Welcome to...the Season 1 finale of the “Please, Kindly” Podcast!

We’ve been gone for a while, and we’re here to tell you: we’re gonna be gone again!  We will see you back for the premier of Season 2 late spring/early summer.  Check back our FBook for updates.  We hope you’ll join us!

Also listen to us gripe a LOT about being on the #Whole30, and update you on our real-life work & lives.

No links this week, but you can look forward to a whole new us in just a few months!

Love,

Look out: new #episode coming this week! No, this puppy has nothing to do with it, he’s just there to delight & distract you with those eyes 😍 In Ep 12, we’ll be discussing #dress, #politics, #bicycles, the modern Christian #headcovering movement, and “fighting the corsetless evil”. Also, get ready for some more #science facts straight from one of our returning ladies-in-the-#STEM-fields! #podcast #faith #feminism #corset #OOTD #womenslib #womensmovement #mondaymotivation

“Hocus Pocus” Livetweet!

Fellow Sanderson sisters, join us on Twitter on 10/30 at 8:50pm for a spooooky live-tweet of your favorite Halloween classic, "Hocus Pocus." Follow us (@plz_kindly) and use the hashtags #HocusPocus and #13NightsOfHalloween.

WHERE TO WATCH: We'll be watching on Freeform, but you can find it for $3 on all your streaming services (iTunes, Amazon Video, Google Play, YouTube). Or break out that old VHS we know you have.

WHAT TO BRING: Your device, your costume (optional, but we'll be dressing up), your pals, & snackage, obv! (Perhaps that candy you're SUPPOSED to be giving out the following night...)

WHY: First of all: Twitter, GIFs, and #Halloween. Also, Hocus Pocus is a #feminist masterpiece (in our humble opinions) and an all-around fun flick. Curious? Check out Splinter's oldie-but-goodie article about the "subversive feminism of Hocus Pocus.”

QUESTIONS? Ask us here, on Twitter, or at [email protected]

#11.5 Pod-let 2: Mini-sode

As usual, the news is whack, so take care of your brain if you’ve been scanning the headlines.

It’s Share Time - seriously.

Chels is here to pick apart what’s going on in the media regarding the women harassed by Weinstein, and to discuss that this is nothing new and it happens on all levels of society.  Your story is worthy of telling, and we want to hear it.

Please visit RAINN’s website for resources on reporting harassment, assault, exploitation -- no action is too small. Also, feel free to reach out to us at [email protected], and we’ll hook you up.

More info on Weinstein?  Take your pick, honestly, but we recommend Slate.

Back to the suffragettes for a moment!

Remember ol’ Liz Cady Stanton?  Yeah, she’s controversial for a number of reasons (NOT LEAST BECAUSE SHE EMPLOYED RACIST RHETORIC, HELLO).

But she and 26 other ladies wrote The Woman’s Bible, a commentary on the verses concerning women and womanhood.   Read it on your e-devices and tell us what you think on Twitter with the hashtag #WomansBible.

Or, as always, email us at [email protected].  We want your thoughts on that and we ALSO want your questions!

Send us a question.  Something we talked about unclear?  Something you wish we would talk about?  A challenge?  Something you just need to ask someone?  Send it.  Or tweet us with the hashtag #plzq.

Recommendations:  Criminal & Crash Course!  Check em’ out.

(Crash Course brought to you by physical comedy.)

Next time:  dress & the women’s movement, also known as “Fighting the Corsetless Evil.”

Peace out, people scouts!

#9: This Is Your Life, Part II

We talk about the Ren Faire too much in a podcast about Chelsea’s life!  But seriously, we get to know her better, and we urge you to visit the Renaissance Faire in NY or PA.  We did that this weekend, and here were the results! (And we were there less than 15 minutes before a man tried to tell us how to read a map without our asking him!  Enjoy Faire-wide condoning of casual sexism in the name of “historical accuracy.”)

Also, consider visiting The Vault Brewery (no, they do not sponsor us, we just like their pizza).

And finally, review us!  You can do so on SoundCloud or iTunes.
