Speaker 1 (00:01):
On the Bechdel Cast. The questions ask if movies have
women and them, are all their discussions just boyfriends and
husbands or do they have individualism? It's the patriarchy, zephim
Vast start changing with the Bechdel Cast.

Speaker 2 (00:16):
Hello Bechdel Cast listeners.

Speaker 3 (00:19):
How you doing? We've got something to freaking say. Oh
it's winter, you say the time that we go on
tour for some reason, Well, guess what's happening again?

Speaker 2 (00:31):
Happening again? So we're taking the week off from a
normal episode this week, but we wanted to take this
opportunity to plug our little tour coming up in January.
It is a tour up the West coast. So we
are starting with a show in Los Angeles Ever heard
of it? On January nineteenth at four pm. That's a Sunday,

(00:55):
a little Sunday matinee.

Speaker 3 (00:58):
And we're super excited for that show because it's to
be I mean, this show has been on for eight
years now, if you can believe it, and we've never
really done a proper anniversary show, mostly because our anniversary
was during Lockdown, so like our biggest like five year anniversary,
So we wanted to take a moment to celebrate the show,
celebrate all of the whatever bits and weirdness we've done

(01:20):
over the years, and bring on some of our favorite guests.
So this is kind of like a special variety show
that we're putting together, obviously hosted by us. We'll be
doing stand up, and we'll have some of your favorite
longtime guests on the show that are local to Los
Angeles obviously so true, so performing and then doing bits
with us and talking about their favorite movies. But if

(01:42):
you're a fan of the show and you live in
the area, it'll be a really good time. I feel
like we've never gotten to like properly celebrate the show
with you, So we're super pumped. But Caitlin, if you
don't live in LA all is not lost.

Speaker 2 (01:57):
It's very true because the show will be live stream.
So the live show is in LA a Dynasty typewriter,
But there's an option to buy a live stream ticket
and you can see it live stream. Usually it's like
available for like a week after that, So even if
you can't see the live stream as it's happening, you
can still buy a ticket and then have access to

(02:18):
that video content. Yes that you will.

Speaker 3 (02:21):
I believe it will be available for yet the next week.
And if you haven't seen it, if you haven't streamed
a show from the Dynasty Typewriter set up before, it's gorgeous.
It's like you'll be there laughing your little head off yourselves.
And if you are going to be physically there at
all of these story dates, we will of course always
be there with exclusive merch, exclusive posters and you can

(02:44):
come meet us and hang out after the show. But
that's not all. There's more shows to be announced.

Speaker 2 (02:50):
It's so true. The next one is on January twenty
third in San Francisco. It's a part of Sketch Fest.
It's at Club Fugazi, where we were at last year.
If you came to the sketch Fest show in San
Francisco last year, so beautiful. And this is going to
be part of our famed Shrectanic tour. And we are

(03:11):
covering for this show Titanic. Yes, you don't want to
miss it. It's been eighty four years, it's been eight
years of the show. You just got to come and
see all of that.

Speaker 3 (03:23):
Yeah, we're super excited. I mean, we took the and
more specifically, Caitlin took the Shrektannic tour to Europe last spring,
I wasn't able to be there, so I'm triple stoked
to be doing this because I never got I bought,
as you know, Calin, I ingested in a Rose to
Whitpy cater Etsy reproduction. I paid in four and everything,

(03:46):
and I never got to wear it. So I'm so excited.
And we just love sketch Fest. Shout out to sketch
Fest Bay area heads, please come out. It's going to
be big and goofy, and if you've seen our shows before,
it'll be like that but even better. And then finally,
we are returning to Portland, Oregon. Ever heard of it
to another favorite theater of ours, Curious Comedy Theater on

(04:08):
January twenty sixth at seven pm. An extension of the
Shrektannic tour. But Caitlin, something's different.

Speaker 2 (04:14):
Something's different. It's not Titanic this time. It's the Shrek
part of Shark Tannic, and we're covering Shrek and so
it's an entirely different show. And here's the thing. It's
also going to be live streamed, So if you can't
be there in person and you want to see Shrek Tannic,
you can buy the live stream ticket and have access

(04:35):
to that same thing for like up to a week after,
So even if you can't make the live stream as
it's happening, you can access it after the fact.

Speaker 3 (04:44):
And same deal. I'll finally get to, you know, stretch
out the Fiona costam so carefully invested in. We can't wait. Yeah,
it's going to be a blast, and we hope to
be touring more throughout next year, but for now, well,
