FH S4E14: Looking Forward, Looking Back

May 13, 2021 12:00 - 20 minutes - 28.3 MB

It's the last episode of Season Four! To commemorate this moment in Feminist Hotdog history, I decided to reflect a bit about the show's origin story, how four seasons of immersing myself in feminism changed me, and a few other things I've learned about myself, the patriarchy, and how to fight it. Feminist Hotdog will be going on hiatus for a few months while I focus on getting REVA Recovery Support off the ground. What will it look like when it comes back? I'm not sure yet, but I'd love t...

FH S4E13: Confronting the Cash Bail System with Ashley Edwards

April 29, 2021 12:00 - 34 minutes - 47.4 MB

The news of Derek Chauvin's conviction and the shooting of Ma'Khia Bryant by a police officer in Ohio both hit hard last week; these events have reignited my thinking about how I can take action to improve outcomes for Black and brown and poor people when they encounter police or become ensnared in the justice system. With that in mind, I decided to rebroadcast this interview with Ashley Edwards about why the cash bail system is a worthy place to put our activist attention and how confrontin...

FH S4E12: Getting Your Sh*t Together with Cynthia Wright

April 15, 2021 12:00 - 40 minutes - 55 MB

Clubhouse has revealed itself to be a place where folks (like me) who have difficulty moderating will quickly run into trouble. Luckily, before I weaned myself off, I had the opportunity to meet Cynthia Wright, a self-described "queer writer and military brat" who also hosts the fabulous recovery podcast Getting Your Sh*t Together. Cynthia's pod offers a unique mix of storytelling, interviews, personal development, social commentary, and—of course—recovery tips. We had a great conversation a...

FH S4E11: Suicide is a Feminist Issue with Sara Scofield

March 25, 2021 12:00 - 1 hour - 82.7 MB

Warning: This episode includes discussion of suicide and suicidal ideation. When Sara and I first spoke about her appearance on Feminist Hotdog, I wasn't entirely clear on the connection between feminism and suicide prevention. However, after this conversation, I realized that suicide is a stigma-laden topic that—like addiction and abuse—often impacts women in unseen ways and must be talked about openly for anything to improve. In this episode, Sara explains how our medical and emergency r...

FH S4E10: Abolitionist Socialist Feminism with Zillah Eisenstein

March 11, 2021 12:00 - 34 minutes - 47.5 MB

Zillah Eisenstein is an influential scholar, writer, and activist who has engaged in feminist action and inquiry for over 40 years. Her book Abolitionist Socialist Feminism profoundly affected me when I read it last year, so I was thrilled when she agreed to come on the show to discuss her career and the state of the world. Among many other topics, we talked about being a white woman raised as an anti-racist, why protests of police brutality gained so much traction in 2020, the many social h...

FH S4E9: Women and the Far Right with Heidi Beirich

February 25, 2021 12:00 - 49 minutes - 68.3 MB

Warning: This episode contains disturbing themes and bigoted language. Listener discretion is advised. This episode may not be a very joyful one, but it is fascinating and urgent—possibly more urgent than ever. My guest is Dr. Heidi Beirich, executive vice president and chief strategy officer at the nonprofit organization Global Project Against Hate and Extremism. Heidi is an international expert on the far right. Our conversation focused on the role of women within anti-democratic moveme...

FH S4E8: Speaking Light Into Abortion with Amanda Star Kingsley

February 11, 2021 12:00 - 40 minutes - 54.9 MB

What do you feel when you hear the word abortion? What words do you associate with it? If you’re Amanda Star Kingsley, those words might be fear or sadness but they might also be strength, purpose, and light. Amanda is a post-abortion life coach. Her mission is to help people achieve the vision for their lives that compelled them to choose abortion. Through her coaching and her podcast, Speaking Light Into Abortion, Amanda is smashing stigmas and asking critical—and sometimes messy—questio...

FH S4E7: Calling Each Other In with Loretta J. Ross

January 28, 2021 12:00 - 54 minutes - 75.1 MB

It's not every day you get to interview a woman who has inspired you for decades. In this episode, I had the privilege of speaking with feminist icon Loretta J. Ross, activist, writer, and scholar, and a critical voice who has helped shape many aspects of the Women's Movement and the ongoing struggle for human rights worldwide. Over the course of her career, she has worked to center Black women and girls in conversations about sexual and gender-based violence, sterilization abuse, violent ex...

