Internation Women's Day Special!
Image: Marsha P. Johnson
Since it's women's history month and International (working) Women's Day was this week, here's my annual show of all music made by women! OF COURSE this includes trans women. With a national/international panic about trans people going on right now, I'm giving my trans sisters a little boost and making a concerted effort to include more of their music this time around. It's a small gesture but when you're seeing people like yourself being scapegoated, demonized, outlawed and attacked every damn day, small comforts can help. Of course ACTION helps more and I hope you will consider doing concrete things to combat this bigotry. More info on the issues and what you can do here (the other day there were 385 bills nationwide attacking the rights of LGBTQ people; today there are 399) and here (intro the the issues and ways you can help).

Episode #155: Nerdy stuff
Today's mini theme (at 3pm) is stuff for nerds! Specifically stuff that I was into as a nerdy youth in the 80s/90s. I do not view nerdiness as derogatory in the slightest.

Transistor Sister #153: Into the Unknown! feat. talking to the band
Are you ready Steve? Uh huh.
It's my first (well in a long time) 2 hour episode of Transistor Sister, a new look for spring! You will hear a bunch of nonsense from all across time including a ton of brand new jams! In the second hour I'm doing well a very long mini set (ok at least 2 sets) of songs where the band members talk to each other.
Brought to you by the makers of uneasy listening
