In this messy episode Tiffany Kagure Mugo sits down with Jac sm Kee to chat about feminist tech and Silicon Valley Syndrome, the scam that is an 'equal internet' and why conversations about A.I need to be about more than shouting 'my toaster is getting smart with me.' It's all about building the internet that we all want to be on, but its going to take a little while to get there, we just need to give the feminist girlies their coins.

In this messy episode Tiffany Mugo sits down with Mona Eltahawy to talk about transitioning into menopause, figuring out love and dating and how the medical gender gap is out of control. Having agency and control is something that is hard earned (because sometimes it feels like even your body is fighting you), but the goal is to free yourself. And spend more energy on researching the female body and less on making things hard.
