We did it! Another episode of Power P’s is up!
In this episode, Emily and Samie dive into ACOTAR dream casting, share some thrilling Outlander news, and discuss the downfall of Kevin Spacey and other notoriously creepy stars.
Emily reveals her latest splurge to feel like a Kardashian while Samie and our neighbors in Western Washington tackle the Great Traffic Disaster of 2024.
They also examine the alarming wave of legislation and policies designed to erode reproductive rights across the United States following Trump's appointment of anti-choice Supreme Court Justices and the vow to overturn Roe v. Wade. Additionally, we address the concerning impacts of Washington's Parental Rights Initiative 2081 from the 2024 Legislative Session, which threatens existing laws and harms youth.
Finally, we begin our exploration of "Invisible Women: Exposing Data Bias in a World Designed for Men" by Caroline Criado Perez.
This essential read highlights how the default male perspective undermines societal and economic progress in everything from video games like Fallout to the creation of emojis.
“For far too long, representative government in this country has meant old white men. There are so many people who felt like their stories and experiences were left out of the conversation. I don't believe I get the privilege of sitting at this table without amplifying the struggles we’re experiencing.” – Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX).
Other things discussed: 34 Counts, Policing, Cabo Wabo, Cannabis, Washington DC, Pianos, Broken Legs, Cleaning Tips, Cigars and Good Old Fashions!
