12:18,080 --> 00:12:22,120
Speaker 1: but going on to the you know, future episodes. I think, Um,

212
00:12:22,160 --> 00:12:24,080
Speaker 1: I'm really excited about some of the ideas that you

213
00:12:24,080 --> 00:12:27,200
Speaker 1: and I have talked about between like talking about women

214
00:12:27,240 --> 00:12:31,800
Speaker 1: in sexuality. I'm really excited about UM conversations of females

215
00:12:31,800 --> 00:12:35,880
Speaker 1: getting pleasure as well as understanding our sexuality or even

216
00:12:35,920 --> 00:12:38,880
Speaker 1: like questioning our sexuality and what does that look like today,

217
00:12:38,960 --> 00:12:42,280
Speaker 1: especially with like the polyamorous stuff and the pan sexual

218
00:12:42,440 --> 00:12:46,120
Speaker 1: that's the really big topics that are just generalized. So

219
00:12:46,360 --> 00:12:47,960
Speaker 1: I'm really excited about the fact that we're going to

220
00:12:48,000 --> 00:12:51,480
Speaker 1: focus on it as like female perspective. Yeah, you know,

221
00:12:51,559 --> 00:12:55,240
Speaker 1: because I think that's it. Unfortunately for anything, it definitely

222
00:12:55,280 --> 00:12:57,960
Speaker 1: is a different perspective, but definitely a different take and

223
00:12:58,000 --> 00:13:05,680
Speaker 1: not often discussed. Yeah. Yeah, And I've spoken before about UM.

224
00:13:05,720 --> 00:13:08,439
Speaker 1: When I came on this show, I started as an

225
00:13:08,440 --> 00:13:11,760
Speaker 1: intern back when this company was owned by Discovery and

226
00:13:12,120 --> 00:13:14,920
Speaker 1: UM there was kind of a big shake up at

227
00:13:14,920 --> 00:13:17,439
Speaker 1: our office and it was one of those days it's

228
00:13:17,559 --> 00:13:20,719
Speaker 1: like really sad. A lot of people got I don't

229
00:13:20,720 --> 00:13:22,839
Speaker 1: know if they got fired, but like the company changed

230
00:13:22,840 --> 00:13:25,200
Speaker 1: a lot one day, and so it went from like

231
00:13:25,280 --> 00:13:27,280
Speaker 1: this isn't your boss now, this is your boss now,

232
00:13:27,520 --> 00:13:29,400
Speaker 1: and this is your job now. And I went from

233
00:13:29,440 --> 00:13:35,360
Speaker 1: like producing UM a lot of science content to producing

234
00:13:35,360 --> 00:13:38,000
Speaker 1: stuff I never told you because I was the only woman,

235
00:13:38,800 --> 00:13:42,120
Speaker 1: and I'm so glad that I did because it has

236
00:13:42,280 --> 00:13:45,640
Speaker 1: changed my life. By the time I was so mad,

237
00:13:45,679 --> 00:13:49,840
Speaker 1: I was like science and that's still like problematic, yes,

238
00:13:50,320 --> 00:13:54,360
Speaker 1: but um, it's amazing to me that I came onto

239
00:13:54,400 --> 00:13:58,400
Speaker 1: this show and it's like only now am I like, wait,

240
00:13:58,440 --> 00:14:03,320
Speaker 1: what is voice sectional? Now that I'm working, you will

241
00:14:03,320 --> 00:14:05,280
Speaker 1: get to help me work through it on the fine

242
00:14:05,360 --> 00:14:07,720
Speaker 1: And I love people who have written in instead I

243
00:14:07,760 --> 00:14:11,520
Speaker 1: think you might maybe maybe you have been very out

244
00:14:11,559 --> 00:14:13,240
Speaker 1: and be like, oh, let mean when research that, maybe

245
00:14:13,240 --> 00:14:15,439
Speaker 1: that isn't me. But that's the whole big thing. It

246
00:14:15,480 --> 00:14:17,880
Speaker 1: was like at this time, is it really necessary to

247
00:14:17,920 --> 00:14:20,760
Speaker 1: be defined? You know what I mean? That the whole fluidity.

248
00:14:21,160 --> 00:14:23,640
Speaker 1: I love that I do, like I am pretty set

249
00:14:23,720 --> 00:14:26,240
Speaker 1: in who I am in my own habits and that

250
00:14:26,320 --> 00:14:30,520
Speaker 1: might be more tradition indoor habit for me, um, but

251
00:14:30,640 --> 00:14:32,920
Speaker 1: I love that it is. Yeah, this makes more sense.

