Nel progetto visionario del barone De Coubertin - restituire la vita ai Giochi di Olimpia dell'Antica Grecia - le donne non erano previste. E così, in quella prima edizione del 1896, le donne non c'erano. Riuscirono a farsi aprire le porte parzialmente nel 1900, solo nel tennis, nel croquet, nella vela e nel golf. Nel 1908 salirono a 36 su un totale di 2008 atleti, ma sempre in modo non ufficiale. Nel 1912 poterono gareggiare nel nuoto. Ma l'atletica continuava a respingerle. L'embargo sessista sarebbe caduto solo nel 1928 grazie a una battaglia condotta da Alice Milliat.

Temper tantrums, clingy kids and toilet dodgers it's all going down on this week's episode of Honey You're Ruining Our Kid. What do you do when your child seems able to behave himself everywhere but at home? Many children save the emotional and often times destructive behaviour for the safety of their own houses. Street angel, house devil is a common phrase for a reason. Seeing your kid so angry that they are a danger to themselves and you can be very scary. Are our kids hurting us intentionally? Jarlath wonders why we have the little rascals in the first place. How do you interrupt this behaviour pattern and put an end to the head melting tantrums . Why are they acting out? Tina and Jarlath try to puzzle out what's behind this behaviour and how they can help this mom get her boy to treat his family the way he treats his friends. Clinginess is the strangest behaviour to understand. What do you do with a kid who never listens and drives you crazy refusing to allow you to leave their sight! Also often times parents find themselves feeling jealous when it's the other parent the child is pining for. But when the clinginess is out of control and the child is getting way too upset in your absence, what can you do? This week we tease out this question. Tina laughs about how important the "Owl Babies" book is in helping children understand that our parents always come back. She also reveals how she's never been able to read this story all the way through without crying. Tina and Jarlath find it hard to agree on the final question. A mom is struggling to get her stepson to wee in the toilet. Jarlath comes up with a clever way of enticing the boy to aim with success, however Tina worries that maybe the stepmom is being too demanding of the young lad. Is wanting her home to be perfect getting in the way of their bonding time? Has any man ever successfully peed in the toilet? Is this just a pointless task and an utter waste of her energy? Jarlath thinks most men know what they are doing, Tina lives with Jarlath and absolutely disagrees. Please send in your questions and ideas to honeyyouareruiningourkid@gmail.com Have great week!

Janes, which is co-written by past Speech Bubble guest Cecil Castellucci. But these days he is best known as one half of the immensely popular Cartoonist Kayfabe YouTube channel with Ed Piskor (Hip-Hop Family Tree, X-Men Grand Design, and the upcoming Red Room) Though based in Pittsburgh, prior to COVID-19 and the proximity precautions that come with it, Jim was scheduled to attend The Toronto Cartoon Art Festival in May 2020 in support of Street Angel: Deadliest Girl Alive from Image Comics and The P.L.A.I.N. Janes from Little Brown and Company, but formerly published by DC Comics' now defunct Minx imprint. There, he was going to surprise attendees with his latest project, Octobriana 1976 -- the world's first black light comic book -- with AdHouse Books. In light of the pandemic, Jim has switched gears and he is now funding Octobriana 1976 on Kickstarter from now until June 18, 2020 at 5 p.m. EST. He comes to Speech Bubble in support of Octobriana where we talk about Octobriana's strange and controversial origin story, why Jim decided to print this comic with fluorescent ink and why rebellious women are characters he keeps coming back to. We also talk about his collaborators: Shelly Bond, Cecil Castellucci and Brian Maruca, while tracing his journey from self-taught comics fan to a professional cartoonist who has taught others at the School of Visual Art. For all you Cartoonist Kayfabe fans, we talk about the way the channel has suddenly become important to the larger comic book community and some very high-profile creators. We get behind what fans of the channel know as "The Cartoonist Kayfabe Bump" and Jim talks about his strategies for back issue diving and he speculates with Aaron about what the comic industry may look like post-pandemic.

