Be Fearless, Be Bold, Be You. This is a mantra that Dominica Ribeiro shares with us in today's podcast, and it is one that she herself has lived. Dominica started her career in finance when she walked into a firm after graduating high school and asked for a job. 27 years later, she is Chief Marketing and Distribution Officer at Breckinridge, a leading asset manager firm.

What Boston sports team won five national championships in the last six years? Hint: it wasn't the Red Sox, Patriots, Celtics or Bruins. The answer: the Boston Renegades, a women's football team. While the local women's teams that have been winning championship after championship, they've received much less fanfare than their male counterparts at Fenway or Gillette Stadium. "Sports aren't inherently male, but in so many spaces we've come to accept them as such," said Rev. Laura Everett, author of the blog, Boston Women's Sports. "We have national and world champions playing locally, but they're not getting the coverage they deserve. Whereas so often women's sports teams are expected to prove that they're worthy, when the men's teams are just presumed that they are." But soccer fans may have reason to rejoice — a bid to bring a new national women's soccer team to Boston could materialize in coming years. Some experts hope it could be the catalyst for local women's teams to finally get the respect and higher profile they have earned. "It's exciting to think that women's pro soccer will be back, hopefully, in Boston and exciting because it's a sport and a league, the NWSL, that's really on the rise. It will be great to have Boston be part of that women's sports conversation nationally." GUESTS Shira Springer, sports journalist and lecturer in Managerial Communication at MIT Reverend Laura Everett, executive director of the Massachusetts Council of Churches, author of the blog, Boston Women's Sports

From early women's liberation's goal in the “Declaration of Sentiments” of rethinking the role of the body to the western philosophy of the mind/body split, the body has been theorized, politicized, and policed. Despite this history of oppression, the body has also been a site of resistance and power. Our hosts discuss various myths, like that of the vaginal orgasm, about the body and landmark texts that have shaped our thinking about embodiment. While the title and inspiration for this episode is taken from the 1970 book Our Bodies, Ourselves by the Boston Women's Health Collective, this episode expands the conversation about embodiment to touch upon trauma studies and trans experience.For full notes, visit: http://www.sarahisomcenter.org/swerve-south/our-bodies-ourselves

On St. Patrick's Day weekend in 1990, two thieves disguised as police officers broke into Boston's Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum and stole 13 works of art, ranging from a Vermeer masterpiece to a decorative eagle. By dawn the next morning, the thieves and the art had vanished, and clues were few and far between. In the thirty-odd years since the theft, not one piece has been recovered, despite a $10 million reward. Sources include: "The Gardner Heist" by U.

Wendy Sanford, author, editor, and a founding member of the Boston Women's Health Book Collective. Her debut memoir is These Walls Between Us: A Memoir of Friendship Across Race and Class (SheWrites Press). On Wendy Sanford's website you can go to a page titled Meet Mary Norman: Leading the way for women in New Jersey corrections work 1968-1993. On that page are a series of events that shaped Mary Norman's life and the people she worked with. These are interesting stories that highlight her contributions. For example, when she was punished for her belief in prisoner rehabilitation, she turned what was meant to be a demeaning demotion into a training program to teach pre-release inmates how to prepare for next steps, filling out work applications, dressing for interviews, things like that. This week's Write the Book Prompt is to go to that site and read about Mary Norman and her work. Then, if you are moved to do so, write a poem, story, or essay about whatever comes to mind. Maybe you could write about one of the prisoners who had to learn how to dress for an interview. Or you could write from the perspective of a racist guard who didn't like Mary supervising his work, but came to like and respect the way she supported him. I hope that - like me - you will be inspired by what you learn. Good luck with your work in the coming week, and tune in next week for another prompt or suggestion. Music Credit: Aaron Shapiro 707
WENDY SANFORD grew up in an upper-middle-class white suburban family in Princeton, New Jersey, and attended private schools throughout her life. During the socially turbulent time of the 1970s, she became a feminist, a lesbian, and a Quaker. A founding member of the Boston Women's Health Book Collective, Wendy coauthored and edited many versions of the women's health and sexuality classic Our Bodies, Ourselves from 1973 to 2011. In seminary at Harvard Divinity School in the '80s, she began to read works of women of color as “devotional reading,” to remedy her previous exclusive exposure to white and mostly male authors. She served for nearly a decade in campus ministry in the Boston area. In her fifties, she began to reckon with her own white skin and the benefits that came to her through being white. In 2003, she earned an MFA in Writing from Vermont College. She is grateful to Mary Norman for partnering with her to create this book. She lives in Cambridge, MA, with Polly Attwood, her spouse of 41 years.

