Ep 48: Getting blocked from the Grammys w/ NoItsAshley13
On this episode of Swell Shenanigans Amanda talks with Ashley Leechin, a creator with 1.1 million followers on Tiktok. Ashley was reached out to by the brand Sweety High about "partnering" with the Grammys and the oppertunity to walk their red carpet. After sharing it with her audience, buying her dress, and boarding her flight to Los Angeles, she was told she was not going to attend the award show. "It's Hollywood. It happens all the time."
I reached out to Ashley to talk about being reached out to by Sweety High, her contract, her insane amount of deliverables, and that phone call where she learned she had flown to Los Angeles for nothing.

Ep 47: Ripping apart AI art w/ Renezuo
AND WE'RE BACK! Finally Swell Shenanigans is back from hiatus and not a moment too soon because AI art has gotten out of hand. Renezuo is an artist who like Amanda has alot of feelings about AI art and the disscussions around it.
After we recorded a class action lawsuit was announced against MidJourney and other AI art generators. You can find information about that linked here: https://www.buzzfeednews.com/article/pranavdixit/ai-art-generators-lawsuit-stable-diffusion-midjourney

Ep 45: Ace Fest and Where the Crawdads SIng
Apologies for the audio and video quality on this episode!
On this episode of Swell Shenanigans, I come to you from my dad's house in Orange County to tell you about my time at the Ace Family's Ace Fest this past weekend and talk a bit about how the author of Where the Crawdads Sing is wanted for questioning alongside her husband and stepson in a 1996 televised unaliving of a man in Zambia.

Customer Reviews
New follower. Obsessed.
I am pretty new to the Swell Cult but I recently came across her YouTube channel and literally binged all of her videos within a few days. It almost feels as if we’re just chilling on FaceTime which is oddly comforting. Typically I’m pretty picky whenever it comes to podcasts, but I figured I’d give Swell Shenanigans a shot and I’m so glad I did! I work overnights and I swear these podcasts are the ONLY thing getting me through my shifts now lol. Please make more podcasts Amanda I’m actually begging you lol. No but seriously… If you’re looking for a new podcast to listen to give Swell Shenanigans a shot I promise you won’t be disappointed! Her sense of humor is 10/10 *chef’s kiss*
Here for the evolution
Do we know what this podcast is about? No, but I enjoy tuning in and listening. Great conversations, chaotic energy, in my opinion the only thing missing is an intro jingle.
Cashing in my Swell Entertainment simp card
Love the show! Amanda is a great media scholar! Would love more episodes on the types of Tiktoks (booktok, nuggetok, etc) since there aren't many podcasts about the strange rabbitholes of Tiktok and she could be one of the first to analyze these shenanigans!!