Like many of his fellow Pittsburgher cartoonists, Jim Rugg’s work lives at a fascinating cross section of mainstream and indie comics culture. It’s a phenomenon Rugg and cohost Ed Piskor happily explore in their YouTube series, Cartoonist Kayfabe, which breaks down the earlier days of Wizard Magazine, issue by issue. His work, too, is the product of a confluence of distinct influences, from the skateboarding and martial arts of Street Angel, to the blacksplotation films and pulp comics of Afrodisiac. On a recent visit to his hometown, Rugg joined us to discuss teaching comics, choosing projects and why Rob Liefeld is important.

Es 80igert sehr. Dreamworks/Netflix hat sich überlegt die alte She-Ra Serie wieder aufzulegen. Was kann eigentlich eine Serie versprechen, die nur zum Verkauf von Actionfiguren kreiert wurde? Eine ganze Menge, wenn es nach Clemens geht. Eine nostalgische Ästhetik gibt es außerdem beim neuen Teaser von Stranger Things Season 3. Jedoch kann nicht einmal der altbekannte Synthesizer wirkliche Vorfreude erzeugen. Warum ...

THE FLOOR’S AN OCEAN AND THIS WAVE IS BREAKING This podcast was completed three days ago and do you know what held it up? Writing this bloody blurb! Please submit your blurbs for future use via email so this sort of thing need never happen again. It looks like SILENCE!#250 ushered in a bold new age for the pod pals as they once again piece together an episode at free moments in their very busy, extremely important lives. There was chat about The Fourth Of May With You, the burgeoning Evil Of The Minibeast, Bob Mortimer and Maria Bamford’s recent podcast appearances and the forthcoming shows by Fraser Geesin, Matt Banks and Dunce Tank. SILENCE! Because The Film’s Started brings Avengers: Affinity Friends and Brawl in Cell Block 99. Then from Outpost Reviewniverse we have The Prisoner, Legionnaires and Tales Designed To Thrizzle as read to Little Barry Lactus. The Free Comic Book Day offerings of James Bond, Tank Girl, Street Angel’s Dog, 2000AD Re-Gene, World’s Greatest Cartoonists and DC Nation. Finally, Batman, The Avengers, Eternity Girl and The One. Probably something else too but I’ve had it with writing this stupid blurb, time to set this pod free and watch it soar freely into the ears of our three or four listeners.

They begin with Star Hawks, Vol. 1: 1977-1978, a new collection of Gil Kane and Ron Goulart's classic newspaper strip. As the guys discuss, this isn't the first time that Star Hawks has been collected, but this new release from IDW's Library of American Comics imprint is probably one of the best. Next, they turn to Street Angel: After School Kung Fu Special (Image Comics). This is more of the Street Angel fun you've come to expect from Jim Rugg and Brian Maruca. Fans of action comics, especially the old 1970s style martial arts type, will appreciate this one-shot. Finally, the Two Guys wrap up with Simon Spurrier and Jonas Goonface's Godshaper #1 (BOOM! Studios). As with other Spurrier creations, the premise of this title is rather complicated, but it's not too top-heavy. The creators are able to pull off this inaugural issue with a satisfying coherency.

Listen to our Pre-Recorded program on December 13th at 7:00pm CST at Blog Talk Radio. Guest: Robert Batista. "During the month of December, please enjoy these previously recorded shows...The Best of 2016. We will return live every Tuesday night beginning January 3, 2017. Enjoy the Holidays!" Our guest and author, Robert Batista will share his passion and journey to curb and stop gun violence through his writing and novellas called Street Angel and The City Game. He will talk about the “iron pipeline” and the collateral impact of gun violence. Gun violence is not the answer to disputes, disagreements, and differences. Robert will discuss non-violent approaches to dealing with these differences and share his stories. Robert Batista grew up in Crown Heights, Brooklyn. After attending Brooklyn College, he enlisted in the U.S. Air Force. While stationed at Edwards Air Force Base in Southern California, he began his writing career; first with poetry, then short stories. In 1992 he founded Word Is Bond Press and began writing and publishing positive, uplifting stories for teenagers and young adults. His books ‘The City Game’, ‘Street Angel’, and ‘Brooklyn Story’ were picked up by the NYC Department Of Education, and Robert’s powerful message of self-determination and non-violence is now required reading in schools throughout the country. He is currently working on his new young adult novel, ‘Crisis At Central High’.  