We had the pleasure of interviewing EMELINE over Zoom video! Up-and-coming singer/songwriter EMELINE shares her magnetic new single “this is how i learn to say no” — a strong-minded and cathartic pop song about the power in setting boundaries and speaking your truth. “this is how i learn to say no” follows the 22-year-old artist's breakout single “flowers & sex” (an equally candid track that amassed over 10 million global streams in just eight weeks). Go HERE to download/stream “this is how i learn to say no” now.Originally from Rhode Island and now based in Los Angeles, EMELINE has a tremendous vocal range that's in full force on “this is how i learn to say no.” With its woozy guitar tones and darkly charged beats, the track also showcases EMELINE's immense talent as a lyricist, striking a stunning balance between raw vulnerability and unapologetic self-possession (e.g., “People talk shit, say they're gonna get better/I hold my breath, I can't hold it forever”). Written about her last relationship failing as she learned to set boundaries, “this is how i learn to say no” also speaks to the experience of watching her parents' 15+ year marriage fall apart. Proving the incredible impact of her songwriting and vocal work, EMELINE recently had a viral moment on TikTok after posting a clip of her father's deeply emotional reaction to hearing “this is how i learn to say no” for the first time.“Setting up boundaries in order to show up for myself is a necessity for me, says EMELINE. “Once I realized that, I told my ex I didn't deserve to be hurt in the ways that he hurt me, and then I went straight to the studio and wrote “this is how i learn to say no”. A few days later I uploaded the song to TikTok and experienced an outpouring of encouragement and understanding from people who felt seen in the lyrics and were empowered to set boundaries and heal in their own lives. I believe that it is my mission in life to be a healer, and music is the channel I use to do that.”A multi-instrumentalist who plays guitar and piano, EMELINE first broke through with the premiere of “flowers & sex” — an irresistibly bold anthem that hit #4 on Spotify's U.S. Viral 50 chart. Along with landing on nearly 30 Spotify editorial playlists, the track earned critical praise from outlets like Paper (who noted that the “blunt pop anthem…arrives at a time when people are craving a little self-love and a lot of sexual pleasure after a year of endless isolation”) and Earmilk (who hailed the song as“seductive, confident and perfect in synergy” while praising EMELINE as “transformative”). EMELINE first teased “flowers & sex” with an ecstatic clip on TikTok that's now surpassed a staggering 18 million views combined, while the track has amassed over 10 million global streams since it's release in June.In all of her music, EMELINE moves forward with her mission of uplifting and supporting women everywhere. Naming the gritty honesty of artists like Alanis Morissette among her main inspirations, she previously made waves with a captivating performance at the the first-ever Boston Women's March, where she debuted her empowering single “Hush” to a crowd of 175,000.ABOUT EMELINEBorn in Rhode Island and based in Los Angeles, EMELINE is an emerging artist with a boldly original songwriting voice. Her effortless vocal tone, biting lyrics, and affinity for eccentric production converge in such fiercely honest tracks as “flowers & sex” — a June 2021 release that amassed over 10 million global streams in just eight weeks, in addition to hitting #4 on Spotify's U.S. Viral 50 chart, landing on nearly 30 Spotify editorial playlists, and surpassing 18 million views on TikTok. A multi-instrumentalist who plays piano and guitar, EMELINE has entranced audiences since taking the stage at the first-ever Boston Women's March, where the then-17-year-old debuted her single “Hush” to a crowd of 175,000. The 22-year-old singer/songwriter is at work on new music and continuing with her mission of creating uncompromising pop that supports and uplifts women everywhere.

