How well do podcasts work as a medium for scholarly peer review? In the previous episode, Hannah McGregor and Ian M. Cook provided peer review on Lori Beckstead's draft chapter Context is King: Podcast Packaging and Paratexts. Now we're following up to discuss how well we think this method went. Dario Llinares leads us in a discussion about the affordances and limitations of doing scholarly peer review in the context of a podcast. Jess is also here with recommendations for a peer reviewed and a scholarly podcast. Be sure to listen to Peer Review Podcasting Part 1 on our podcast feed.

Hey there! This week I am accompanied by my dear friend and co-host Matilde! We begin this episode with the tea talk: Red berry tea in black mugs. We break the ice with a series of rapid fire questions about memories, aspirations, lessons, and life. Then, we focus on teamwork; Mati explains how she stays balanced, contributes, and gives us some advice. Next, we get to learn about Mati's strength: How she deals with challenges, compartmentalizes, and gives us a few tips. Afterward, we explore her “woke” character surrounding staying informed, its importance, power and contributions. To continue, Mati shares her testimony of being a good friend. We wrap up the episode with Mati's questions for me, her recommendations, and where to find her.

After a summer break, we are back with a new season of shows for podcast lovers, producers, critics, and academics. And we begin with a bang. Dr Dario Llinares hosts a wide-ranging conversation with one of the foremost academic podcaster working today: Dr Hannah McGregor - Assistant Professor of publishing at Simon Fraser University. On the programme, Hannah discusses her expansive podcast output including Witch, Please, Secret Feminist Agenda and The SpokenWeb Podcast in terms of their development, themes, and aesthetics. Alongside this Hannah explores how podcasts can and should be defined in academic terms, whether they are the focus of media analysis, utilised as a research method, expand the dissemination of research beyond the ivory tower, open avenues for diverse voices in academia, or are deployed as tools of peer review. Hannah is at the forefront of discourses regarding how podcasting can be a challenge to traditional academic structures and this conversation is a must for anyone interested in podcast studies and sound media more broadly. She is an authentic "podcaster" in the very specificity of that media practice and identity.

Episode 3 is a deep dive into Dodie Smith's classic coming-of-age story, I Capture the Castle.Full of summery vibes, starry nights, and swan-filled moats, this novel is bursting with charm. Its witty and insightful narrator, Cassandra, is just one of a brilliant cast of characters who manage to be both hilariously eccentric and utterly believable. Spoilers abound, so be sure to read first and listen after! Show NotesThe version of Clair de Lune by Claude Debussy that we play at the beginning and mid-episode is a public domain recording by the generous and talented Amber Short of PMG Projects.Dodie Smith wrote 4 volumes of autobiography: Look Back with Love (1974), Look Back with Mixed Feelings (1978), Look Back with Astonishment (1979), and Look Back with Gratitude (1985). The excellent small press Slightly Foxed has a lovely edition of Look Back with Love. The Starlight Barking is an absolutely magical sequel to The Hundred and One Dalmatians. Read it now, don't delay! Oh, and don't forget about The Midnight Kittens. And, apologies for saying that the dogs in The Starlight Barking "whoosh." In fact, they "swoosh."We definitely show our ignorance in this episode about Abelard and Heloise, who we later discovered were a famous pair of 12th Century lovers. Read up on their fascinating and tragic story here. In case you are unfamiliar with bull terriers and would like a visual: We mention Canadian hockey commentator Don Cherry in this episode. Since recording, he has been fired from Sportsnet following a hate-filled speech. We are pleased to have "booed" him in our episode. For some context around the comments about Margaret Atwood, check out the incredible podcast Secret Feminist Agenda, specifically episodes 1.8 and 2.1. The host Hannah McGregor excellently articulates some long-standing issues about Atwood as a public figure, and about her work, in a way that really resonated with us. And finally, thanks as always to Rob Muir for our theme music, and all things audio!

Mare is struggling because she betrayed her partner. He didn't want to open their relationship and she did, so she betrayed their agreement and now things are terrible. She feels guilty and ashamed, and wants some thoughts on the whole situation. Anonymous Girl has always considered herself to be straight, but she's getting bored of sex with men, and is starting to feel really curious about sex with people of other genders. Should she go for it? And how? Finally, Sydney Faith Rose recently wrote something amazing about how many women are talking about their anxious attachment, but how maybe instead of seeing it as something to fix, it's instead a huge sign that there are very good reasons to be anxious right now. I explore some of the limitations of attachment theory and offer some questions for us all to sit with. Did you know you can support the show?

News! I am going to be on Secret Feminist Agenda podcast. The episode drops Friday, August 30, 2019 and if you haven't checked out this rad podcast yet, do it here. The next cohort of Power in Pleasure starts October 14th and enrollment is now open. If you'd like to learn more and join in this rich exploration of pleasure, hunger, and desire, head to dawnserra.com/pleasurecourse. To get us started, I came across two threads all about love and the simple ways we care for each other. I'd love to hear from you one the little things people in your life do that make you feel loved and what made you think "yeah, I want this human in my life for awhile". Platonic, creative, sexual, romantic - it doesn't matter. Let's start a love fest. Email me with your story! I also want to take some time to share that a porn performer named Rooster has come forward about abuse they experienced on the set of an Erika Lust film by guest director Olympia de G. I share some thoughts on how we can do better around accountability and complexity, but I think the most important thing is hearing from Rooster and centering their experience. On to your emails. Kate's boyfriend has a coworker who is pretty disrespectful with boundaries, but despite that, had an initially shitty situation turn into something super sexy and fun. Go Kate! Next up, Elizabeth has just recently started dating a couple. Things are going great, but the woman asked Elizabeth not to wear crop tops around their daughter and Elizabeth isn't sure if she's being shamed or not for her clothing. What gives? Finally, CassyBoBassy is curious about body trust. As someone who struggled with dieting and a family who vilified fat bodies, Cassy is starting to see there might be another way to experience pleasure and break-up with shame, but what does it mean to trust your body and how can she feel less lost?