In this episode, the independent and insightful Jim Rugg stops in to discuss his long running webcomic, "Street Angel", the story of the deadliest girl alive- an orphan skateboarder named Jesse Sanchez. He answers listener questions, describes the concept of "narrative collapse", shares about his extensive collection of oddball indie comics from the 80s, works in ballpoint pen, and gives significance to the career of Vanilla Ice.

Other topics include Robin’s pitch for a Street Angel game, games being systems that run on the software of us, what producers actually do, how to design for and instill empathy in players, fostering a genuine non-adversarial connection between players, how to reward contemplative play, games that celebrate mistakes, why aren’t we making games about being loved, the future of AI and storytelling, and how to stave off creative starvation.

The Two Guys with PhDs are back for another Publisher Spotlight, and this time they turn their attention to recent releases from AdHouse Books. On this episode, they look at the publisher's 2015 catalog (so far), but first Derek talks briefly with AdHouse's founder and publisher, Chris Pitzer. He gives the lowdown on the origins of the press, how he translated his designer skills into publishing acumen, the process of artist acquisition, and some of his most notable (and unlikely) publishing successes over the years. After that, the guys plunge into their discussion of the five books that have come out -- or are about to come out -- from AdHouse this year. They start with the new edition of Jim Rugg's Street Angel. Both Derek and Andy Kunka had already discussed last year's Street Angel when they had Rugg on for an interview earlier this year, but this new edition gives the reader a different color experience. Whereas the earlier book contained black and white art, this one sets the illustrations on pink paper, giving Jesse "Street Angel" Sanchez's adventures a whole new feel as she keeps the world safe from ninja gangs, evil geologists, nepotism, and math homework. Next, the Two Guys discuss a truly offbeat book from Eric Haven. Ur is a collection of strange, absurd, and hilarious short comics reminiscent of the works of Michael Kupperman, Evan Dorkin, and Ryan Browne. Highlights include the heroics of Bed Man, Dream Lord of the Night Sky, and the demented adventures of everyman Race Murdock. Without question, this is one of the guys' reading highlights of the week. Next, they turn to the fourth issue of Ethan Rilly's Pope Hats. The guys bring different perspectives to Rilly's work, with Derek having read the previous issues and this being Andy's first exposure to the series. Fans of Pope Hats will find this a different kind of issue. The story of Frances and Vickie is temporarily put on hold while Rilly presents many of his previously published short comics, including the meditative "Stained Glass" and the psychologically moving "The Nest." After that, the guys look at Sophie Goldstein's novella-length work, The Oven. This is an alternate world, post-apocalyptic narrative about living off the grid and how empowering and life-changing such a move can be. Goldstein's simple, evenly paced art reveals  deeper levels of understanding than its small page count might suggest. Finally, Derek and Andy wrap up their spotlight with a discussion of Kathryn and Stuart Immonen's soon-to-be-released Russian Olive to Red King. Much like The Oven, this is a relationship story that unfolds slowly, allowing character to develop in organic and natural ways. In addition to the art, one of the most striking aspects of the book is it's last third, composed almost entirely of text. The guys note that while prose-heavy narrative can be a potential put-off in comics, Kathryn Immonen handles the story brilliantly, using the text to add depth to its more stoic art. Andy declares this one of his favorite books of 2015 so far. In fact, you could say something similar about all of this year's AdHouse books taken together.

