“…on The Barry Gibb Talk Show!” (Full permission/encouragement to watch those SNL skits before you listen to this.)
In this episode, which was originally slated to be SBD’s first, Sam and Rachel talk “comfort aliens,” butch lesbian women’s **alleged** cultural marginalization (academics assure us it’s “alleged”), and read from beautiful lesbian texts to set forth our hopes for this here project.
A TRIGGER WARNING of sorts, particularly for ~45:00-60:00 but *not exactly* those timestamps, and potentially elsewhere: There’s a lot of body talk in this episode. Bodies are discussed with infinite love for all, and not in a way we ourselves thought prohibitively hard to listen to — but perhaps listen with a spot of caution if you’ve experienced sh*tty sh*t from people’s or society’s treatment of your body. (And/or listen with righteous anger if MFers have made you feel like anything at all is wrong with you.) Sam and I both discuss sexual experiences that were directly or indirectly traumatic (not, however, depressingly so much as analytically), and we talk about boobs, chests, and clits.
