Okay, wait, I missed it every year. Do it again. Do it again. Do it again.

Anna Mudde 0:14

Welcome to thinking bodies with me Anna Mudde

Kristin Rodier 0:16

and me Kristin Rodier. We are two feminist philosophers who love the sounds of feminist philosophy. We are building a philosophy podcast that is also a feminist DIY experiment

Anna Mudde 0:31

Maybe even a DIT experiment—doing it together.

Kristin Rodier 0:35

So we're going to be talking about feminist philosophy ideas that we really love.

Anna Mudde 0:40

I'm thinking too, about the ways that we think about bodies, and also the ways that bodies think

Kristin Rodier 0:48

bodies do think, and that's what we're going to do together.

Anna Mudde 0:55

I think about how bodies think and know the material world, how they know other bodies, how bodies teach bodies to do things in the world, and how bodies Express concepts, which is what we often talk about in philosophy. Well, I often think of my own craft practice. So that involves knitting and knitting. Once you get sort of the hang of it, your body kind of can often do parts of it automatically.

Kristin Rodier 1:22

Well, I've always been working around questions of feminist resistance. So how do we enact whether together? Or collectively or relationally? How do we enact resistance to oppression? It's all around us? How do we do that in ways that don't reinscribe the very oppression we're trying to resist? I think it's really, really difficult. And one of the things I'm thinking about is art, and I'm thinking about how we can and I'm not talking about paintings in a museum. I'm talking about ways that we can bring concepts to life through embodying performances, through sound, and through all kinds of different ways of crafting relationships. Just a little project.

Anna Mudde 2:08

Yeah, you'll be done next month. Yes.

Kristin Rodier 2:18

I'm excited Anna, how are we going to do a feminist philosophy podcast differently?

Anna Mudde 2:25

To start we're asking feminist philosophers wherever they may be to go to our website, thinkingbodiespod.com and submit short voice clips for us to collage with.

Kristin Rodier 2:35

So join Anna and I as we think together and we weave feminist philosophy voices together and have a conversation where we're filling in the gaps of our own knowledge, reading new philosophy together, and finding joy in what we love about philosophy. Go to thinkingbodiespod.com for more information