252
00:14:33,000 --> 00:14:35,640
Speaker 1: Why wouldn't it be this, you know what I mean? Like,

253
00:14:35,680 --> 00:14:38,120
Speaker 1: why is it that we can change everything else but

254
00:14:38,240 --> 00:14:42,920
Speaker 1: preferences don't change. That's not true, right, different right? And

255
00:14:42,960 --> 00:14:46,000
Speaker 1: then individuals like I know that's been said many times.

256
00:14:46,040 --> 00:14:48,240
Speaker 1: I think I've seen celebrities talk about it about how

257
00:14:48,480 --> 00:14:51,320
Speaker 1: they fall in love with a person, not necessarily the

258
00:14:51,400 --> 00:14:55,920
Speaker 1: sexual orientation. Um, and that makes sense. That makes sense,

259
00:14:55,960 --> 00:14:58,200
Speaker 1: and then the ever changing ideas that we finally come

260
00:14:58,240 --> 00:15:02,200
Speaker 1: to the point that people can are coming out and say,

261
00:15:02,240 --> 00:15:04,360
Speaker 1: you know what, I should have been female or I

262
00:15:04,360 --> 00:15:08,040
Speaker 1: should have been male and the whole transgener thing. And

263
00:15:08,120 --> 00:15:11,120
Speaker 1: it makes sense to like when you meet people and

264
00:15:11,160 --> 00:15:14,640
Speaker 1: you're like, oh, yeah, I agree with you, I think

265
00:15:14,680 --> 00:15:16,120
Speaker 1: you should have been for you, well, you know, you

266
00:15:16,200 --> 00:15:18,240
Speaker 1: have those moments because it's like that is who you

267
00:15:18,280 --> 00:15:21,000
Speaker 1: are and that is okay. No one can define that

268
00:15:21,080 --> 00:15:23,960
Speaker 1: for you, but you in the story and it's not

269
00:15:24,080 --> 00:15:27,240
Speaker 1: violating anybody else's right for you to be happy and

270
00:15:27,360 --> 00:15:31,479
Speaker 1: content and live your life as you should in the story.

271
00:15:31,640 --> 00:15:33,920
Speaker 1: But I think that's the whole overall, is that we're

272
00:15:33,920 --> 00:15:37,200
Speaker 1: going to have that moment of researching, in conversations and

273
00:15:37,200 --> 00:15:40,440
Speaker 1: and talking to people. That's the thing you said before

274
00:15:40,800 --> 00:15:44,280
Speaker 1: we get to bring people with those understandings or have

275
00:15:44,360 --> 00:15:47,360
Speaker 1: experienced that. And I'm really excited, Um, you're not talking

276
00:15:47,360 --> 00:15:49,840
Speaker 1: about that. I'm going to meet someone this week who's

277
00:15:49,840 --> 00:15:52,440
Speaker 1: gonna talk to me about some new things that I've

278
00:15:52,480 --> 00:15:55,560
Speaker 1: never heard of or I've never considered. I'm really excited

279
00:15:55,600 --> 00:15:57,960
Speaker 1: to meet and talk with her. Yeah. Yeah, we want

280
00:15:58,000 --> 00:16:04,760
Speaker 1: to continue to you bring in people, UM, from different experiences,

281
00:16:04,800 --> 00:16:07,040
Speaker 1: because there's so many people doing amazing things out there,

282
00:16:07,240 --> 00:16:11,880
Speaker 1: right and it's I think it's good to continue having

283
00:16:11,920 --> 00:16:18,960
Speaker 1: these conversations with just the plethora of experiences. UM. And

284
00:16:19,000 --> 00:16:22,160
Speaker 1: I'm excited for that as well. I'm excited to bring

285
00:16:22,200 --> 00:16:24,600
Speaker 1: in on me. And let's just honestly speak. You are

286
00:16:24,720 --> 00:16:27,000
Speaker 1: a person that you know your Caucasian. Is that what

287
00:16:27,040 --> 00:16:29,360
Speaker 1: I call you? What do I call you? Just that

288
00:16:29,400 --> 00:16:33,320
Speaker 1: white person, that white person, white person over there, um,

289
00:16:33,440 --> 00:16:36,120
Speaker 1: As I am an Asian person and I would never

290
00:16:36,200 --> 00:16:39,080
Speaker 1: claim to know the opinions of a Latina person or

291
00:16:39,080 --> 00:16:41,360
Speaker 1: the opinions of a black woman, like any of people

292
00:16:41,360 --> 00:16:43,840
Speaker 1: who are a person of color or a person of

293
00:16:44,000 --> 00:16:46,960
Speaker 1: different ethnicity or religion. So why would we be the

294
00:16:46,960 --> 00:16:49,120
Speaker 1: ones that just speak about it, you know? And I

295
00:16:49,160 --> 00:16:51,640
Speaker 1: think that's important that we share that we agree with.