Tonight's episode is the culmination of my month-long journey into the history, biology, and experiences of women. My survey responses are modified from the book, “The Women Who Broke All the Rules” By Susan B. Evans, Ed. D., and Joan P. Avis, Ph. D., and I made lots of discoveries hearing about different women's perspectives. Included in tonight's episode is my review of two chapters of “Our Bodies, Ourselves” by the Boston Women's Health Book Collective, and my rant about the unconscionable invasion of property that I suffered at the beginning of the week. Lastly, my cohorts and I share with you some words of wisdom that, hopefully, you can incorporate into your life. Thank you so much for taking this journey with me.

Amy: Welcome to Breaking Down Patriarchy! I'm Amy McPhie Allebest. Our book today was published in 1970, and it's called Our Bodies, Ourselves: A Book By and For Women. And before we even talk about the content I want to pause and think about the weight of that title. For listeners who have been with us since the beginning, you'll remember Gerda Lerner's The Creation of Patriarchy, and how ancient laws designated women's bodies as belonging to men. For thousands of years, women were legally bought and sold by men. Men had the right to kill a woman for breaking certain laws or to kill her baby if they decided to; men had the legal right to rape and to beat their wives until very, very recently, even in this country. Then think of the medical paternalism in “The Yellow Wallpaper,” and how women were still not believed when they talked about their own physical or mental health. Then remember “The Case for Birth Control” in the 20's and 30's, and how the Comstock Laws forbade people from mentioning women's reproductive systems, and birth control was completely illegal, so women had no idea how to control their own pregnancies or births. When we consider this historical timeline, it feels like a powerful act for women to proclaim OUR BODIES, OURSELVES: A BOOK BY AND FOR WOMEN. It's an act of claiming ownership and sovereignty. I should also alert listeners that we do talk about sexuality in this episode, so if you've recommended this podcast to kids, you should give this one a listen before deciding what age it's appropriate for. And now I want to introduce my reading partner today, Jessica Harder. Hi, Jessica! Jessica: (Response) Amy: Jessica is my husband Erik's cousin (younger and cooler than we are) :) , and she's the niece of the amazing Franceskay Allebes, who did our episode on John Stuart Mill's The Subjection of Women a few months ago. So to start off, Jessica, can you tell us a little about yourself? Jessica: • born in 1984/ Grew up in southern California. Conservative religious upbringing with a strong patriarchal culture Dutch background influence in upbringing I didn't realize some of my upbringing was Dutch culture until I later lived there. Dutch culture is closer to an egalitarian society than in the US. Mixed messages: Many strong women in my family/ women take a back seat to men at church I was also trained to want children and a husband. But could have cared less for this. Parents artist: art was an influence at home Started designing and sewing at the age of 4 At 5 years old I saw a career woman wearing a suit pick up another kid at school. I was mesmerized. At that moment I knew I had to be a career woman. I figured out I could combine the designing and career together and At 16 started designing for a designer. 