Strap on your space gear and take off your shoes because Joe and Brenna are tackling The Umbrella Academy, Netflix's latest TV adaptation, which is based on the first two volumes of the mega successful comics by Gerard Way (of the band My Chemical Romance) and artist Gabriel Bá. Join the pair as they attempt to unpack the generic apocalyptic threat and similarly drawn characters, discuss why sometimes you should begin with Volume two instead of one and heap praise the show's fun, evocative dance sequence set to a classic 80s tune. Just be warned: if you prefer to stay completely spoiler free, you may need to delay listening to this episode until you're caught up on S1! Plus: In an important extended news segment, Brenna and Joe unpack the recent racist Bookseller article about falling YA book sales and challenge the "youth" reading habits reported in Chris McCrudden's Twitter thread (https://twitter.com/cmccrudden/status/1093874037460226049).

Today Shana and Theresa Girl Talk on the state of #metoo after tuning into 1A's coverage of CBS's handling of the allegations against Les Moonves and how corporations are preparing across the board for continued allegations to surface. Jacinta Bunnell brightens the studio with her creativity and enthusiasm for her feelings. Jacinta is an artist, activist, author and co-founder of B.R.A.W.L. She shares how studying Philosophy helped to shape her ability to think critically and how that in conjunction with taking care of children helped her to see how important it is to feel safe to color outside the lines. Speaking of, she has 4 very important, Queer positive and gender bending, coloring books that are opening up the lines and the boxes that kids have historically found themselves in. She recently began supporting Planned Parenthood through her art activism where she helps young people create art telling their story about how Planned Parenthood has helped them. You can see all that goodness at iluvplannedparenthood on Instagram. Finally, if you need helping sifting through belongings and getting rid of what you no longer need, Jacinta is the Marie Condo of the Hudson Valley. Jenny Shulkin of OoLaLoom joins us and talks about how she got into weaving and the intricacies of weaving and dying. How she is finding her way in her craft staying true to herself and the way she wants to be weaving, creating and learning and evolving the business side of her work, and how she stays motivated and pushes through or gives herself permission to stop when she wants to. Self care today takes us backward, or forward, stuffed animals and how slowing down is important for everything to continue to exist, including YOU! Tune into the podcast Secret Feminist Agenda that Shana recommends if you want to learn more about the art of slow everything and how stuffed animals may save your health and your sanity. Theresa talks about mantra...again, and one of her favorite musicians, Erika Wennerstrom, and how her lyrics have been her mantra when times get tough. Erika has a new-ish album out that is all about self-love, yeah! Go and get it and watch those mantras running in your head. Next week we welcome GT Thomas, musician and artist and Lauree Ostrofsky, Author, Career Coach, Hugger, Founder of Simply Leap, LLC and Hudson Valley Women in Business. Until next week, love yourself and uplift one another.

While attending the Canadian Historical Association annual meeting in Regina I attended a meetup for the Secret Feminist Agenda podcast. Part of this meetup included a launch of the open peer review of the podcast. This experience got me thinking about the scholarship behind podcasting. Can podcasts count as academic work? Do they need to be peer reviewed? What are the logistics behind podcasts being accepted as work as part of tenure or promotion? I would love to hear how other peoples thoughts on podcasts as scholarship, do they count? Leave a comment or send me a message on Twitter. Mentioned in this episode: -Open Peer Review of the Secret Feminist Agenda -NCPH launches review of podcasts and blogs -Tenure and Promotion and the Publicly Engaged Academic Historian (PDF) -The Henceforward
On today's show Shana shares a plethora of new podcast high fives for us to check out. See below! Theresa confesses her failure to stand up to a leering police officer and wonders what that means about her and her place in feminism. In studio guest, Susan Barnett, writer and former journalist, TV News Anchor and host of 51% The Women's Perspective, joins us to talk about her life as a journalist and reporter and how she eventually gave it all up to work on her fiction, first with the publication of her book of short stories, The View From Outside, and now her current fictional work about a traveling con-artist who awakens life in a small town which we hopes is available real soon. Lindsey Mills, touring musician, record label owner and community builder talks about growing up in Florida with parents who nurtured and supported her creative endeavors, what it's like touring and how she keeps community back home. This week's self care begins with Full Moon words of wisdom from Theresa's favorite mystic, MysticMamma. She reminds us to "ground into the fertile Earth that holds us." Shana and Theresa discuss how to do that when the earth is overwhelmed with ticks. Do DEET or not to DEET, that is the question. Help us!!! Next week we sit down with Aja Hudson of Earth Designs Cooperative and Emily Vail, Estuary Watershed Outreach Specialist at New York State Department of Environmental Conservation. We heard music from Shana Falana, Lindsey Mills and a portion of an archived recording from WAMC's 51%. Until next week, love yourself and uplift one another!