296
00:16:51,760 --> 00:16:55,680
Speaker 1: I know there have been criticisms before, UM, we that

297
00:16:55,720 --> 00:16:58,280
Speaker 1: we need to be more inclusive. UM. And when we

298
00:16:58,320 --> 00:17:02,360
Speaker 1: say inclusive and aware that we are not the authority

299
00:17:02,440 --> 00:17:05,840
Speaker 1: of the subject, that we can't understand, we may be

300
00:17:05,880 --> 00:17:07,440
Speaker 1: able to research it, and we may be able to

301
00:17:07,480 --> 00:17:10,720
Speaker 1: empathize and be an ally, but that's completely different than

302
00:17:10,760 --> 00:17:13,840
Speaker 1: being in the shoes of the person going through whatever

303
00:17:13,880 --> 00:17:16,120
Speaker 1: it is at that point in time. So I think

304
00:17:16,160 --> 00:17:18,639
Speaker 1: that's really important that we let y'all know that is

305
00:17:18,680 --> 00:17:23,240
Speaker 1: definitely a direction that we're going forward, UM and absolutely

306
00:17:23,440 --> 00:17:27,120
Speaker 1: once again understanding that we need to be very very

307
00:17:27,160 --> 00:17:31,920
Speaker 1: socially and um consciously aware of what is out here

308
00:17:32,400 --> 00:17:38,200
Speaker 1: and some of the things that are happening with discrimination

309
00:17:38,320 --> 00:17:40,720
Speaker 1: as well as prejudice and as well as any kind

310
00:17:40,720 --> 00:17:44,280
Speaker 1: of racism or um, you know, all of those things,

311
00:17:44,920 --> 00:17:48,639
Speaker 1: and we want to make sure that people are able

312
00:17:48,680 --> 00:17:52,680
Speaker 1: to speak their truths as well as speak um for

313
00:17:52,760 --> 00:17:57,199
Speaker 1: their own experiences. Yes, it's important to say it is.

314
00:17:57,880 --> 00:18:00,959
Speaker 1: It is just keeping And also I go on angentes. Sorry,

315
00:18:01,000 --> 00:18:08,000
Speaker 1: sometimes sometimes the tangent is a good tangent people can relate. Um.

316
00:18:08,040 --> 00:18:10,399
Speaker 1: We have a little bit more for you listeners, but

317
00:18:10,400 --> 00:18:12,080
Speaker 1: first we're gonna pause for one more quick break for

318
00:18:12,119 --> 00:18:24,560
Speaker 1: work from our sponsor m and we're back. Thank you sponsor.

319
00:18:25,359 --> 00:18:27,480
Speaker 1: One thing we did when I talk about just because

320
00:18:28,119 --> 00:18:31,879
Speaker 1: as we're kind of like soft re launching, I guess

321
00:18:32,320 --> 00:18:34,240
Speaker 1: and we're getting a new logo. We are getting a

322
00:18:34,240 --> 00:18:36,920
Speaker 1: new logo. Obviously my picture is going to be on there.

323
00:18:36,960 --> 00:18:39,040
Speaker 1: Now I'm gonna have to see my face all the time.

324
00:18:40,320 --> 00:18:42,639
Speaker 1: It was just her face. I just really wish that

325
00:18:42,680 --> 00:18:44,960
Speaker 1: would be like but I wanted to be like like

326
00:18:45,480 --> 00:18:47,399
Speaker 1: very very close up versions of my face where like

327
00:18:47,400 --> 00:18:49,800
Speaker 1: all used to use my nose on one and then

328
00:18:49,880 --> 00:18:53,280
Speaker 1: I maybe on another one in one tooth somehow. Yeah,

329
00:18:53,280 --> 00:18:57,520
Speaker 1: it changes every week, Like that's sexy it kid, Well,

330
00:18:57,640 --> 00:19:00,280
Speaker 1: is there an obsession with teeth like one tooth? I'm

331
00:19:00,280 --> 00:19:04,720
Speaker 1: sure that a thing someone told me about that. Sure. Um.

