FBF - Plus-Size News Spotlight: What's Been Missing From Fashion

the master of Wreck It which we will be submitting to Roverfest this year. 

Wreck It (featuring MattOMatic And Thinx)

We sat down with with Miki Agrawal, Thinx’s founder and CEO, and author of the book, "Do Cool Sh*t: Quit Your Day Job, Start Your Own Business, and Live Happily Ever After," to find out just what inspired her to get into the period panty biz in the first place. 

The Women Promoted on This Episode:
"Today I would like to honor my girlfriend, Allie Hoffman," says Miki. "She started an incredible movement called Gender Proud with the transgender model Gina Rosero, which is about transgender rights and how it's okay to be who you are. She fights for women's rights in the most beautiful ways, and I want to see people like her thrive."

Episode 24: How Miki Agrawal Is Using Period Panties to Fight the Patriarchy

This week, Dahlia and Amy discuss the latest in our problematic faves: Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie's transphobic remarks. Bitch Media's Global Feminism Writing Fellow, Aqdas Aftab's piece, "Reading Chimamanda Adichie Today: On Racism & Transphobia in Feminism," examines how Adichie's transphobic remarks are within the legacy of feminism itself and what that means for an intersectional, inclusive feminist movement. Thembani Mdluli's "When Callouts Become Anti-Black: On Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie’s Transphobia, Disposability Culture & British Colonialism" is a thoughtful piece on what it means to "call-in" our own. Dahlia and Amy also talk about the latest news around former Thinx CEO Miki Agrawal who has been accused of sexual harassment and the disconnect of a company that profits off of a so-called feminist ethos but does not treat their employees with the same values they espouse. Plus: this episode's Mr. Toad Trump's Wild Ride looks at the House hearings about possible collusion between the Trump camp and Russia with head of FBI James Comey testifying and  the administration's proposed budget cuts.

“You see these clots and it looks like a vagina booger” - Forest

“Thats the point of destigmatizing these things. You have a right to explore your body and not fucking feel weird about it.” - Teagan

“You shouldn’t feel ashamed and alienated from your period. It’s not happening to you, it’s a part of you” - Teagan

Whether you care about the planet, what you put in your body, or you're sick of throwing money away on disposable menstrual products, this week's episode is for you. We tried period underwear, reusable pads, and organic tampons, and we even rated them (by a blood drop rating, naturally). Pop out those tampons and pop in your earbuds. It's time for Vicious Cycle.

We do a live feed on our facebook for those that want to be a part of the discussion, and to humanize the idea of a podcast. We're not sitting in a small room with a mic, usually we're drinking wine in bed and having real chats because that is real life and we want to make real life accessible to you in all formats. 

We're not just a podcast; we're a community. And we're badass.

We are Kr8trfase...
the spawning of #Metal, #Grunge and #GothRock....