FH S4E6: Fifty Feminist Mantras with Amelia Hruby

January 14, 2021 12:00 - 41 minutes - 56.8 MB

What is your feminist story? What do you desire from your feminist life? My guest this week, Amelia Hruby (you may know her from the Fifty Feminist States podcast, among other great work), has written a beautiful new book that inspires readers to ponder these questions and process their answers in writing: Fifty Feminist Mantras. Learn more about Amelia, her feminist vision for 2021, her book (and how to approach it), and get the scoop on her latest invitation to reflect in feminist communi...

FH S4E5: The Social Justice Doula with Lutze B. Segu

December 31, 2020 12:00 - 48 minutes - 67 MB

What conditions are necessary for you to practice the kind of feminism you want to practice? This question is at the heart of today's episode featuring Lutze B. Segu, also known as the Social Justice Doula. Lutze specializes in helping people and organizations create conditions that support deep, sustained social justice work. There's no box-checking on her watch: If you're in Lutze's orbit, you're interrogating white supremacy, un-gentrifying intersectionality, and answering the question, "...

FH S4E4: Making an LGBTQ Family with Robin Hopkins and Jaimie Kelton

December 03, 2020 12:00 - 33 minutes - 46.2 MB

Meet Robin and Jaimie. They’re lesbian moms (NOT MARRIED TO EACH OTHER) who set out to find LGBTQ parenting stories and ended up starting a podcast—and, now, writing a book: If These Ovaries Could Talk: The Things We’ve Learned About Making an LGBTQ Family. It’s a great read based on a great show. It’s also an important one because stories about how LGBTQ folks become parents are as diverse as each letter of the acronym, yet rarely do they get the airtime they deserve. Get ready to laugh a...

FH S4E3: Radical Magick with Dr. Kate Tomas

November 19, 2020 12:00 - 46 minutes - 64 MB

Light some candles and get cozy. This week, I’m featuring a guest who has had a profound personal influence on me: Dr. Kate Tomas, creator of the Spiritual Life Upgrade program and the Money Magic Manifestation course. Kate is a psychic, a witch, and a spiritual empowerment mentor who specializes in helping women and femmes activate their power. She’s also an anti-capitalist who’s ready to hex racists and burn it all to the ground! Everything is an energy game, and I highly recommend you di...

FH S4E2: Caring for Your Soul and Mindset with Jocellyn Harvey

November 05, 2020 12:00 - 39 minutes - 54.3 MB

It’s a stressful week for just about everybody. As of when this episode posted, we still don’t know who the next U.S. president will be. It’s time to spend some extra time caring for ourselves, and Jocellyn Harvey is here to help.  The founder of Soul and Mindset shares some of her favorite techniques for remaining grounded when life feels unbearable, including befriending anger, an emotion most of us try hard to suppress. We also talk about approaching spiritual work with compassion and wh...

FH S4E1: Racism and Recovery with Jessica Hoppe

October 22, 2020 12:00 - 35 minutes - 49.3 MB

Feminist Hotdog is back! In this episode, I had the privilege of speaking to writer Jessica Hoppe about her experience as a first-generation Latina woman with Indigenous roots navigating the recovery landscape. Jessica is using her storytelling skills—and what she learned from getting and staying sober during the Trump era, the COVID-19 pandemic, and the recent uprisings in defense of Black lives—to talk about why recovery communities must acknowledge and address racism in healing spaces. Wh...

FH S3E13: Confronting the Cash Bail System with Ashley Edwards

July 02, 2020 12:00 - 31 minutes - 43.6 MB

Bailout funds have been in the news for weeks now, but how do they fit into the bigger picture of the criminal justice and cash bail systems? Ashley Edwards of MGM Bailout joins Feminist Hotdog this week to talk about the racism inherent in the cash bail system, the predatory lending practices that surround it, how listeners can work to abolish cash bail, and why we should view this as a feminist issue.  Things We Talked About on This Episode MGM Bailout [https://www.mgmbailout.com] Natio...

FH S3E12: Feminism and Policing Abolition

June 18, 2020 12:00 - 32 minutes - 44.1 MB

Advocates of policing abolition have been pushing to defund the police for years, but the recent explosion of public attention on the Movement for Black Lives has more people than ever talking about what an entirely new system of public safety could look like. In this episode, I summarize what I’ve learned over the last few weeks about community-based alternatives to policing, feminist tensions surrounding the abolitionist stance, and what people mean when they say “defund the police.” NOTE:...