332
00:19:04,840 --> 00:19:08,119
Speaker 1: We did want to talk briefly about the name. The

333
00:19:08,800 --> 00:19:14,359
Speaker 1: name stuff I've never told you UM because this show

334
00:19:14,760 --> 00:19:19,400
Speaker 1: UM the past host Kristen and she came up with it. Yes,

335
00:19:19,520 --> 00:19:24,560
Speaker 1: the creator UM at the time, and long time listeners

336
00:19:24,720 --> 00:19:27,080
Speaker 1: and people who listen to other House Stuff Works podcast,

337
00:19:27,119 --> 00:19:28,480
Speaker 1: I know this that you had to have stuff in

338
00:19:28,520 --> 00:19:33,840
Speaker 1: the name UM, and so we we recognize that the

339
00:19:33,960 --> 00:19:37,040
Speaker 1: name and Kristen came to as well. Like the name

340
00:19:37,160 --> 00:19:44,480
Speaker 1: is problematic because at this time not everybody has mom um,

341
00:19:44,560 --> 00:19:47,600
Speaker 1: but it's so entrenched and the difficulty of changing the

342
00:19:47,680 --> 00:19:55,160
Speaker 1: name is um, it's extreme, especially when it's been established

343
00:19:55,200 --> 00:19:57,080
Speaker 1: as Yeah, it's been a long time ago, and like

344
00:19:57,080 --> 00:19:59,760
Speaker 1: I wouldn't know what it was. Yeah, I wouldn't know

345
00:19:59,800 --> 00:20:01,920
Speaker 1: what the show was if it was something else, Right,

346
00:20:02,119 --> 00:20:03,760
Speaker 1: But on top of that, we're all going to kind

347
00:20:03,760 --> 00:20:05,760
Speaker 1: of do we are going to talk about it being

348
00:20:05,800 --> 00:20:08,280
Speaker 1: as an not an acronym but initials. I don't know

349
00:20:08,320 --> 00:20:11,680
Speaker 1: what acronyms meanings and it's not the initials anyway. Back

350
00:20:11,680 --> 00:20:14,360
Speaker 1: to the grammar, all of that is initials that will

351
00:20:14,400 --> 00:20:18,760
Speaker 1: be referring as sminty s m N t y a

352
00:20:18,840 --> 00:20:20,639
Speaker 1: lot more as well, because you know, we're cool and

353
00:20:20,720 --> 00:20:24,520
Speaker 1: hip like that. That's just like what we are is that.

354
00:20:24,600 --> 00:20:28,639
Speaker 1: But that's why we highlighted them. Um, we're trying to yeah,

355
00:20:28,960 --> 00:20:31,919
Speaker 1: because you know, for people who are newer listeners, you

356
00:20:32,000 --> 00:20:35,439
Speaker 1: might not used to hearing that and not definitely going

357
00:20:35,520 --> 00:20:39,080
Speaker 1: to have it in all of our social media and

358
00:20:39,119 --> 00:20:43,000
Speaker 1: emails and stuff. It will say mom within all of

359
00:20:43,040 --> 00:20:46,560
Speaker 1: that sort stuff, and yeah, Um, so we just wanted

360
00:20:46,560 --> 00:20:49,879
Speaker 1: to mention that that's something that we are aware of

361
00:20:50,960 --> 00:20:53,560
Speaker 1: and we do have a couple of recurring segments that

362
00:20:53,640 --> 00:20:57,480
Speaker 1: we are pretty excited about. Um, you did hear from

363
00:20:57,840 --> 00:21:04,000
Speaker 1: one from Eves contributor Eves. Um, and hopefully that'll be

364
00:21:04,080 --> 00:21:07,720
Speaker 1: recurring where she does female first. Yeah, we love Eves

365
00:21:07,720 --> 00:21:10,280
Speaker 1: and she's great. She has a lot of other stuff

366
00:21:10,320 --> 00:21:13,880
Speaker 1: on her plate, so um hopefully, hopefully that will be

367
00:21:14,119 --> 00:21:16,880
Speaker 1: pretty like once a month or something. Um. But something

368
00:21:16,920 --> 00:21:21,720
Speaker 1: else is book club. Book club. Yes, Um, Samantha and

369
00:21:21,760 --> 00:21:24,119
Speaker 1: I have very different tastes if you can't tell, some

370
00:21:24,200 --> 00:21:26,360
Speaker 1: of the same ones, but some very different ones, right,

371
00:21:26,440 --> 00:21:29,760
Speaker 1: so that should be like the fantasies. Oh yeah, but

372
00:21:29,800 --> 00:21:34,520
Speaker 1: I cain sci fi. I love SciFi? Do not? Oh boy, well,

373
00:21:34,920 --> 00:21:39,479
Speaker 1: this will be fun exactly. Well, we're gonna try to, um,

374
00:21:40,320 --> 00:21:43,040
Speaker 1: take a book each and then take you know, a

375
00:21:43,040 --> 00:21:45,880
Speaker 1: month to read it and then discuss it, right, um,

376
00:21:45,880 --> 00:21:48,560
Speaker 1: And you and I have some really exciting things that

377
00:21:48,600 --> 00:21:50,280
Speaker 1: are coming out. I think you and I've been talking

378
00:21:50,280 --> 00:21:54,560
Speaker 1: about our first book club book. Um, and it's a

