Bitch Radio Episode 1: Wired and Inspired

As the Wired issue departs from the newsstands, we present you with Bitch's first foray into audio, featuring highlights from the issue — including a feature on Second Life ("Same Shit, Different World"), the exploration of the Feminist Porn Awards ("Adult Education"), and book and music reviews — all read by dulcet-toned Bitch staffers and friends. Also included are person-on-the-street ruminations on the question of what the advent of the Internet has meant, both good and bad, for girls and women. And all this audio goodness is set to the ambient sounds of Eats Tapes. So take a listen to our first-ever podcast, and let us know what you liked, what you'd like to hear more of, and whether we've taken too many of our vocal cues from the ladies of Saturday Night Live's "Delicious Dish."

I LOVE the outtakes

Very cute!

If you haven't listened to it yet, it's worth the wait 'til the end.

volume

this was great, and my only complain was that even with my volume turned up all the way it was a little hard to hear ....it had the sound of being recorded from a distance or something similar to that

but other than that, I loved it!

First Podcast

I just got the chance to listen yesterday and I'm so thrilled you're putting out a podcast! In the future, though, I hope it will expand to include content beyond what's already in the magazine. I fast-forwarded through a lot of the segments because I'd already read them, and I think if you get creative with it you could do things with the podcast that wouldn't have worked in print, which sounds more fun & worthwhile than using it to rehash content you've already put out.

The "person on the street" interviews about the internet were my favorite things this time around (aside from the outtakes, anyway) and I'm looking forward to your next episode!
