Look at this straight up celebrity who totally agreed to talk to me! Amber Nash, the voice of Pam Poovey on Archer and a renowned improviser, joined me to talk about improv and gender, learning how to be body positive from fictional characters, and exactly what time of the day you should take your baths. Other topics include how improv is like psychology, what it means to improvise like a man, and the degree to which playing a character known for saying incredibly filthy things might upset your mother. Amber is delightful! Here are some links!
First, on gender and improv, here's a three-part series from The Mary Sue on "how funny women navigate gender on stage." Read them all: part one, part two, and part three.
I finally found the Lupita Nyong'o interview where she talks about motion capture! It's pretty brief, but it's in this video.
If you'd like to learn more about the history of Adult Swim and the role shows like Sealab 2021 played in building an audience for adult cartoons, check out this neat oral history.
I tried to find something good to link here about Pam Poovey as a fat icon but literally everything I found was written by a dude; feel free to send me any relevant links and I'll add them in here!
Finally, I promised to link through to my Sad Christmas Jams playlist, so here it is.

IIIIIII'MMMMM SIIIIIICCCKKKKK and hoo boy can you ever hear it in this episode. Sorry for the garbage voice this weeks folks, and also for the very short episode, but for all my whining and rasping, I'm actually delighted to be sharing with you the new theme for all of our winters: make baby cozy. Coined by former guest of the podcast Baby Groot, this phrase is a reminder to treat yourself with tenderness and care, and to ask for what you need. It's also tacit permission to baby yourself, to be a baby, to let go, at least for a little while, of whatever kind of hardness adulthood has brought you. As Mary Oliver says, "You only have to let the soft animal of your body / love what it loves."
Obviously making baby cozy is a close relative of hygge, so here's a cute little piece about why hygge is a low-maintenance and low-cost form of self-care. (I do not endorse Self, but this piece is nice.)
Everything is going to be cute! This is a cute Bustle article about making your home cozy on a budget!
Okay, I gotta put something at least a little critical in here, so this is an interesting article thinking about why Americans got so into hygge, including an important consideration of how the fetishization of sheltering and enclosing might tie into Northern European anti-immigration sentiments.
And finally, because why not, a scholarly article interrogating whether knitting and other fibre arts are a viable form of feminist political action!

Content warning for discussions of chronic pain and illness, drug addiction, and cancer.
I jokingly tweeted a screenshot of the audio file for this episode with the caption "The telltale shape of a hard-to-record minisode." I was referring to the long, conspicuous gaps that betray how hard I find it to talk about some topics. Episode 2.3 "On Being Seen" had a similar shape, pre-edit. The hard episodes, for me, are usually the personal ones. And this is a personal one. I'm talking about pain and how it links to trauma; and I'm talking about the incredible work of disability studies scholars and disability justice activists. And because I'm talking about a bunch of really great writing, here are a bunch of links:
I recommend everything by Leah Lakshmi Piepzna-Samarasinha, especially their newest book of poetry, Tonguebreaker
I didn't mention this in the episode, but I also recommend The Empathy Exams by Leslie Jamison, which thinks in really interesting ways about the difference (or lack of difference) between "real" and "imagined" pain
Here are the pieces I read as recommended on Twitter. As usual, if there's something you want to read but it's paywalled, just let me know!
"Pain Scale" by Eula Bliss
An excerpt of Opium Eater: The New Confessions by Carlyn Zwarenstein
"Recovering a Cripistemology of Pain: Leaky Bodies, Connective Tissue, and Feeling Discourse" by Alyson Patsavas
"The Bodymind Problem and the Possibilities of Pain" by Margaret Price
And here are the things recommended on Twitter than I haven't had a chance to read yet:
Ask Me About My Uterus: A Quest to Make Doctors Believe in Women's Pain by Abby Norman
The Rejected Body: Feminist Philosophical Reflections on Disability by Susan Wendell
Sick: A Memoir by Porochista Khakpour (but here's a great review)
"Face of Rhythm" by Kim Hyesoon

Hold onto your hats it's a LIVE EPISODE! This one was recorded at the University of Alberta, as part of the Canadian Literature Centre's Brown Bag Lunch series. I'm talking to the brilliant Chelsea Vowel, aka âpihtawikosisân. The ostensible topic of the conversation is Refuse: CanLit in Ruins (which I co-edited and to which Chelsea contributed), but we also talk about Indigenous futurisms and social media and lawsuits and how hard it is getting onto high chairs. And here are some links!
If you haven't already, you need to read Chelsea's book, Indigenous Writes, and check out her very excellent podcast, Métis in Space.
A lot of the points Chelsea makes could be paired with blog posts she's written, like "Reconciliation in the time of pipelines" and "A little peek at what I've been writing" (an example of Métis futurisms) and "A storm of lawsuits." Oh, and if you want to do something about that lawsuit she's writing about, here's the GoFundMe where you can do that.
If you'd like to learn more about Indigenous futurisms, Lindsay Nixon has a wonderful piece on "Visual Cultures of Indigenous Futurisms"
For a great summary of how settlers' expectations of Indigenous literature put authors in an impossible bind, read Alicia Elliott's "Not Your Noble Savage: On Literary Colonialism and Native Writers"
For more on what it was like watching the "appropriation prize" unfold in real time, read Scaachi Koul's "On Glibness And Diversity In Canadian Media"
And finally, here's an article about a former poet laureate of Quebec being accused of plagiarizing Maya Angelou, Dylan Thomas, and Tupac Shakur!