379
00:21:54,600 --> 00:22:00,199
Speaker 1: little more definitely not necessarily sci fi or fiction, but

380
00:22:00,320 --> 00:22:02,639
Speaker 1: it is going to be really exciting because hopefully we

381
00:22:02,640 --> 00:22:04,639
Speaker 1: can get the authors on here as well and we

382
00:22:04,640 --> 00:22:06,960
Speaker 1: can have a full discussion. And you guys already loved

383
00:22:06,960 --> 00:22:10,640
Speaker 1: the authors, so it'll be fantastic. I love this. I'm

384
00:22:10,640 --> 00:22:14,720
Speaker 1: teasy I'm so good at it, UM, but we would

385
00:22:14,720 --> 00:22:21,240
Speaker 1: love for listeners to submit UM some suggestions as well. Yeah.

386
00:22:21,640 --> 00:22:24,320
Speaker 1: I think we wanted to talk about also publishing lists

387
00:22:24,640 --> 00:22:27,200
Speaker 1: of our favorite books as well, especially in regards to

388
00:22:27,240 --> 00:22:31,280
Speaker 1: like female authors or feminist subjects UM, because we definitely

389
00:22:31,280 --> 00:22:33,760
Speaker 1: gotten a couple of requests for that, uh, And we

390
00:22:33,800 --> 00:22:36,960
Speaker 1: want to make sure we keep updated UM information up

391
00:22:37,000 --> 00:22:40,960
Speaker 1: there as well as really helpful books that can help

392
00:22:41,000 --> 00:22:44,120
Speaker 1: you out and whatever you're researching and or what you're

393
00:22:44,560 --> 00:22:47,840
Speaker 1: trying to figure out about yourself or encourage yourself, you know,

394
00:22:47,840 --> 00:22:51,960
Speaker 1: all of those things. Yeah. Yeah, I'm very excited about that.

395
00:22:52,000 --> 00:22:53,520
Speaker 1: And a lot of you have written and I know

396
00:22:53,560 --> 00:22:58,000
Speaker 1: a lot of you are voracious readers, UM, so feel

397
00:22:58,040 --> 00:23:01,480
Speaker 1: free to keep those suggestions coming. UM. And another thing,

398
00:23:01,880 --> 00:23:03,840
Speaker 1: I've been trying to start this for years. You have

399
00:23:04,480 --> 00:23:10,240
Speaker 1: uh feminist movie Friday. Yeah, that should probably be UM

400
00:23:10,400 --> 00:23:12,560
Speaker 1: once a month as well, or maybe a show. It

401
00:23:12,600 --> 00:23:14,359
Speaker 1: doesn't have to be a movie, but yeah, we picked

402
00:23:14,359 --> 00:23:18,520
Speaker 1: something and go into it. UM. I kind of wanted

403
00:23:18,560 --> 00:23:20,760
Speaker 1: us to have like a live recording about reactions to

404
00:23:20,800 --> 00:23:26,199
Speaker 1: these movies too, but that's just as science silence and

405
00:23:26,200 --> 00:23:29,360
Speaker 1: then occasional cursing and gasping no, I'll probably make some

406
00:23:29,480 --> 00:23:31,920
Speaker 1: kind of reference like what the and then a lot

407
00:23:31,960 --> 00:23:34,800
Speaker 1: of bleeping yeah, because that's probably gonna be me. I

408
00:23:34,840 --> 00:23:37,000
Speaker 1: would love like producer Andrew to be a part of

409
00:23:37,000 --> 00:23:40,520
Speaker 1: our movie times as well, because we know he has

410
00:23:40,520 --> 00:23:42,199
Speaker 1: missed out on a lot of the good stuff that

411
00:23:42,200 --> 00:23:44,480
Speaker 1: you and I've talked about. But then we turned out

412
00:23:44,520 --> 00:23:46,119
Speaker 1: you have missed out on a lot of good stuff

413
00:23:46,160 --> 00:23:48,640
Speaker 1: that Andrew, Producer Andrew and I have talked about talking

414
00:23:48,640 --> 00:23:52,000
Speaker 1: about Batman, I'm talking about so many movies between Batman,

415
00:23:52,520 --> 00:23:57,840
Speaker 1: we talked about Short Circuit, We talked about so many things.

416
00:23:58,000 --> 00:24:01,399
Speaker 1: There's not finist take except Alie. She is wonderful. How

417
00:24:01,400 --> 00:24:05,800
Speaker 1: about that she was the perfect a girl, but not

418
00:24:05,880 --> 00:24:09,240
Speaker 1: a girl, you know what I'm saying. Think about that

419
00:24:09,280 --> 00:24:11,600
Speaker 1: the eighties and nineties had the girls that were cute,

420
00:24:11,600 --> 00:24:15,520
Speaker 1: but not necessarily this beautiful standard that has happened recently.