Andy and Derek are happy to have on the podcast the multifaceted Jim Rugg, whose new printing of Street Angel (created with Brian Maruca) was just released by AdHouse. The guys talk with Jim about the significance of the new printing -- a colorful discussion -- as well as the book's protagonist Jesse Sanchez, an "orphan of the streets and skateboarding daughter of justice" who "fights a never ending battle against the forces of evil, nepotism, ninjas, and hunger." The artist discusses the title's early days at Slave Labor Graphics as a serial and its final issue as the launching pad for another Rugg/Maruca creation, Alan "Afrodisiac" Driesler, the mysterious, irresistible, smooth dark chocolate brother of the streets who fights to protect his turf and his ladies. And of course, it's inevitable that the guys get into a discussion of 1970s culture and comics, including kung fu, TV cop shows, blaxploitation films, and Big Jim action figures. Derek and Andy also talk with Jim about his work on other titles, including Supermag (AdHouse), The Plain Janes (DC/Minx), and his art for titles as diverse as The Guild, Adventure Time, and Henry and Glenn Forever and Ever. It's a fun conversation, one with as much savvy and street smarts as the characters who populate Jim's stories.

Jim Rugg joins us to expound on Street Angel from AdHouse Books, Ed Piskor's Hip Hop Family Tree, Rob Liefeld, Brian Maruca, Gary Groth, Comics Comics (Frank Santoro, Dan Nadel, Tim Hodler, and more), PictureBox, Chris Pitzer, Supermag, Boulet, Mike Mignola and the Hellboy Goes to Hell Artist's Edition from IDW, Afrodisiac, Usamu Tezuka's Book of Human Insects from Vertical, Cable: Blood and Metal, Brian Lee O'Malley's Seconds, Jane, the Fox, and Me by Fanny Britt and Isabelle Arsenault from Groundwood Books, Josh Bayer, Jason Karns and FUKITOR, Organ fanzine, SDCC, Tom Scioli, Fort Thunder, Copacetic Comics, Paul Pope, Pittsburgh Comic Con, Robin Williams, Wally Wood, social media, artistic influences, CAB, Howtoons [Re]ignition by Fred Van Lente, Tom Fowler, and Jordie Bellaire from Image, Magnus: Robot Fighter from Fred Van Lente and Cory Smith from Dynamite!, the Annihilation Omnibus and Guardians of the Galaxy, Farel Dalrymple's The Wrenchies from :01 First Second, and a whole mess more!

We usually follow up a spotlight episode with either a Previews exploration or a free-for-all. But this week is different because Jim Rugg himself stopped by our center-of-the-earth recording studio to drop some truth about Street Angel and his career.Jim is one of the most flat-out creative talents working in comics and design today, and we couldn't be more thrilled to bring you this wide-ranging conversation. His latest book is a re-release of his first published work: Street Angel. It's available from Ad House Books and finer comic shops everywhere.

The publisher of this week's book, Adhouse, suggests that book, Street Angel, be filed under these categories: comedy, poverty, hero, and kung fu. Those terms both entirely describe and woefully undersell the breadth of pure comic booking contained in this 10th anniversary hardcover reprinting of Jim Rugg and Brian Maruca's breakout hit. The title character is homeless teenage girl Jesse Sanchez; she sleeps in abandoned buildings and prowls the streets of Wilkesborough on her skateboard, keeping it safe from ninjas, mad scientists, demons, time-displaced Spanish conquerors, more ninjas, and (with the help of an aged but still bad motherSHUT YOUR MOUTH Afrodisiac) racist gun-toting rednecks. This book may be Rugg's first but it still hits like a 100-megaton bomb of experimentation in the name of homage and homage in the name of truth.

This is episode 7 of Boing Boing's, Tell Me Something I Don't Know. It's an interview podcast featuring artists, writers, filmmakers, and other creative people discussing their work, ideas, and the reality/business side of how they do what they do. Jeff Smith began writing, drawing, and publishing Bone in 1991, through his company, Cartoon Books. He championed self-publishing in the 1990s with other independent cartoonists known as the Spirits of Independents and continues to self-publish through Cartoon Book. Since 1991, Bone has become a world-wide phenomenon, published in nearly 30 languages. In 2005, Scholastic reissued Bone in color through their Graphix imprint, inspiring an entire generation of young cartoonists who found his work through traditional book stores, comic book shops, schools, and libraries. He followed the Tolkien-esque, Bone, with Shazam! The Monster Society of Evil (DC Comics) and RASL (Cartoon Books) - a sci-fi noir about a dimension-hopping art thief. Smith recently announced his next project, Tüki Save the Humans, about the first human to leave Africa during the Ice Age.