17 was on the Nordstrom's fashion Board At 18 I went to school for design, which was a no brainer. At the same time I started doing yoga and meditation Started working for a local designer all through school. When I graduated I took off and moved to the Netherlands. The first week there I met my husband. I taught myself to speak Dutch. While I lived there I worked in tourism, for a bike company, and in the fashion industry. Work sent me back to school to study the Dutch language and I started doing translation work for them. After 6 years I ended my time in the Netherlands working for my favorite designer My husband and I moved to USA. We lived with and took care of my Dutch grandfather for 4 years. I went through a career switch due to: toxic environment, not wanting to promote consumerism, wanting to work less than 70 hours a week. So after 13 years of doing yoga I completed a 200 hour Yoga Alliance Teacher Training Program and became a yoga teacher. In my teaching carrier I taught at a senior center, rock
Five decades on, Laura Barton looks back at the creation of Our Bodies, Ourselves - a revolutionary text in the history of women's liberation. Written and published by a group of women who met in 1969 at a Women's Liberation Conference, and who later formed the Boston Women’s Health Book Collective, it discussed sexual health, sexual orientation, birth control, abortion, pregnancy, childbirth, menopause, consent and abuse. Interweaving women's personal stories with practical, clearly written information, it encouraged women to not only get to know their own bodies but to enjoy their sexuality. It became one of the best-selling feminist texts of all time, updated repeatedly across the decades with the most recent edition coming out in 2011. In this Archive on 4, we hear new interviews with some of the Our Bodies, Ourselves founders - Miriam Hawley, Wendy Sanford, Norma Swenson, Jane Pincus, Judy Norsigian and Vilunya Diskin - alongside vivid recordings from the feminist movement at the time and archives from the project over the decades. We explore the freedom that can come from self-knowledge - the power in knowing how we work, on not having to defer to others for explanation of our pain or our pleasure and delve into how the text has been adapted across borders with current OBOS board member Diana Namumbejja Abwoye. We also hear from sex educators and writers inspired by Our Bodies, Ourselves, as Laura examines what factors can shape our access to information. With archive from the Schlesinger Library, Radcliffe Institute, Harvard University, WDEE and WAMU Presented by Laura Barton Produced by Eleanor McDowall A Falling Tree production for BBC Radio 4
If you worked in Boston in the 1970s, you may have known that a group of women clerical workers mobilized for better pay, advancement opportunities, and an end to sexual harassment. After organizing, they eventually formed the organization 9to5, which still exists today in several U.S. cities and inspired the hit film 9 to 5 starring Dolly Parton, Jane Fonda, and Lily Tomlin. In this episode, I talk about what's still happening today and the lessons we can take from those inspiring women clerical workers of Boston, including the importance of forming unions.