This episode is the beginning of a mini-cluster or mini-arc that will conclude season three of Secret Feminist Agenda. The coming episodes will focus on other feminist podcasters and/or public scholars, starting with this week's incredible guest, Jimanekia Eborn, creator and host of the podcast Trauma Queen. We talk about podcasting, sex education, respecting your guests, paying artists, and a whole lot more. Actually, we mostly talk about the silent meditation retreat Jimanekia was about to go on, which I found completely terrifying. It's a real emotional journey. And here are some links!
I refer to a conversation that I was pretty sure I heard on Call Your Girlfriend, and I was right! Specifically this episode, specifically the conversation with Esmé Weijun Wang.
That part where Jimanekia is talking about Jessamyn and I get really excited? That's Jessamyn Stanley, iconic body positive yoga activist and educator. You can hear her episode of Trauma Queen here.
In case you missed it, the conversation I reference about consent-based interviewing styles is from Episode 3.2 Buffy Sainte-Marie and Music Journalism with Andrea Warner
Finally, the podcasts Jimanekia recommends are The Read, The Dollop, The Quietest Revolution, American Sex, Small Doses with Amanda Seales, and of course Oprah's SuperSoul Conversations.

This episode was actually recorded in early May, and here it is over four months later, FINALLY seeing the light of day, and I'm so delighted because Okka–poet, writer, and artist–is a goddamn delight. But don't just take my word for it. Listen for yourself, and then check out some of these exciting and also very extensive links:
First off, you should definitely check out all of Okka's work, including Rope, Indigenous Species, Stairs and Whispers: D/deaf and Disabled Poets Write Back, and her performance Annah: Nomenclature.
You can also find her work in issue 24 of Uncanny Magazine, "Disabled People Destroy Science Fiction"!
And here's Katie Lewis Hood's splendid review of Indigenous Species!
The conference that had Okka in town was HASTAC 2019, "Decolonizing Technologies, Reprogramming Education"
Okka mentioned the 2016 conference Archives Matter: Queer, Feminist and Decolonial Encounters
I talk quite a lot in this episode about Lily Cho's remarkable research project Mass Capture (and gosh I hope I don't misrepresent it!)
Oh gosh, and we talk a lot about French painter Paul Gauguin, particularly his painted Annah the Javanese. Okka references the books Paul Gaugain: An Erotic Life and The Way to Paradise as well as the biopics The Wolf at the Door and Paradise Found, starring Donald and Kiefer Sutherland, respectively.
You can learn more about the Dutch East India Company here!
We discuss the incredible work of Lydia X. Z. Brown (apologies for getting their middle initial wrong!), the episode of Witch, Please we recorded with them, as well as Rowling's article on "Illness and Disability" in the wizarding world.
We also talk about environmental racism, the over-harvesting of white sage, and how white witches appropriate Indigenous practices.
And finally, here are all of the books that I caught references to:
Tina M. Campt, Listening to Images
Saidiya Hartman, Wayward Lives, Beautiful Experiments: Intimate Histories of Social Upheaval
Ann Laura Stoler, Race and the Education of Desire: Foucault's History of Sexuality and the Colonial Order of Things and Along the Archival Grain: Epistemic Anxieties and Colonial Common Sense
Slamet Thohari, Disability In Java: Contesting Conceptions of Disability In Javanese Society after the Suharto Regime
Leah Lakshmi Piepzna-Samarasinha, Care Work: Dreaming Disability Justice
Jasbir K. Puar, The Right to Maim: Debility, Capacity, Disability
Mel Y. Chen, Animacies: Biopolitics, Racial Mattering, and Queer Affect
Simone Brown, Dark Matters: On the Surveillance of Blackness
Sara Ahmed, Living a Feminist Life
Safiya U. Noble, Algorithms of Oppression: How Search Engines Reinforce Racism
Robert McRuer, Crip Theory: Cultural Signs of Queerness and Disability
Tobin Siebers, Disability Theory

This week I sat down to talk with Emma Cooper, creator of the comedy show Rape is Real & Everywhere, which highlights the comedy and storytelling of rape and sexual assault survivors. I had a chance to see the show during the Vancouver Fringe Festival this year, and then got to sit down with Emma to talk about the cathartic power of comedy, burnout in activist work, the challenges and rewards of producing a show that touches viewers so deeply, getting past our desire to be good, and a whole lot more. Speaking of more, here are some links!
First off, here's the link to Emma's show on November 23 in Vancouver!
And here's the Facebook event for the Secret Feminist Agenda meet-up on November 8. You can find the rest of the events and buy tickets and passes at vanpodfest.ca.
Emma mentions a bunch of comedians, including Alex Sparling, Amber Harper-Young, Heather Jordan Ross, Randee Neumeyer, and Ryan Lachance. You should go follow them all!
They also recommend Good One: A Podcast About Jokes
Some of the books I mentioned were I Hope We Choose Love by Kai Cheng Thom and The Witches Are Coming by Lindy West.
I also talked about the use of photography by the Khmer Rouge and my sad dissertation.

This is a slightly unusual episode, inspired by an email I got from Plan International Canada about International Day of the Girl which is, in fact, today! October 11! They shared with me some data they've gathered about how girls picture themselves (or don't picture themselves) in leadership positions, and guess what, I've got some thoughts about it. You know what else I've got? SOME LINKS:
The Vancouver Podcast Festival runs from November 7-10; the Secret Feminist Agenda meet-up will be part of the Podfair on November 8.
My conversation with Lindy West is scheduled for December 3! Don't forget to pre-order her new book, The Witches Are Coming.
On the topic of imposter syndrome and "confidence," read "Impostor syndrome is a response to a world that doesn't believe in women"
And check out Clare's blog post, "A Killjoy Survival Kit for the Secret Feminist Agenda" and don't forget to send in your own survival kits!
