The question isn't where, constable, but wait.

Wait until you read book seven by Croyd.

I'm Greta Johnson.

I'm Trisha Bobita.

And this is the Nerdette podcast.

Sarah Merck, online editor for the feminist pop culture magazine, Bitch, is here to talk comics, which she consumes and makes.

And about finding good models for non-traditional

relationships. Which is hard, you guys. Disney lied to us. This episode is also brought to you from

two time zones. Yeah, Greta is in Alaska this week. They've been having crazy weather up there, right?

Yeah, all last week it was over 90 degrees, which is really confusing for Alaskans who don't have air conditioning and they wear shorts when the snow starts to melt. And now this week there's a fire nearby. But in Alaska, we don't put fires out because the woods are largely uninhabited and it's good for the trees to burn. But Fairbanks is in a bowl. So now the town is filled with smoke and everything smells a little like campfire. So that's

kind of confusing. What's the weather like in Chicago? Tricia, why are you asking me? You're there. Because you're the weather nerd with all the weather apps. That's fair. The weather. It's a thing. How many cities? Tell them, how many cities do you keep track of the weather on via your interwebs phone? 13?

13?

Well, there's Chicago, there's Fairbanks, there's Asheville, there's Walnut Creek, do you keep track of the weather on via your interwebs phone? 13? 13?

Well, there's Chicago.

There's Fairbanks.

There's Asheville.

There's Walnut Creek, Downeyville, Washington, D.C., Juneau, New York, Hayes Valley, Northfield. And then, of course, you know, Krakow, Seoul, and Paris. What? Well, they're all where I lived or a friend or family member lives, but it's also a pretty good global spread, I think.

Sarah Merck swung through town on a road trip recently and to her friend or family member lives, but it's also a pretty good global spread, I think.

Sarah Merck swung through town on a road trip recently and stopped by the studio.

She's the online editor for the feminist pop culture magazine, bitch.

She makes wicked cool historical comics and editorial cartoons.

So I didn't actually admit this to Sarah, but I've had a hard time jumping on the feminist bandwagon because I feel like most of the feminists I see are super smug manhaters. Ouch. Too far? Yeah, girl. Don't call me girls, sir. Hey! Well, I'm a feminist, and I want to raise. Tricia, we don't get paid to do this. So I'm making 73 cents on no dollar? Yeah, and 73 cents on no dollar is still no dollar. Okay. The thing is, I really want to be a feminist. I just find it hard to navigate all these strong personalities to find a way for me to join the movement. But Sarah totally did that for me. I was a science camp counselor. Oh, nice.