Warning: This post is going to be a little bit crude. I find the proceedings in the Senate to be very crude, so this is nothing compared to that – but if crude language isn’t for you, this might be one to skip. Hey everybody – the Heritage Foundation would like you to know that Amy Coney Barrett is NOT a handmaid for patriarchy. I saw a headline from them saying as such when I googled her name and “Handmaid for the Patriarchy” because I was sure someone had already written this piece and found the Heritage Foundation’s headline instead. And we should all trust that the Heritage Foundation knows about these things, right? That Conservative Fundamentalist Think Tank wouldn’t say something like that if it wasn’t true, right? The fact is – The Heritage Foundation, while being a great representation OF the Patriarchy, does not know what the Patriarchy is – and certainly does not understand how Barrett is, in fact, absolutely a handmaiden for it.

Historians call it ephemera: the ticket stubs and posters that often are just thrown away or put in scrapbooks. But there are times when the humble handmade sign becomes more than a personal memory — it becomes documentary evidence of a special moment in time. That's why Smithsonian archivists started collecting the handmade posters and other materials especially created for the street protests following the deaths of Ahmaud Arbery, Breonna Taylor and George Floyd. Why is it important to collect this protest art? And what is its historic meaning? Guests: Aaron Bryant, museum curator at the Smithsonian's National Museum of African American History and Culture in Washington, D.C. Steven Booth, archivist with the U.S. National Archives, and member of ‘The Blackivists' a collective of trained Black archivists who prioritize Black cultural heritage preservation. Alessandra Renzi, associate professor of communication studies at Concordia University, who spearheaded ‘The Art of the March' initiative at Northeastern University - a digital archive of the 2017 Boston Women's March. LATER IN THE SHOW: “See Yourself in STEM” — That's the theme of the Massachusetts third annual STEM Week, which kicks off Oct. 19. The theme zeroes in on the need to reach out to women of color. Just 4 percent of scientists and engineers in the U.S. are Black or Hispanic women, according to a 2015 report by the National Science Foundation. For 25 years, the Science Club for Girls has aimed to expose and engage young women of color by providing free experiential science programming in Cambridge. They've had great success: 100% of the girls, who mostly come from underrepresented communities, have gone on to college. In addition to the Science Club, 26 Boston public high school seniors have won the inaugural Paula S. Apsell Scholarship, which is co-sponsored by GBH. These scholarship winners plan to study in the fields of science, technology, engineering and mathematics. Both efforts hope to empower young women, especially, who still represent a tiny percentage of the 600,000 Massachusetts residents who work in STEM. Guests: Christina Exilhomme, Freshman at Northeastern University on the pre-med track, and one of the winners of The Paula S. Apsell | GBH STEM Boston Public School Scholarship. Kaelyn Brown, Co-director of the Science Club for Girls Harvard Mentor chapter, and senior at Harvard majoring in neuroscience. Alejandra Carvajal, Science Club for Girls' Governance Chair on the Board of Directors and Chief Legal Officer forMomenta Pharmaceuticals, Inc. in Cambridge. SHOW CREDITS: Under the Radar with Callie Crossley is a production of GBH, produced by Hannah Uebele and engineered by Dave Goodman. Kate Dario is our intern.

On this episode of the en(gender)ed podcast, our guest is Jennifer Block, journalist and author of the book, Everything Below the Waist: Why Health Care Needs a Feminist Revolution. We speak with Jennifer today about the ways in which the health industry--from preparation and trainings of doctors, to research devoted to understanding women's bodies, to the dismissal of women's pain--contribute to a culture where women's health is systemically ignored and minimized, and women's trauma, in response, collectively normalized and accepted. We explore what it means to be a woman navigating our culture who centers her own health, well-being and care, and the obstacles she encounters and must overcome everyday. During our conversation, Jennifer and I referenced the following resources and topics: The book, Taking Charge of Your Fertility by Toni Weschler Actress Lena Dunham's struggle with endometriosis and subsequent decision to get a hysterectomy How the incentive structure for surgeons working on women's issues impacts the trends in frequency for procedures and outcomes for women's health The phenomenon of "unwarranted variation in care" for pregnant women depending on the hospital you visit How obstetric violence is physically and emotionally harming women and threatening our right to make decisions about our labor and delivery The Alabama case of Caroline Malatesta whose baby's head was forced back into her vagina to prevent her from delivering The 95 felony charges against midwife, Elizabeth Caitlin, for practicing midwifery without a NYS license Increased maternal mortality rates for Black women in NYS How Black babies are 3x more likely to die when treated by a white doctor Some ways ratification of the Equal Rights Amendment will equalize access to health care for women Our Bodies Ourselves, by the Boston Women's Health Book Collective A New View of a Woman's Body, by the Federation of Women's Health Centers --- Thanks for tuning in to the en(gender)ed podcast!

