1
00:00:03,720 --> 00:00:11,040
Speaker 1: Hi, everyone. Jamie loftus here of ac Cast and whatever

2
00:00:11,119 --> 00:00:13,840
Speaker 1: else at Cast is taking the week off because we

3
00:00:13,880 --> 00:00:16,920
Speaker 1: are at our halfway point in the series. So now

4
00:00:16,920 --> 00:00:19,720
Speaker 1: that you've got the context for who Kathy guys White is,

5
00:00:19,960 --> 00:00:23,640
Speaker 1: who her contemporaries were, and the fact that the content

6
00:00:23,720 --> 00:00:27,000
Speaker 1: of the comic itself was serving far more satire and

7
00:00:27,120 --> 00:00:30,440
Speaker 1: commentary on boomer women than anyone ever gave it credit for.

8
00:00:31,000 --> 00:00:34,360
Speaker 1: In the second half of this series, which begins next week,

9
00:00:34,680 --> 00:00:37,400
Speaker 1: we'll see how Kathy's strips nailed the culture that they

10
00:00:37,400 --> 00:00:40,600
Speaker 1: became so popular, and we'll be talking about her insights

11
00:00:40,640 --> 00:00:43,440
Speaker 1: on the boomer generation at large. We'll talk about how

12
00:00:43,479 --> 00:00:47,879
Speaker 1: the character both condemned and profited from diet culture, and

13
00:00:47,920 --> 00:00:50,240
Speaker 1: we'll take a look at how Kathy Guys White's work

14
00:00:50,320 --> 00:00:53,280
Speaker 1: and legacy continues to have an impact with women and

15
00:00:53,320 --> 00:00:57,120
Speaker 1: non binary comic creators today. But this week, I want

16
00:00:57,160 --> 00:01:00,720
Speaker 1: to make a request to you. Now, maybe you are

17
00:01:00,880 --> 00:01:04,040
Speaker 1: someone from the boomer generation listening to this podcast, and

18
00:01:04,080 --> 00:01:06,880
Speaker 1: that's amazing. Please tell your friends. But if you're like

19
00:01:06,959 --> 00:01:09,959
Speaker 1: me and you have boomer parents, I'm asking you to

20
00:01:10,040 --> 00:01:14,280
Speaker 1: take the challenge and tell your boomers about this show.

21
00:01:14,400 --> 00:01:16,760
Speaker 1: I'm very grateful to everyone who's been listening, and I

22
00:01:16,760 --> 00:01:19,840
Speaker 1: would love to get more people from the Kathy Strips

23
00:01:19,840 --> 00:01:23,520
Speaker 1: original audience to listen to the show, because here's the thing,

24
00:01:23,959 --> 00:01:27,840
Speaker 1: a lot of them don't know how to access podcasts.

25
00:01:28,319 --> 00:01:30,440
Speaker 1: Some of them don't know what podcasts are. I've been

26
00:01:30,440 --> 00:01:32,360
Speaker 1: doing this job for almost five years and my mom

27
00:01:32,360 --> 00:01:35,080
Speaker 1: cracked it like last year. So the show will be

28
00:01:35,120 --> 00:01:38,480
Speaker 1: back with new episodes next week. But this week I

29
00:01:38,520 --> 00:01:42,520
Speaker 1: wanted to give you a helpful, incredible song that I

30
00:01:42,600 --> 00:01:45,360
Speaker 1: wrote that clearly I took a lot of time and

31
00:01:45,440 --> 00:01:49,160
Speaker 1: care in that includes instructions on how to show your

32
00:01:49,160 --> 00:01:51,520
Speaker 1: mom what a podcast is. I'm going to win a

33
00:01:51,600 --> 00:01:57,200
Speaker 1: Grammy for this, so enjoy. Hey, my name is Jamie.

34
00:01:57,320 --> 00:02:00,360
Speaker 1: I'm making a podcast about the Kathy comics. Let's call

35
00:02:00,440 --> 00:02:03,480
Speaker 1: that cast, and I want your mom to hear it.

36
00:02:04,480 --> 00:02:08,120
Speaker 1: Here's what you should do. My mom was afraid of

37
00:02:08,160 --> 00:02:11,639
Speaker 1: the concept of a podcast. What is it you get

38
00:02:11,639 --> 00:02:16,080
Speaker 1: my computer virus? No, Mom, it's radio on demand from

39
00:02:16,160 --> 00:02:20,840
Speaker 1: an unqualified person nobody's heard of. I can't get podcasts.

40
00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:24,200
Speaker 1: I have an Android. It's true, my mom has a

41
00:02:24,240 --> 00:02:28,040
Speaker 1: five foot tall Android phone. It talked to me when

42
00:02:28,080 --> 00:02:30,360
Speaker 1: I was a child. But I sent to the link

43
00:02:30,440 --> 00:02:34,600
Speaker 1: to my podcast, and she clicked it, open up right there,

44
00:02:34,600 --> 00:02:38,880
Speaker 1: and then she listened to my Little Hotio five And

45
00:02:39,040 --> 00:02:42,760
Speaker 1: my mom never looked back again. It's not hard for

46
00:02:42,880 --> 00:02:46,560
Speaker 1: your mom to listen to a podcast. And she could

47
00:02:46,680 --> 00:02:52,840
Speaker 1: listen to the podcast. Just click at link. Fuck right, sorry,

48
00:02:54,760 --> 00:02:58,440

00:02:58,440 --> 00:03:01,920

52
00:03:09,320 --> 00:03:12,679
Speaker 1: Why not just listen to a podcast, and there's a

53
00:03:12,760 --> 00:03:15,040
Speaker 1: time and explaining it once you're gonna want to give up.

54
00:03:15,240 --> 00:03:17,359
Speaker 1: She'll say, oh, I'm no good with this stuff. I

55
00:03:17,480 --> 00:03:21,519
Speaker 1: have your brother show me. You'll say, Mom, that's pretty sexist,

56
00:03:21,720 --> 00:03:27,600
Speaker 1: because don't you know OPRA as a podcast. Julianna Margaret

57
00:03:27,720 --> 00:03:31,040

Speaker 1: She has a podcast. Alec Balswan has a podcast, but

62
00:03:42,040 --> 00:03:44,480

Speaker 1: your mom liked in her twenties have podcasts now, but

64
00:03:47,040 --> 00:03:49,680
Speaker 1: many of them are fascists, so you have to be careful.

65
00:03:49,840 --> 00:03:56,440
Speaker 1: Be very careful. Do not listen to Bed Shapiro on
