Damnsels Delays Week, Day 5: Deus Sex Machina

Elizabeth Riley — Fri, 01 Oct 2021 08:00:00 -0600

*Because of our shitty, unnamed previous podcast hosting site, the general public has been denied some of our best episodes for far too long! So what are we doing? We're having a week of Damnsels Delays - we're releasing some of our "lost episodes" every day this week! *

Originally published December 10th, 2020

This week, we wrap up our series on Ratched with what is arguably a better climax than the actual show. Ali and Ari dissect the women-on-women aggression in the show, while Liz expresses her rage at the problematic Ryan Murphy. Maybe the real feminist horror story was the friendships we made along the way!

We also give a shoutout to our Patrons who have so lovingly supported us this year. Thank you!

The Damnsels Podcast - Trailer

Elizabeth Riley — Sun, 30 Aug 2020 19:36:00 -0600

Women in pop culture have fascinated us for centuries. This is a podcast where we talk about them- why we love them, who they are, what impact they've had on us, and why they're feminist icons...or not. Join us as we pick through the heroines who've inspired us to be brave, the friends we'd share a latte with- or both. Each week a revolving cast of bossy bad-ass feminist women take a bite out of the fictional peaches who've sweetened up our lives. We laugh. We cry. We sing Purple Rain by Prince for as long as we can without getting sued. A feminist podcast for all genders.