Ten days after our son was born, the doctors sat us down and said that he was going to be a vegetable. -Lauren Pimpare Lauren's story is both heartbreaking and uplifting, all at the same time. A successful executive in the healthcare field, Lauren is a big believer in the power of the word “we”, so she founded two organizations called Tomorrow's Women Today and the Boston Women's Leadership Council. At that time in her life, the sky was the limit. It was June 15, 2011 and Lauren was in labor with her second child. The city of Boston was alive with excitement as the Bruins shut out Vancouver 4-0 in game 7 of the Stanley Cup. Always huge hockey fans, Lauren and her husband decided to name their son “Boston” in honor of the Bruin's victory. And then, the unthinkable happened. Lauren's baby experienced a traumatic brain injury during childbirth. On a day that started with bliss, Lauren's world turned upside down. Eight years later, the lessons have been many. The same women Lauren rallied to form her supportive professional organizations have come running to her door to offer help with open hearts and hands. Her climb up the career ladder experienced a full stop, but her journey remains rich and meaningful. “When women come together, we're unstoppable. You can't quiet us. We're loud and powerful and we have a lot to say”. If you have a child with special needs, this episode will fill you with hope and love. @BWME #storybehindhersuccess #16LifeLessons #mydoveproductions
In Ayurveda, our menstrual cycle provides us with a uniquely valuable insight into the workings of our female body. In this episode, Eminé Rushton takes a look at how each part of our menstrual cycle is defined by a different dosha – which gives each part its own natural characteristics and sensations – and how each dosha type presents with a different set of pre- post- and menstrual symptoms and experiences. By looking to balance the body with diet, lifestyle and spiritual practices, we can look to create a truly gentle period, and a harmonised menstrual cycle. I mention shatavari, brahmi (gotu kola or bacopa) and tulsi (holy basil) in this podcast too – they are wonderful adaptogenic herbs, which are useful for bringing balance to our bodies. Always seek out a reputable organic supplier – I like Pukka, Organic India and Ayurveda Pura. It is always a good idea to have a full Ayurvedic consultation with a doctor or practitioner – the APA UK (Ayurvedic Practitioner’s Association) are a wonderful resource for this. Some fantastic books, a few of which I mention in this podcast, which help us better understand our bodies and cycles: Women’s Bodies and Cycles Wild Power, Alexandra Pope and Sjanie Wurlitzer Love Your Lady Landscape, Lisa Lister Code Red, Lisa Lister and Megan Watterson Yoni Shakti, Uma Dinsmore Tuli Period Power, Nadya Okamato Womancode, Alisa Vitti Our Bodies Our Selves, Boston Women’s Health Book Collective Women’s Bodies Women’s Wisdom, Dr Christiane Northrup Moon Time, Lucy H.

Joyce Antler is the Samuel J. Lane Professor Emerita of American Jewish history and culture at Brandeis University. Jewish Radical Feminism: Voices from the Women's Liberation Movement (New York University Press, 2018) provides richly detailed biographies of known and unknown Jewish women from Shulamith Firestone to Aviva Cantor, who were the backbone of the movement. Their backgrounds hidden from historical view, and unrecognized, are brought to light. Many Jewish radical women emerged from the New Left and went on to create local women-centered groups such as the Gang of Four, Boston Women's Health Collective, and Bread and Roses. How they navigated their experiences of being both Jewish and feminists provides insight into Jewish life and the relationship between religion, ethnic identity and feminism. In their diversity, from holding on to a traditional faith making room for feminism, to those who pulled away to lead secular lives, they encountered anti-Semitism, stereotypes, and connections across differences. The book demonstrates the rich contribution of Jewish values and identity had on the women's liberation movement and how in turn they changed Jewish life in America. Lilian Calles Barger is a cultural, intellectual and gender historian.

Many Jewish radical women emerged from the New Left and went on to create local women-centered groups such as the Gang of Four, Boston Women’s Health Collective, and Bread and Roses. How they navigated their experiences of being both Jewish and feminists provides insight into Jewish life and the relationship between religion, ethnic identity and feminism. In their diversity, from holding on to a traditional faith making room for feminism, to those who pulled away to lead secular lives, they encountered anti-Semitism, stereotypes, and connections across differences. The book demonstrates the rich contribution of Jewish values and identity had on the women’s liberation movement and how in turn they changed Jewish life in America. Lilian Calles Barger is a cultural, intellectual and gender historian. Her recent book is entitled The World Come of Age: An Intellectual History of Liberation Theology (Oxford University Press, 2018). Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