421
00:24:16,280 --> 00:24:19,159
Speaker 1: Ali she I love her, but she is like a

422
00:24:19,240 --> 00:24:22,439
Speaker 1: cute adorable But this is also the precursor of like

423
00:24:22,480 --> 00:24:25,639
Speaker 1: the pixie manic stuff, because I think I don't know

424
00:24:25,640 --> 00:24:28,639
Speaker 1: if how Molly Ringwalt would have been. She's not pixie manic,

425
00:24:28,840 --> 00:24:32,280
Speaker 1: but she was kind of the beginning. I would say,

426
00:24:32,400 --> 00:24:36,119
Speaker 1: maybe people will debate that with me. Let's have a debate, y'all. Um,

427
00:24:36,160 --> 00:24:37,680
Speaker 1: But I mean stuff like that. I think it's a

428
00:24:37,920 --> 00:24:40,119
Speaker 1: it's a good thing. But I won't make you watch

429
00:24:40,240 --> 00:24:43,440
Speaker 1: a short circuit that won't be one of us. It's no,

430
00:24:43,680 --> 00:24:45,359
Speaker 1: that isn't gonna be mean you. I'm gonna make you

431
00:24:45,359 --> 00:24:49,000
Speaker 1: watch it with just me, right right. But I'm just saying,

432
00:24:49,160 --> 00:24:52,040
Speaker 1: the tastes are so different. I feel like having Andrew

433
00:24:52,080 --> 00:24:53,680
Speaker 1: being a part of that, it will be just as fun.

434
00:24:54,320 --> 00:24:56,200
Speaker 1: They can watch Sex of the City or something. Oh

435
00:24:56,240 --> 00:25:06,000
Speaker 1: my goodness, he's already wincing. I see it. Its presignation. Um. Yeah,

436
00:25:06,040 --> 00:25:12,280
Speaker 1: that's that's something that um I hate for. I had

437
00:25:12,280 --> 00:25:14,000
Speaker 1: to come up with this, like a year long plan

438
00:25:14,080 --> 00:25:18,680
Speaker 1: of what I thought. Yeah, and I had every month

439
00:25:18,680 --> 00:25:20,080
Speaker 1: I picked out a movie, and of course they were

440
00:25:20,080 --> 00:25:21,960
Speaker 1: all horror movies. I'll probably have to change that. That's

441
00:25:21,960 --> 00:25:24,359
Speaker 1: not everyone's thing, right, I love horror movies. You would

442
00:25:24,359 --> 00:25:26,840
Speaker 1: have bonded over this. Although one of the suggestions that

443
00:25:26,920 --> 00:25:30,520
Speaker 1: you gave me was awful. It wasn't just me who

444
00:25:30,560 --> 00:25:32,320
Speaker 1: gave you that it was. It wasn't just you, but

445
00:25:32,320 --> 00:25:34,040
Speaker 1: the two you brought it up as being one of

446
00:25:34,080 --> 00:25:37,800
Speaker 1: your favorites or one of the most shocking, both shocking.

447
00:25:38,119 --> 00:25:41,720
Speaker 1: I stand by telling you what. It was awful and

448
00:25:41,760 --> 00:25:43,880
Speaker 1: I was so angry when I was watching the entire thing.

449
00:25:44,560 --> 00:25:49,760
Speaker 1: Well I can't when all the time, but yeah, I'm

450
00:25:49,760 --> 00:25:52,879
Speaker 1: haunted for sure. I'm haunted forever. And it kind of

451
00:25:52,920 --> 00:25:56,560
Speaker 1: does play that whole like crazy girl, you know what

452
00:25:56,600 --> 00:25:59,840
Speaker 1: I mean, because she was like, for y'all, who who

453
00:26:00,440 --> 00:26:03,919
Speaker 1: or maybe like what it's called the audition and it's Japanese,

454
00:26:04,000 --> 00:26:06,720
Speaker 1: right of course, I'm telling you what. Those Japanese horror

455
00:26:06,760 --> 00:26:09,800
Speaker 1: films really get you? Yeah, get you good? But it

456
00:26:10,000 --> 00:26:15,639
Speaker 1: was what Russian horror movies. They're pretty Russian. I have

457
00:26:15,720 --> 00:26:19,800
Speaker 1: some suggestions for you anyway. This is something else we

458
00:26:19,800 --> 00:26:21,840
Speaker 1: would love for people to write in UM. I do

459
00:26:23,520 --> 00:26:28,240
Speaker 1: have very specific taste. UM have been criticized for work before,

460
00:26:28,560 --> 00:26:31,399
Speaker 1: but I like, I don't have an experience with rom coms.

