Ep. 18: Postmillennial Femme-inisms LIVE at USC: Sex & the City vs. The L-Word
Waiting to X-hale - A podcast by Karen Tongson and Wynter Mitchell-Rohrbaugh
W2X goes back to school w/ Professor Tongson’s class on U.S. Pop Culture LIVE at USC! Wynter is off on assignment, so Tre’vell Anderson from OUT magazine and Sarah Kessler, the TV editor for Public Books (and Karen’s better half) join her for a backwards glance at the early 2000s and the “postfeminism” of Sex & The City vs. The L-Word. Tre’vell gives us the dish about Robyn Crawford’s new memoir and offers us a preview of the L-Word sequel, Generation Q, while Sarah tells us about her bodice-ripping amusements when Karen is out of town. Nuo-Lingo gets into “cool wine aunts,” and the students become the masters as they discuss the meme “Ladies, imagine this.” Plus, SOTW’s from the aughts!
