Hey there, friends and fans! The first installment of RiGIDcast will (hopefully) be up within the next few weeks, but until then, I'd like to hear from you about what you'd like to hear. Whereas RiGID Radio had a very music-centric format, RiGIDcast will primarily be a talk show with some music highlighted at the beginning and end of the program. In the spirit of riot grrrl, I'd like to feature all-female or female-fronted unsigned or indie bands, preferably ones that are local to the Baltimore area (but I won't be too picky about that). If you're in a band, or know of one that sounds like this, please leave a link to your myspace or wherever else we can hear your awesomeness in the comments.
Listeners, I need your help, too. The first show will be about everyone's favorite topic to skirt around, pornography. I'd love to hear your opinions and thoughts on the subject. Tell me what you think: does all porn degrade and objectify women? is "feminist porn" possible? ladies, do you watch porn, and under what circumstances? tell me about the best, and worst, porn you've ever seen.....etc, etc.
Of course, I'm always searching for new topics(relevant to young feminists) for this show, so comment with suggestions about that, too!
peace
laura
