Speaker 1: On the Doll Cast. The questions asked if movies have
Speaker 1: women and um are all their discussions just boyfriends and
Speaker 1: husbands or do they have individualism the patriarchy? Zef In
Speaker 1: best start changing it with the Bell Cast. Hi, everybody,
Speaker 1: Jamie here and me too. It's Caitlin incredible. Well off
Speaker 1: to an amazing start as always. So this week listeners
Speaker 1: were doing something a little different. It's a cross promotional.
Speaker 1: I don't even know if that counts. If it's like
Speaker 1: one of the hosts like, you can't cross over with yourself,
Speaker 1: I will, I think you can. That sounds forty now, Yeah,
Speaker 1: I crossed over with myself last night. I crossed over
Speaker 1: with myself three times this morning. Okay, fine, we're crossing
Speaker 1: over with ourselves. So this week, instead of a normally
Speaker 1: scheduled episode, we're gonna be releasing a cross episode from
Speaker 1: my new researched series called act Cast. We talked about
Speaker 1: it a little bit before our nine to five episode
Speaker 1: a couple of weeks ago, but yeah, we're we're releasing
Speaker 1: one of those episodes into the bettel cast feed this week.
Speaker 1: If you haven't tried the show out, I mean we couldn't.
Speaker 1: Uh and then we'll be back with our with your
Speaker 1: regularly scheduled programming next week. But I've chose this episode
Speaker 1: to release into the feed. This is the third in
Speaker 1: this series, which might seem kind of random, but there's
Speaker 1: reasoning behind it that hopefully makes sense. Which is that
Speaker 1: So the show is is me using the Kathy comics
Speaker 1: that came out between to kind of just trace elements
Speaker 1: of the Boomer generation that are very frustrating or very
Speaker 1: complicated or very just It's a lot and this is
Speaker 1: this is the episode that is about just kind of
Speaker 1: a brief history of American feminism and how it's It's
Speaker 1: stuff that we talked about on the show a lot,
Speaker 1: but but I learned a lot doing it. It's just
Speaker 1: about how, you know, feminism in the US almost always
Speaker 1: hugely lacks intersectionality. I learned a ton about how, um
Speaker 1: some of this I knew, but like how some of
Speaker 1: the um, you know, most prominent white feminist leaders of
Speaker 1: our time were deeply openly racist, topically openly homophobic, and
Speaker 1: so uh there, and then there's also Cathey comics, so
Speaker 1: there's celebrity. But it's mostly about the first and second
Speaker 1: waves of feminism in the US. And where their successes
Speaker 1: were and where they're huge glaring failures were. And yeah,
Speaker 1: I feel like if you're a fan of the Bechtel Cast,
Speaker 1: it's kind of relevant info because stuff that we've alluded
Speaker 1: to on the show quite a bit. But I don't know,
Speaker 1: the more I learned, the more I'm just like, damn
Speaker 1: it truly has always been this way? How how frustrating? Yeah, well,
Speaker 1: I appreciate you doing at cast and doing that deep
Speaker 1: dive and providing all that context. It's a really great episode.
Speaker 1: I think everyone. I think all of our listeners have
Speaker 1: if you haven't heard it already, which I bet you
Speaker 1: know a fair number have. But if you haven't, check
Speaker 1: it out and then go back, start from the beginning,
Speaker 1: listen to the whole thing. The world is your oyster.
Speaker 1: I'm going to and now I'm going to vendmo you
Speaker 1: the fifty dollars I promised to vendmo you for saying
Speaker 1: all of that. Yeah, yeah, yeah, thank you. I really
Speaker 1: appreciate it. Uh yeah, it was a super fun show
Speaker 1: to put together, and I hope you enjoy it. Caitlin