461
00:26:31,400 --> 00:26:35,720
Speaker 1: I don't those eighties movies. I've seen rom coms. So

462
00:26:35,760 --> 00:26:38,879
Speaker 1: I got you. Yeah, so I am cheesy? Well yeah,

463
00:26:39,080 --> 00:26:41,600
Speaker 1: I can't get cheesy. We wanted to make sure all

464
00:26:41,640 --> 00:26:44,440
Speaker 1: the interest represented, but we also want to pick ones

465
00:26:44,520 --> 00:26:49,680
Speaker 1: that we can talk about the the feminists through a

466
00:26:49,760 --> 00:26:52,919
Speaker 1: feminist lens, Like what do mean what is this communicate? Um,

467
00:26:53,960 --> 00:26:58,000
Speaker 1: so definitely won't all be negative. No, And I I've

468
00:26:58,040 --> 00:27:02,159
Speaker 1: said before on here like I'm someone I feel like

469
00:27:02,200 --> 00:27:05,480
Speaker 1: you can appreciate something and recognize the the poor the

470
00:27:05,520 --> 00:27:09,440
Speaker 1: messages that's sending that are not great. I mean I'm excited,

471
00:27:09,520 --> 00:27:12,919
Speaker 1: Like I know, Um, we should definitely watch like Tarantino

472
00:27:13,000 --> 00:27:18,320
Speaker 1: movies because I've got some fierce, fierce email characters. There's

473
00:27:18,359 --> 00:27:22,720
Speaker 1: a lot UH have to figure out about the reading

474
00:27:22,760 --> 00:27:27,080
Speaker 1: of the movie. Oh yeah, anyway, we would love for

475
00:27:27,080 --> 00:27:31,119
Speaker 1: for you listeners to help us shape shape this. Yeah,

476
00:27:31,640 --> 00:27:34,919
Speaker 1: I'm all about suggestions, um, because half the things that

477
00:27:34,960 --> 00:27:37,040
Speaker 1: we may be talking about we don't or but we

478
00:27:37,080 --> 00:27:38,600
Speaker 1: would like to talk about we don't know as a

479
00:27:38,640 --> 00:27:41,160
Speaker 1: subject for me, some of those things, I'm like, oh, yeah,

480
00:27:41,359 --> 00:27:44,919
Speaker 1: we should definitely have a conversation about this because it

481
00:27:44,920 --> 00:27:48,040
Speaker 1: doesn't necessarily you know, we have two perspectives, and we

482
00:27:48,080 --> 00:27:51,879
Speaker 1: know there's multi multi, multi multi perspectives that we're not hitting.

483
00:27:52,600 --> 00:27:54,320
Speaker 1: So I would love to hear more and more on

484
00:27:54,440 --> 00:27:56,720
Speaker 1: I know we talked about there was a listener who

485
00:27:56,720 --> 00:27:59,120
Speaker 1: wanted to talk about, Um, what it is to be

486
00:28:00,080 --> 00:28:03,800
Speaker 1: in between or normal size. I guess where you're not skinny,

487
00:28:03,840 --> 00:28:07,720
Speaker 1: but neither are you thick and big boned, UM or

488
00:28:07,720 --> 00:28:10,320
Speaker 1: plus size and what does that mean in a society

489
00:28:10,359 --> 00:28:13,560
Speaker 1: that recognizes I, you know, one or the other. And

490
00:28:13,600 --> 00:28:15,919
Speaker 1: we wanted to talk about that. UM. With that, what

491
00:28:15,960 --> 00:28:19,639
Speaker 1: we talked about what does healthy look like? UM, we

492
00:28:19,640 --> 00:28:22,520
Speaker 1: talked about sexuality. I'm really excited about that one. I

493
00:28:22,600 --> 00:28:25,800
Speaker 1: do want to talk about policies that are happening, UM

494
00:28:25,840 --> 00:28:29,040
Speaker 1: in Georgia. Today is a pretty significant day, UM, with

495
00:28:29,160 --> 00:28:35,600
Speaker 1: our governor possibly signing into the heartbeat abortion law and

496
00:28:35,800 --> 00:28:40,000
Speaker 1: was passed unfortunately. UM. I mean that's just my opinion. UM.

497
00:28:40,040 --> 00:28:42,120
Speaker 1: Stuff like that we definitely want to talk to. And

498
00:28:43,320 --> 00:28:45,800
Speaker 1: we talked about the fact that our last maybe series

499
00:28:45,880 --> 00:28:50,239
Speaker 1: were was very very intense, and UM, we understand that

500
00:28:50,320 --> 00:28:52,200
Speaker 1: for a lot of people that are like, why are

501
00:28:52,240 --> 00:28:54,360
Speaker 1: you getting so into this? You're talking about mental health

502
00:28:54,360 --> 00:29:00,440
Speaker 1: a lot, You're talking about trauma a lot. I don't

503
00:29:00,440 --> 00:29:02,560
Speaker 1: really know. I'm not bought me around about this topic.

