Homebrewed Feminism

It's our season finale! We would like to thank all of our listeners for supporting us through another season. This episode is dedicated to you. We're having some fun with this topic: women and swearing. There seems to be a lot of shame directed at women when they swear. Let's break this down. Join us as we feature the Vocal Fries Podcast and drink delicious craft beer from Beavertown Brewery.

THE PENULTIMATE EPISODE or if you're basic like Amanda the second to last episode of Season 2 is here! We're drinking some delicious beer from Brew York and Harviestoun. We get some life updates from Amanda & Becki, but most importantly for the first time on Homebrewed Feminism, we have an episode specifically to help the White People. Even if you are the most Anti-racist of the Anti-racists you probably have some blind spots. If you're thinking "I could definitely be doing more with my Anti-racism" then you're like us! Featuring the Facing Ourselves Podcast this week we learn what kinds of racism there are so we can start identifying it and doing the work. There are some awesome recommendations at the end of this one so don't miss it!

Ever watched a romantic comedy and cringed at the blatant sexism and cisgender/heterosexual/white/middle class focus?

Even when you love romantic comedies, you're allowed to criticise them. Features this week include the Vulva La Revolution podcast, Black Sheep Brewery and Jumpship Brewing.

This week, join Amanda and Becki as they circle back to masculinity. Toxic masculinity is popular in the media and mainstream feminism, however, it's time to consider 'mindful masculinity' and what that means. In a world that is hyper-focused on men as strong, aggressive providers, join the hosts as they discuss a fraction of the problems associated with this gender-based expectation.

Episode 3 is here and we are not playing around this time. We're discussing the recent anti-trans bills hitting US state legislatures. Join us as we break down the fallacy in these lawmaker's claims of cis-girl protection. Don't use our gender as an excuse for your transphobia. TW we do mention suicide so please take care when listening.

And we're back! Season 2 Episode 1 is here and we've gone rogue. A new season means some small changes to our podcast, but all good changes we think. For our first episode back we are going straight for the beer industry. Join Amanda and Becki as they discuss the recent Me Too Movement currently rocking craft beer and hear some fun recommendations at the end. As always they are drinking delish craft beer if not brewed by women then at least from Breweries that employ women. Let's dig in and learn.
