Indoorswomen

Some geeky news, some silliness, and our creative process. We both write for fun and profit, and have picked up some tips and tricks along the way. Are you mildly curious about writing? Are you an established writer looking for tips to improve your craft?

Our conversation is full of advice from professionals and friends, and peppered with our usual geeky references.

As always, our head-nodding intro/outro music is "We are Highscore" by Krackatoa.

*Note: we apologize for a few small audio issues - Jen was having microphone/audio troubles, but it is totally listenable (better quality than our old google hangout casts!)*

Today we talk conventions (San Diego Comic Con, Denver Comic Con, Fanime, Silicon Valley Comic Con), geek news (Simon Pegg in the Ready Player One movie?).

We also talk a little bit about attending Felicia Day's book signing! Embrace your weird!

The main event for this podcast is our love of Hayao Miyazaki movies. We discuss our favorites: Princess Mononoke and Laputa: Castle in the Sky, particularly their themes and the contrasts between them (and why we recommend them wholeheartedly!).

As usual, our awesome intro/outro music is "We are Highscore" by Krackatoa!

Completely unintentionally, we ended up putting together a podcast almost entirely about adult topics. After a rousing game of Marry/Sex/Kill wherein we challenged one another to marry, have sex with, or kill famous and/or fictional men, we move on to our "graphic novels: definitely not just for kids!" section.

Topics include:

Which Star Trek captain would you kill? Marry? Have sex with?

Which failed superhero would you choose?

Bonus: we revisit Meg's crushes through the ages! (It's totally embarrassing!)

Also, we talk about some of our favorite graphic novels: Saga and Sex Criminals! These aren't your kids' comics, my friend!

As usual, our intro/outro music is "We Are Highscore" by Krackatoa.

In this episode, we discuss our favorite screenwriters (and usually directors) including Wes Anderson, Charlie Kaufman and the Brothers Coen (Joel & Ethan).

We explore themes and favorite movies as well as the latest in geek news and updates on our geek goals!

Today Meg and Jen discuss their favorite tabletop games and unique ways to experience them. No matter what your interest - portable mini games, cooperative gaming, family style games, dice, board, whatever, we have you covered with a primer of our favorites.

Enjoy our favorite Christmas pop culture! From different interpretations of Dickens to classic Christmas specials to Iron Man 3 to Die Hard, we love it all. Plus, we gush about how much we loved Star Wars. (Still no Star Wars spoilers so no worries)

Two gaffes (both made by Jen): Return of the Jedi came out in May not March (still 7 days before her birth), and Andrew Lincoln and "the guy from Walking Dead" are, in fact, the same guy.

As always, our wonderful Intro/Outro music is "We Are Highscore" by Krackatoa.

Happy Holidays!

Today's podcast has nothing to do with Star Wars. Look for your spoilers elsewhere.

It is about pop culture we enjoyed as kids and "kid stuff" we enjoy as adults. They include My Little Pony, Ducktales, Harry Potter, and our favorite Disney flicks.

As usual, our amazing intro/outro theme is "We are Highscore" by Krackatoa.

Editor's note from Jen: Sorry for the phantom clicking. I got a new microphone and it picks up weird noises that my chair makes.

In this episode we explore modernized adaptations of great literature - both Shakespeare and Jane Austen - and alternative forms of communication and narrative. It's way goofier than it sounds. Also, we paraphrase our segment title "Great Adaptations" from Dickens and then never mention him. Sorry, Dickens!

There is also a little bit of singing. Very little. Don't worry about it.

As usual, our lovely intro/outro music is "We Are Highscore" by Krackatoa.

Happy Thanksgiving Everyone! In this episode, Jen and Meg discuss our favorite episodes of Thanksgiving television and other pop culture traditions!

These favorites include episodes of the following:

Friends

Gilmore Girls

Gossip Girl

MST3K

Bonus: We get a little loopy at the end and fail at doing New Zealand accents.
