Episode 110: Feminism and Misogyny

Did you ever write something and think about how it'll come out. In your head you sound smart and articulate. But then you record it and it's less than planned? That's this podcast. For me....#YesToAllWoman because I felt the need to edit myself. I also felt that I started to sound like I'm whining when I was trying to talk about something important to me. Show notes:

• LASIK surgery isn't bad
• Jim Butcher released the latest in the Dresden Files book, Skin Game
• 2 Nerds 1 Podcast plays a zork game written by the talented Joe Harvey. Tim Church plays along and together they are incredible entertaining.
• I talk about feminism and misogyny
• The important points: being inclusive is better than exclusive
• Shitting on another group doesn't elevate your group
• Be respectful of one another
• #YesAllWomen
• Please support the things I love...oh and review me on itunes?

Music by the URI Ram Marching Band under the direction of Dr. Brian Cardany.
