Writer Briallen Hopper joins co-hosts Whitney Terrell and V.V. Ganeshananthan to talk about in vitro fertilization and the recent Alabama State Supreme Court ruling declaring that frozen embryos have the same rights as children. Hopper speaks about the science and thought behind freezing embryos versus eggs, as well as the religious language embedded in the court's decision. She reads an excerpt from a 2019 Washington Post essay about her choice to freeze embryos as a single person and reflects on repeating the process later, with a partner.

How To Write Your Memoir

Everyone has a story to tell. Whether it was some crazy life adventure, a family history, or a personal reflection, memoir writing is a great way to make sense of the world and our place in it. Maybe you've even started writing yourself. But it's not easy to write personal stories. The process can be intimidating, vulnerable, and uncomfortable. Cullen Thomas, a teacher at Gotham Writers, and Briallen Hopper, an associate professor at Queens College, both teach memoir writing to aspiring writers, and they join us to talk about the basic skills needed to write creative and narrative-driven non-fiction, how to dig deeper into your own story, and take calls from listeners for any writing questions or to give advice on your own memoir ideas.

Host Catherine Nichols discusses Helen Gurley Brown's 1962 Sex and the Single Girl with guests Briallen Hopper and Samantha Allen, both contributors to the 2022 collection Sex and the Single Woman: 24 Writers Reimagine Helen Gurley Brown's Cult Classic. The conversation covers Brown's class consciousness as well as the perplexing combination of hope and drudgery involved in her advice for living a glamorous, feminine life. While Brown acknowledged before her death that her advice was only for a narrow slice of the population--she acknowledged that lesbians might exist, but she had no useful advice for them—Nichols, Hopper, and Allen discuss how her form of femininity affected their lives. Briallen Hopper is the author of Hard to Love: Essays and Confessions (Bloomsbury, 2019) and Gilead Reread (forthcoming from Columbia University Press). Her work has appeared in the Los Angeles Review of Books, The Paris Review, the Washington Post, The Yale Review, and elsewhere. She teaches creative nonfiction in the MFA program at Queens College, CUNY and in the Yale Prison Education Initiative. Samantha Allen is the author of Patricia Wants to Cuddle (Zando, 2022) and the Lambda Literary Award finalist Real Queer America: LGBT Stories from Red States (Little, Brown, 2019). She is a GLAAD Award-winning journalist and editor with bylines in The New York Times, Rolling Stone, CNN, and more. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

This week, I delve deeper into the tricky question of whether I should freeze embryos or eggs. Dr James takes me through the success rates of both and American writer Briallen Hopper tells me about how freezing embryos impacted her dating life. Meanwhile, the European director of the world’s biggest sperm bank reveals why so many British women seek sperm from Denmark, and Sally tells me about her experience with a Danish sperm bank. I also chat to a sperm donor about how the donating process actually works (and why it’s nothing like the comedy scenes in the movies). As I’m deliberating all this, I bloat like the Michelin Man and finally get to take the trigger injection which prompts my ovaries to get ready for my operation. *This podcast is not to replace medical advice.

Theory Meets Practice: A Podcast for Teachers

We are sharing workshop that we did at our school for our faculty and staff. We hold monthly workshops on important intersectionality ideas where we discuss, share, and reflect upon our teaching practices with our colleagues. Last week, we held a workshop where we explored the nuances of kinship. We discussed how kinship is traditionally defined and how feminists seek to define it in non-heteronormative terms. We talked about how many people, including many of our students, do not have access to the traditional definition of kinship due to a variety of reasons, like trauma. Many people must access alternative definitions of kinship in order to survive. We discussed Hortense Spillers' text "Mama's Baby, Papa's Maybe" and the article "Relying on Friendship in a World Made for Couples" by Briallen Hopper.Questions to consider: Why is kinship important in a school community? In the classroom? In the school? And specifically for teachers? What are some tools we can use to encourage empathy in order to build kinship in our classrooms?Support the show (https://theorymeetspracticepod.blogspot.com/)

Theory Meets Practice: A Podcast for Teachers

Hello podcast listeners! We wanted to send a quick update since there will not be a new episode out today. A rare occurrence has happened in the greater Seattle area: we are snowed in! We thought that since we are snowed in at our respective houses, we'd give you a text recommendation for you to read to prepare for our next podcast episode. Our recommended text is an article called "Relying on Friendship in a World Built for Couples" by Briallen Hopper. You can access this article by Googling it or accessing the link at our website: www.theorymeetspracticepod.com. This is a wonderful and thoughtful piece about how female kinship structures need nurturing especially in a world of heteronormative (straight, nuclear family) dominance.Support the show (https://theorymeetspracticepod.blogspot.com/)
