03 A Nosebleed in Time

Published: Nov. 29, 2017, 1:49 p.m.

We're back with Episode Three of Feminist Frequency Radio! This week, we dive into the latest entertainment news and share our excitement for Ava DuVernay\u2019s upcoming film adaptation of A Wrinkle in Time. We then discuss comedian Hari Kondabolu\u2019s thought-provoking new documentary The Problem With Apu, which looks at the harm done by Apu of The Simpsons, perhaps the single most enduring racial stereotype of a character in American pop culture history.\n\nWe also return to Hawkins, Indiana circa 1984 to share our reactions to the second season of Stranger Things and Anita explains that, like Eleven, she too used to get nosebleeds a lot (but unfortunately she doesn\u2019t divulge the nature of her telekinetic powers). Finally, Carolyn admits that International Men\u2019s Day put her in a reflective mood and made her reconsider some things she said on last week\u2019s show.
