3
00:00:09,760 --> 00:00:13,000
Speaker 1: important it is to amplify women's voices in this space.

4
00:00:13,480 --> 00:00:16,280
Speaker 1: That is why I am so excited to be talking

5
00:00:16,320 --> 00:00:18,840

Speaker 1: My Heart. I am so excited to talk about this

14
00:00:47,560 --> 00:00:51,159
Speaker 1: podcast we're discussing today. First of all, Carrie, will you

15
00:00:51,200 --> 00:00:54,120
Speaker 1: introduce yourself and tell me about this show that you're

16
00:00:54,120 --> 00:00:58,200
Speaker 1: working on. Absolutely. My name is Carrie Carpenter. I am

17
00:00:58,240 --> 00:01:02,320
Speaker 1: a romance author, and my name is Jenny Mitchell. We

18
00:01:02,360 --> 00:01:05,720
Speaker 1: are doing the Hallmark Junkies. We're gonna be reviewing all

19
00:01:05,800 --> 00:01:09,760
Speaker 1: things Hallmark, going through the movies, talking about what we like,

20
00:01:09,920 --> 00:01:12,840
Speaker 1: what we don't like. We're gonna get some Romance, one

21
00:01:12,840 --> 00:01:16,040
Speaker 1: oh one, insights from Carrie from her history as an author,

22
00:01:16,400 --> 00:01:18,200
Speaker 1: and then we're just gonna have a little free for all.

23
00:01:18,280 --> 00:01:20,840
Speaker 1: We're gonna talk about all things in this movie, the

24
00:01:20,880 --> 00:01:24,039
Speaker 1: most ridiculous, the best, anything you can talk about, you

25
00:01:24,080 --> 00:01:27,280
Speaker 1: can think about. We're gonna go over Carrie. You have

26
00:01:27,400 --> 00:01:31,080
Speaker 1: been writing Romance for a while. What made you think

27
00:01:31,160 --> 00:01:34,520
Speaker 1: that you and Jenny should have a podcast together where

28
00:01:34,520 --> 00:01:38,119
Speaker 1: you rehash everything that goes on in Hallmark movies? Well,

29
00:01:38,440 --> 00:01:41,800
Speaker 1: that is a great question. Ever since Jenny and I met,

30
00:01:42,240 --> 00:01:45,560
Speaker 1: we will talk about how we loved these Hallmark movies,

31
00:01:45,640 --> 00:01:49,360
Speaker 1: which you know, now there's about forty a year just

32
00:01:49,520 --> 00:01:53,160
Speaker 1: during Christmas time alone, but back in the day there

33
00:01:53,240 --> 00:01:56,680
Speaker 1: was like maybe one year and not that many people

34
00:01:56,680 --> 00:01:59,400
Speaker 1: watched it. But Jenny and I before we ever met,

35
00:01:59,480 --> 00:02:02,920
Speaker 1: we both watched them. So as we became friends and

36
00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:06,720
Speaker 1: our friendship developed, we also just kept watching these movies

37
00:02:06,720 --> 00:02:09,680
Speaker 1: together and I just thought that they were so much fun,

38
00:02:09,880 --> 00:02:13,639
Speaker 1: and our friends started joining us, and besides watching the movies,

39
00:02:13,680 --> 00:02:16,720
Speaker 1: we started playing homework channel bingo and just have our

40
00:02:16,760 --> 00:02:20,000
Speaker 1: homework viewing parties, and of course text each other NonStop

41
00:02:20,080 --> 00:02:23,519
Speaker 1: when we're not together about these movies, so this seemed

42
00:02:23,520 --> 00:02:26,640
Speaker 1: like a natural fit for us. Jenny, you and Carrie

43
00:02:26,760 --> 00:02:29,880
Speaker 1: were selected to be part of this Seneca Women to

44
00:02:29,960 --> 00:02:33,840
Speaker 1: Hear program from among a massive group of applicants. What

45
00:02:33,919 --> 00:02:35,400
Speaker 1: did it feel like when you found out you were

46
00:02:35,400 --> 00:02:38,080
Speaker 1: going to get to be part of this? Honestly, it

47
00:02:38,160 --> 00:02:44,400
Speaker 1: was so surreal and I really thought, maybe until middle

48
00:02:44,480 --> 00:02:48,240
Speaker 1: week last week, that we were being duped. But no,

49
00:02:48,440 --> 00:02:51,239
Speaker 1: there's no we could not have won this. I mean,

50
00:02:51,680 --> 00:02:53,920
Speaker 1: I entwered it and I thought it was a good idea,

51
00:02:54,040 --> 00:02:57,280
Speaker 1: but Carrie was like, you know, here's an angle. I'm

52
00:02:57,280 --> 00:03:00,440
Speaker 1: an author, but I just was never expected doing anything.

53
00:03:00,480 --> 00:03:03,079
Speaker 1: And then I get the female and Carrie. I text

54
00:03:03,120 --> 00:03:06,919
Speaker 1: Carrie and I'm like, um, we should talk. I think

55
00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:10,120
Speaker 1: we won. And we're both so excited, and I mean,

56
00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:13,320
Speaker 1: it's just such a great opportunity and and you know,

57
00:03:13,440 --> 00:03:16,160
Speaker 1: we just can't think I heard Radio and Seneca Women

58
00:03:16,320 --> 00:03:20,360
Speaker 1: enough and we're just we're just over the moon about it. Carrie,

59
00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:23,760
Speaker 1: I am wondering because you are about to embark on

60
00:03:24,280 --> 00:03:27,200
Speaker 1: this sort of multi week boot camp where you're learning

61
00:03:27,200 --> 00:03:30,280
Speaker 1: all about podcasting, how to put your podcast together, and

62
00:03:30,320 --> 00:03:32,639
Speaker 1: then getting that out into the world. So what are

63
00:03:32,720 --> 00:03:36,080
Speaker 1: you most looking forward to in that learning experience, and

64
00:03:36,160 --> 00:03:39,160
Speaker 1: what are you most hoping for? I am looking forward

65
00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:42,160
Speaker 1: to just learning as much as I can. I love

66
00:03:42,280 --> 00:03:46,360
Speaker 1: learning new things. Um So, I've always wanted to kind

67
00:03:46,360 --> 00:03:49,240
Speaker 1: of a venture into the podcast world, but to be honest,

68
00:03:49,280 --> 00:03:53,760
Speaker 1: I just had no idea where to start. And you know,

69
00:03:53,920 --> 00:03:56,440
Speaker 1: you can google how to start a podcast, but it's

70
00:03:56,440 --> 00:04:00,600
Speaker 1: pretty overwhelming. So this opportunity has just been amazing that

71
00:04:00,640 --> 00:04:05,160
Speaker 1: I'm actually from like really cool people going to learn

72
00:04:05,720 --> 00:04:08,320
Speaker 1: what to do and how to podcast. And I'm most

73
00:04:08,360 --> 00:04:11,880
Speaker 1: looking forward to doing this with my best friend Jenny

74
00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:14,240
Speaker 1: and getting to hang out. Jenny and I used to

75
00:04:14,280 --> 00:04:17,920
Speaker 1: be neighbors until last year, and even though I only

76
00:04:17,960 --> 00:04:21,719
Speaker 1: moved probably twenty miles away, if anyone knows the DC

77
00:04:21,920 --> 00:04:24,679
Speaker 1: area traffic, it might as well be on you know, Mars,

78
00:04:25,320 --> 00:04:28,360
Speaker 1: and I just miss seeing her every day and now

79
00:04:28,480 --> 00:04:32,359
Speaker 1: she has to come out to me and it's spend
