In the first episode of Hear Her Voice, Laura Whitmore is joined by her special guests, Self Esteem and Lliana Bird, to discuss how female musicians have expressed themselves through music, addressing how they relate to celebrating their sexuality, confronting their body image and analysing their place in the world through their songs. Together they explore how taboo-breaking female musicians have used both their lyrics and their visuals to empower women and take control of their sex and sexuality, making the private - public, expressing their sexuality on their own terms and destigmatising female sexual desire over the decades. Self Esteem is the experimental solo pop project of Rebecca Lucy Taylor. Her debut album under the name Self Esteem, ‘Compliments Please', was released in 2019 and Self Esteem's second and latest album, ‘Prioritise Pleasure' was released in October 2021. The Guardian, The Sunday Times and Gigwise all ranked ‘Prioritise Pleasure' as the best album of 2021. And the Guardian also named Self Esteem's song ‘I Do This All The Time' as the best song of 2021. Lliana Bird, aka Birdy, is a Radio host / DJ on Radio X (Xfm). She's the host and creator of #LazyMumRecipes @llianabird on Instagram and host and co-creator of feminist podcast ‘Get it Off your Breasts', and the science podcast ‘Geek Chic's Weird Science'. Author of the book ‘The mice who sing for sex: and other weird tales from the world of science'. Featuring Hear Her Voice's resident music expert Laura Snapes on Shania Twain. Laura Snapes is one of the foremost music journalists in the UK. Currently deputy music editor at The Guardian, she has also held roles as features editor for NME and associate editor at Pitchfork.Episode Spotify Playlist: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/5JMerK8ZoqUjXfyZmsB71F?si=278dab23764f47a0
So much for on-topic - you can't get lost when you're already there. The Gearhead Consultancy is off to the races yet again, this time debating whether left and right is better than here to there, and arriving at the fact that both could require talent so you'd better have some. Like the ads say, there's more: the ret-con of Bubba's faux-noose fail, the scary fact that your map-app is out to get you (Who said artificial intelligence is required to like you?), and rock with roll by Fatso Jetson, Bio-Mechanical Degeneration, Atomic Bitchwax, Failure and Tom Waits.

In this episode we FINALLY have good reason to look at "Birds of Prey" the Harley Quinn spin-off movie that was received with mixed impressions.

Heute geht es weiter mit unserer Modern Dress Code Reihe und dieses Mal stellt Dir die AMD-Studentin Ornella Sonderegger den Geek Chic vor. Sie hat festgestellt, dass nicht alle Männer gleichermaßen euphorisch sind, wenn die Themen Stil und Mode zur Sprache kommen. Doch auch Pragmatiker und Mode-Verweigerer kommen jetzt auf ihre Kosten. Was Dein Lieblings-T-Shirt mit diesem Dresscode zu tun hat, wieso Du plötzlich Farben wild miteinander mixen darfst und vor allem warum es erstrebenswert ist, sich wie ein Geek zu kleiden? Das alles erfährst Du in der heutigen Special-Folge.
Note: This podcast is being released out of order (note that it is the 47th Shooting the Shit) because I quite enjoy it and thought we could all use something unique to get us through the days right now. Cheers! This podcast is an interview style show where each episode will have a different person(s) with a different interesting story, job, thing to plug, etc. Depending on how things go I may get people in local bands, businesses, who knows! In this Episode Chippa is honored to be once again joined by Robert V Aldrich; novelist, serialist, public speaker, and general Geek Chic aficionado. Rob did a panel at this years MAG FEST (remember when cons actually happened?!?) about Street Fighter if it existed in the real world. We continue that discussion here and do our own version with randomized panels. https://youtu.be/j_pZ8GvYahg Enjoy! Twitter: @rvaldrich Website: https://teachthesky.com/

Today on the podcast we welcome our good friend, Jordan Ellis of Jordandené. She is an amazing woman who has a geeky lifestyle brand based in Brooklyn. She sells things that are juts subtly nerdy, from T’s, to tanks, to mugs, to phone cases and more. Jordan also recently started the Satorial Geek, a quarterly magazine and now a podcast all about girl power and promoting that nerd culture. Jordan is so amazing that it’s no wonder that this is our third time having her on the show! We’ll give you an overview of the other episodes Jordan has done with us, in order to give you a bird’s eye view of her business and some of the strategic moves she’s made. In this episode, however, we discuss adding extra aspects to a physical product-based business as a way to contribute to bigger goals that might not be present today. We also discuss the challenges around diversity, representation, and inclusivity in the online space and look to Jordan as a business owner who is really leading the way. We also get her insights on how to stand out in a super tiny product-based niche. There is so much to be learned from Jordan and we hope you enjoy her company as much as we do!

