Explicit content warning
01/05/23 • 59 min
Rachel and Kirsten talk to Walter Masterson -- comedian, political satirist, and not-journalist about how he infiltrated MAGA rallies, the psychology of creating rapport with indoctrinated right-wingers and how his interviews inadvertently provided damning evidence for the January 6th hearings. They discuss the idea of body counts and why anyone would want to be with a partner who is bad at sex. Walter makes a compelling argument for broke dick and they all ponder the existential question about former partners - were they good in bed or just hot/hung? The three also discuss the tragic followers of misogynistic influencers, the pros/cons of dating app culture vs. meeting people irl, and the modern phenomenon of getting your news from comedians. TW: SA.

Ep. 17: Hot Flashes & Cool Topics - Menopause is Not the End!
Rachel and Kirsten talk to Bridgett Biagi Garratt and Colleen Rosenblum of Hot Flashes & Cool Topics: The voice for women in midlife and beyond, about their monumental podcast that tackles the complex and often ignored conversations around menopause. They discuss the lack of research on women's health and pleasure in a deeply patriarchal medical industry. Bridgett and Colleen share their personal experiences with menopause -- its freedoms, their renewed exploration of purpose, and how sex gets better! Spanning late Gen-X to Millennial, the four connect over their mothers' expectations, and the fallacy that marriage and kids determine your worth and security. They mutually blow each other's minds over vaginal dilators, pussy Fit Bits, gender terminology, sex work, and NAMS (North American Menopause Society) Certified doctors.

Ep. 19: Sarah Hartshorne - Magical F*ck Fairy Escort... to Planned Parenthood
Plan B anyone? Sarah Hartshorne - comedian, writer, abortion activist and former model (ANTM Cycle 9), chats with the BBs about her experiences working with Abortion Access Front, new motherhood, and how people (from Evangelicals to mendicants - look it up, I learned something new) treat you differently when you're pregnant / with your newborn. They discuss having a child when you're ready and willing, versus being forced to (by family, spouse, society, etc.). Also mentioned - how Boss Bitches don't always feel like a boss, but acknowledging it is the key, dealing with grief, making amends, having compassion (for ourselves and for those who cause trauma), and how you have to deal with the crap before you get to the gold... aka comedy. TW: sexual assault.