In this episode of the Birth Kweens Podcast, Karly and Ali talk with Vienna Farlow (aka – The Cuntsultant) about general body literacy and the Justisse Method of fertility awareness. Vienna is a vagina enthusiast, advocate, and student. The Cuntsultant is the culmination of her lifelong pursuit to learn as much as possible about the vagina and the people who have them -- physically, emotionally, and spiritually. She strongly believes that all female bodied people should be empowered to know more about their bodies and the way they work. She is passionate about reproductive justice, LGBTQ+ inclusion, full spectrum care, abortion access and provocation in the name of education. She is currently a Justisse Holistic Reproductive Health Practitioner intern and a member of the Association of Fertility Awareness Professionals. Here’s what the Kweens covered in their conversation with Vienna: Vienna’s background and how she became The Cuntsultant Her path to discovering the fertility awareness method and what learning about it did for her sense of body literacy What the Justisse Method of fertility awareness is all about Vienna’s experience with hormonal birth control Whether the fertility awareness method can be used in concert with hormonal birth control How Justisse is unique compared to other fertility awareness methods The practicalities and logistics of using the Justisse Method to track fertility – what tools and information you need and how to interpret the data that’s collected to inform fertility decisions The role that a basal body thermometer plays in fertility tracking (and Vienna’s current favorite, the Geratherm) Some common misconceptions about fertility tracking and why using an app to track your cycles is NOT a form of birth control!!

The Boston Women’s Municipal League was a civic organization made up of mostly middle and upper class women, at a time when most women didn’t work outside the home. In 1915, they declared war on rats. Over the next few years, Women's Municipal League published literature on eradicating rats, carried out an extensive education campaign, and in 1917 hosted a city-wide Rat Day with cash prizes for the citizens who killed the most rats.

For our 2 year anniversary, we'll be covering true crime documentaries all throughout May for our MAYHEM series. Trigger Warning! Extremely graphic violence described. Paco and George delve into Interview With A Serial Killer with our guest comedian Allison Mick. Allison Mick is an Oakland-based comedian and writer originally from Rochester, NY. She draws from her upbringing and personal experiences to address topics like race, gender, and serial killers. She’s performed at SF Sketchfest, the Boston Women in Comedy Festival, and the Hudson Valley Comedy Festival. Interview With A Serial Killer is a British 2006 production featuring Christopher Martin’s prison interview with “The Genesee River Killer” Arthur Shawcross. Found guilty of killing two children and 11 prostitutes, Shawcross’ tales of cannibalism and mutilation have made him one of America’s most notorious serial killers. That he killed 13 people by asphyxiation is certain. But exactly what he did to his victims and why is not at all clear. His story has changed many, many times over the years. Margaret Deming discovered that Shawcross was her father in 2000, but she has embraced their relationship and even allows him to play grandfather to her seven kids. Interview with a Serial Killer interviews Shawcross as well as Margaret in an effort to find out the truth. There's also LaCroix tasting, blinkiness, working for prosecutor Charles Siragusa, JonBenét Ramsey theories, LA's Museum Of Death, and Burzum. http://www.acakebakesinbrooklyn.com/2012/07/when-murder-and-pastry-collide.html http://www.nydailynews.com/news/justice-story/serial-killer-jailhouse-artist-article-1.1762308Follow us on:Twitter: @supdocpodcastInstagram: @supdocpodcastFacebook: @supdocpodcastsign up for our mailing listAnd you can show your support to Sup Doc by donating on Patreon.

It's time to review our long crazy day at the Boston Women's March! (The ride into the city was crazy enough; all 175,000 marchers squished into the same subway car, or so it seemed...) Lots more friends of the Flopcast were out that day too, both in Boston and throughout the world... but the only familiar face we found in the crowd was Keytar Bear. (A bear playing a keytar does tend to stand out...) And in an effort to be completely exhausted, we also attended the ACLU benefit after-party, with awesome performances by Stars Like Ours, Carissa Johnson, and Petty Morals. (Did the whole night end with an appropriate George Michael cover? But of course.) Plus: Listener feedback from last week's Top 4 1/2 List of doctors! (Yikes, we missed some big ones.) And Kornflake reminds us to celebrate Plimsoll Line Day, because these may not be good times, but you still have to keep your head above water. (See, no matter how bad things get, we'll just keep making sitcom references...)