There’s a silly joke that’s made the rounds on the internet that I just had to share. A kid sees a floppy disk and says, “Oh, you 3-D printed the ‘save’ icon!” There’s a reason why we all love it. For those who don’t remember, floppy disks were a mainstay until the mid-1990s, before saving data to CDs, the cloud or to a zip drive became all the rage. For a frame of reference, a floppy disk isn’t even big enough to hold one modern-day song. Talk about the worst playlist ever! So, while you might reminisce about the “save” icon of the past, I think we can all agree modern technology beats it any day! The post Jessica Naziri: She’s Making Geek Chic appeared first on On The Dot Woman.

I remember in Middle School (year 7-8) at the dances, the slow songs were the best and worst. Best because you get to dance with a girl (yay)! Worst because you had to ASK the girl to dance and possibly face rejection. Heavy stuff for an adolescent teen. However, the slow jams themselves were always good and stuck with me even today. I have a distinct memory for a lot of the songs in the mix. No real overall theme just some jams you might of forgot. Enjoy! Search: "DJ Cam - GeekChic DJ's" on itunes or check me at heydjcam.com

IamDJDubz Presents *M.I.M.E* (Music Is My Escape) When in doubt just spin it out. Last week I was feeling some sort of way and i couldn't figure out why. I had some productive meetings about work but my day just wouldn't get right. I felt Bored, I felt alone, I felt bothered, I felt different. So, when i got home I spun and spun and spun until my thoughts were clear and as I was spinning I decided to finally hit the record button, then said to myself "what ever you produce put it out as a reflection of how you feel, let the music just be you clear mind and zone". Its not so much about my song selection in this one, it was the fact that i began to laugh smile and have tons of fun while I was doing it and thats what was missing. So with that being said.

I happen to love these songs and was in the moment during soundcheck with MIke Posner today so i put a mix together. Had to do it in my headphones so i know i was rocking to myself.

I was introduced to Dancehall by my fellow crew member, DJ Sid VIcious way back in the early 00s. Wasn't really my thing but I enjoyed the bumpin' and grindin'. Fast forward some 10 years later and my ex girlfriend (literally a dancehall queen) showed me the vastness of all the subgenres and dance moves and culture of Jamaica. So this mix represents both: the old stuff that I first heard and the newer stuff I learned later. By no means is this a definite mix, just the stuff I like! Enjoy! Find me on iTunes "DJ Cam - Geek Chic DJ's" or hear more at www.heydjcam.com/music
I used to LOVE Rap City, the BOX, and Yo! MTv Raps! My cousin and I would tape (that's vhs not dvr kiddies) our favorite videos and then swap them with our friends. Sharing and learning new music. Of course, I was east coast bias and didn't learn much about local bay area rap till later...but that's a mix for another day

Aw afterwork drinks! The best time to unwind, catch up, and even meet new people. It's a mgical time in the life of a young professional because it quickly becomes your first official networking spot. I love afterwork events because they are low key and fun. ENjoy the sounds...

When I came to NYC, one of my main goals was to learn how to house dance. I thought I knew when I came here but in about 5 minutes at my first house club I got schooled real quick! That was six years ago and I am still learning new moves and grooves even now. I also got more into the music and the various soulful sounds. Just that soft warm fun feeling of a good track. Either way, house is all about the music and I will never forget that that. - DJ Cam
Welcome to the first of many mixes from Geek Chic. I am your host, DJ Cam, and this is a little sample of what I have been playing recently. A healthy mix of soulful sounds to ease your workday. Enjoy!
It seems like every time you click refresh on the Nerdist website there is new cool stuff happening. What started as a blog and transitioned into a podcast is now a television pilot, a live performance space at Meltown Comics, a podcasting network, and even a book! Chris Hardwick is here to try to discuss all of that as well as his partnership with Geek Chic and the economic difficulties of doing a podcast live. We even get Chris' opinion on our new Earwolf Live App and a stellar suggestion for a new, simpler term to replace "download." Listen to the episode and, as always, let us know what you think over on the forums!
