- Society & Culture
Hey everyone! We're just three feminist teens who decided to put some of our conversations out on the internet in case anyone was wondering what we discuss on the regular. The goal of this "stream of consciousness" podcast is just to share our conversations (however informal they may be) about current topics through a feminist lens, and to share 3+ teen voices that want to be heard.

Ep. 2 - Nicki vs. Taylor, Sandra Bland, Same-Sex Marriage
Hey everyone! Yes, we know we're off schedule, but we're workin' on it! In this episode we mainly give you a run down of the recent Nicki Minaj and Taylor Swift twitter "brouhaha". Talking points also include same-sex marriage and what we can do from here on out as a part of or as an ally to the LGBTQ+ community, as well as notify listeners to make themselves aware of #whathappenedtosandrabland.