504
00:29:03,200 --> 00:29:06,240
Speaker 1: I mean, and I think that's that's understandable. Once again,

505
00:29:06,280 --> 00:29:08,160
Speaker 1: we got called the lost girls in the minds of

506
00:29:08,200 --> 00:29:12,120
Speaker 1: the loss and you know, that's also understandable. Um. And

507
00:29:12,280 --> 00:29:15,000
Speaker 1: we want to bring in as many interesting and if

508
00:29:15,040 --> 00:29:17,400
Speaker 1: we can find even more lighthearted. But some of our

509
00:29:17,400 --> 00:29:19,440
Speaker 1: stuff is going to be intense. That's kind of who

510
00:29:19,520 --> 00:29:22,000
Speaker 1: I am, just to go ahead throw it out there.

511
00:29:22,440 --> 00:29:26,760
Speaker 1: I've always been, um called intense. I'm a libra. I'm

512
00:29:26,800 --> 00:29:30,760
Speaker 1: all about justice. I'm all about justice and balance. It's

513
00:29:30,760 --> 00:29:33,600
Speaker 1: actually very true to me. Yeah, I like the balance.

514
00:29:33,640 --> 00:29:36,120
Speaker 1: I like equality. I am all about fairness. Like it

515
00:29:36,200 --> 00:29:41,840
Speaker 1: really upset, yes, if something is not fair. So I'm like,

516
00:29:41,960 --> 00:29:44,080
Speaker 1: that doesn't make sense and it doesn't make sense to

517
00:29:44,080 --> 00:29:47,040
Speaker 1: me if I can't like balance it out. So that's

518
00:29:47,080 --> 00:29:49,560
Speaker 1: kind of who I am. And I think, Um, Like

519
00:29:49,600 --> 00:29:52,080
Speaker 1: I said, the next few episodes, we're hoping to keep

520
00:29:52,120 --> 00:29:56,160
Speaker 1: it um a little more neutral because when it comes

521
00:29:56,200 --> 00:30:00,160
Speaker 1: to feminism, how do you not get passionate? Yeah, you

522
00:30:00,160 --> 00:30:02,880
Speaker 1: know what I mean. So it's not gonna be Yeah,

523
00:30:03,080 --> 00:30:06,640
Speaker 1: and I think like listeners understand and want to hear.

524
00:30:06,760 --> 00:30:08,880
Speaker 1: We can't shy away from something just because it's difficult

525
00:30:08,920 --> 00:30:14,280
Speaker 1: to write, and that's not who I am either. No, um,

526
00:30:14,320 --> 00:30:18,560
Speaker 1: but there there's so much to talk about out there, um,

527
00:30:18,600 --> 00:30:21,760
Speaker 1: and I think like having a book club and a

528
00:30:21,760 --> 00:30:25,000
Speaker 1: movie club. These will be kind of maybe not always,

529
00:30:25,000 --> 00:30:27,920
Speaker 1: but like lighter things because we do need those breaks,

530
00:30:27,920 --> 00:30:29,800
Speaker 1: like we need them to you. And yeah, and that's

531
00:30:29,800 --> 00:30:32,640
Speaker 1: why I'm really excited about some of the interviews that

532
00:30:32,680 --> 00:30:34,480
Speaker 1: we're going to have and some of the conversations we're

533
00:30:34,480 --> 00:30:37,080
Speaker 1: going to have and just questions, like it's okay to

534
00:30:37,120 --> 00:30:41,680
Speaker 1: have questions and it's not all ridiculously serious, but we

535
00:30:41,800 --> 00:30:44,840
Speaker 1: definitely have a lot to talk about and when it

536
00:30:44,840 --> 00:30:48,440
Speaker 1: comes to feminism, we should be standing strong and having

537
00:30:48,480 --> 00:30:52,800
Speaker 1: a very very strong opinion. Yeah, that's what I think. Yeah,

538
00:30:52,960 --> 00:30:57,080
Speaker 1: And I am so glad to have you here. Um,

539
00:30:57,320 --> 00:31:02,560
Speaker 1: going changes like that, yeah, Um. And I know this

540
00:31:02,640 --> 00:31:08,800
Speaker 1: episode wasn't our patented research was not in here, um,

541
00:31:08,840 --> 00:31:11,360
Speaker 1: but we just wanted to kind of level set before

542
00:31:11,440 --> 00:31:15,160
