Alyson and Anjali Bhimani (actress from Ms. Marvel on Disney+, voice of Symmetra from Overwatch and Rampart from Apex Legends) talk about a scene from The Newsroom (watch the scene here on YouTube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wELqR2F5KjA) starring Emily Mortimer as Mac and Olivia Munn as Sloane. They talk about how not every important scene between two women needs to pass the Bechdel Test and how these two brilliant women show us why. 

P.S. It’s not covered in the episode, but Anjali and Alyson met and became friends in college, and they talk about their careers, love lives and everything in between, just like Sloane and Mac.

Martha Engber lives an exciting double life as a fitness guru by day and author by night. Her creativity is tied to movement, the reason she unintentionally extended her youth activities into adulthood by becoming a fitness instructor the day she graduated from journalism school at the University of Missouri - Columbia. With over 30 years in the fitness industry as a teacher and trainer, she’s seen trends come and go and understands the importance of movement for emotional, mental and intellectual health throughout life, especially for women during hormonal changes.

Her fourth book, “Bliss Road,” will be published 6 June 2023. A memoir about growing up in a neurodiverse family, Martha includes many instances in which movement saved her mental health. Martha invites you to connect via her website: MarthaEngber.com.

The first episode for Literature for Life has Jess talking with junior doctor Krista Bose about the play Death and the King’s Horsemen. We talk about death, tradition, the patriarchy and why learning about cultures that are not your own is so important. We also talk about Krista’s experience as a cancer patient, which she blogs about beautifully on Instagram.

Ria asks: "When you were a kid did you add sugar to every cereal you ate, if so, which sugar?". The gang unexpectedly segue into a discussion about alcohol and alcopops. That's the beauty of Ria's questions.

Ria asks a lot of questions. Kevin made them into a website. The Femme on Collective answer one of Ria's questions every month. This episode they discuss the worst textures they have eaten. What will take the top spot? Let us know what's the worst texture you have ever eaten and we'll discuss in it a future episode.

Alyson and Jen Prince (independent film producer and director) talk about the first sex scene in “Don’t Worry Darling” starring Florence Pugh and Harry Styles and directed by Olivia Wilde. They talk about all the noise surrounding the movie, the sex scenes and how the scene worked or didn’t work for them vis a vis their own experiences and within the larger narrative.

As women filmmakers, Alyson and Jen are always interested in discussing cinema created by other women and “Don’t Worry Darling” gave them plenty to talk about and digest.