FH S3E11: Black Lives Matter

June 04, 2020 12:00 - 7 minutes - 10 MB

This week, Feminist Hotdog is participating in Podcast Blackout out of respect for the memories of Breonna Taylor, George Floyd, Tony McDade, and in observance of the ongoing fight for racial justice that is happening in cities all across the US. Please listen to today's message. It is short but important. I am also adding my voice to the Women of Color podcast community's Podcasters for Justice campaign. It is in solidarity with these podcasters that I share this message and commitment. W...

FH S3E10: Period Poverty and Menstrual Equity

May 21, 2020 12:00 - 38 minutes - 53.2 MB

Let’s talk about periods! Period poverty affects millions of people all over the world, but we rarely talk about it. Because there’s so much shame and stigma surrounding menstruation, people who can’t afford period products—whether in schools, prisons, or in their daily lives—are often left with nowhere to turn for help. But, thanks to activists and advocates like the guests featured in this episode, that’s changing. You’ll meet Leah Rodriguez, a journalist who covers period poverty globall...

FH S3E9: Blast from the Past

May 07, 2020 12:00 - 42 minutes - 58.7 MB

Finding it hard to remember the days before COVID hijacked the world? Me too. So, for this episode, I went into the archives and took a trip down memory lane, unearthing some memorable moments from some of my favorite interviews. I chose three guests who all talked about their incredible passion projects and how their work—whether as writers, performers, or teachers—furthers their vision for collective liberation. You’ll hear from two podcasters, Jana Schmieding of Woman of Size and Amelia H...

FH S3E8: Reading for Liberation

April 23, 2020 12:00 - 40 minutes - 55 MB

Today’s episode is a celebration of the written word in honor of a major milestone—the completion of the Feminist Hotdog book manuscript! (Coming January 2021.) Since words have been dominating my psyche, I decided to devote this week’s episode to reading (and writing!) for liberation. I spoke with Stef Bernal-Martinez of 1977 Books, poet Angbeen Saleem, and Alana Baumann and Samra Michael of the new podcast She Well Read about the role books and poems are playing in their pandemic lives, a...

FH S3E7: Managing Trauma While Isolating with Stephanie James and Alexandra Pajak

April 09, 2020 06:00 - 35 minutes - 48.6 MB

Yep, we’re still inside. Is anyone else scraping the bottom of their self-care toolkit?  If virtual happy hour and Tiger King aren’t cutting it anymore, you need this episode. The COVID-19 pandemic is wreaking havoc on our mental health, especially for the millions of people in this country who suffer from mental illness or have a history of sexual trauma. My guests this week are two mental health providers who each have unique and helpful resources to share.  Stephanie James, host of The ...

March 27, 2020 12:00 - 40 minutes - 55.2 MB

Listen in on my conversations with Erin and Maria of the podcast Feminists Without Mystique, my good friend Joanna Williams, and my 8-year-old niece and first-time podcast guest Evelyn.

She’s on a mission to help women and people of all genders connect with their bodies and their sexual partners and empower themselves to have pleasurable, pain-free sex. If you’re one of the...

FH S3E4: Trans Dudes With Lady Cancer - Yee Won Chong and Brooks Nelson

February 27, 2020 12:00 - 34 minutes - 47.2 MB

What do you do when you and your chosen family member are diagnosed with cancer within days of each other? If you’re Brooks Nelson and Yee Won Chong, you eat a lot of pie—and then you make a movie. As two transmasculine people who were treated for cancers often (and incorrectly) associated only with cisgender women, Brooks and Yee Won are using their story to educate and to inspire change. Hear how their documentary, Trans Dudes With Lady Cancer, is busting myths, opening minds, and challeng...

FH S3E3: Feminism and Sobriety - Part III with Jocellyn Harvey

February 13, 2020 12:00 - 28 minutes - 38.6 MB

For the third and final episode in the Feminism and Sobriety series, I spoke with Jocellyn Harvey, author of Recovering the Home. Jocellyn’s sobriety story led her to a place where she felt the need to recover not only her body and her mind, but also her living space. She developed a four-part framework for women who want to clear their homes of the energy created by their drinking and replace it with a safe, nurturing environment where they can feel comfortable and relaxed without alcohol. ...
