Sea Hags Podcast

So much is happening and so much nothing is happening! Here is a second remote-recorded episode, with one host in the studio and the other in East Anglia. Since recording, the idiot foreign correspondent has been repatriated to Canada, safely and in once piece, to begin quarantine. MORE LIKE BORE-ANTINE. We’re doing our best. 

Desperate times call for special measures. The Sea Hags are back, albeit remotely, to bring you a bi-continental chat about friendship in the time of ugghhhhhhhhh. 

Hoist yer butt right up to the noozle! An OG hag joins us this week, Michelle Wishart, a guest nearly three years in the making -- she corroborates our whale story (how validating), and describes her erotic encounters with Prince Adam of Eternia. NSFP not safe for parents.  We’re taking a wee hiatus, but we will see you back in August!

Right off the top, let’s be clear that the title is not some historical reference, we begin with C bombs right away and it does not stop! Those delicate of ear, turn away! We live for spicy water, highway terlets, and scheming. We debrief our self-sustaining travel and fantasize the ultimate solo trips.

Chris had an enriching, exciting week, and Katie just has... her period. It’s a hilarious blend of disparate energies until we start spitballing all the various and sundry ways that we could make our podcast be not such a bad podcast. Or, to use more positive terminology, how to make something that actually has an elevator pitch. What would you do if ______ wasn’t in the way? 

Il n'y a pas d'invité cette semaine! Just us chickens, lounging by the Jersey Stretch Shore. We have recorded ourselves supposedly “turning over a new leaf”, a move that will surely serve to embarrass us when we are invariably back on our respective bullshit later. Physical, practical, and metaphorical cleansing occurs between blasting the Goofy Movie soundtrack and plotting future book club outings. (cw - diet/body/weight talk) 

We’re getting gother than usual this week with newly minted Death Doula, Chelsey Blair! We discuss doula-ing at the beginning and end of life (and how it’s messed up there’s no doula for all the tough stuff in between), Medical Assistance in Dying, and the sorry business of regrets. We also make time to bully pompous academics while BEING pompous academics. Chris does a Chowder Crawl Clam Slam in the place where they done did made a Twilight. 

Well, well, well, look who finally visited from the BIG CITY, it’s big city bigshot Kaitlin Fontana! She just got off a plane from NYC (hey, i’m flyin’ here!) and came right to the shack to catch us up on all the glorious debauchery she’s currently involved in, such as showing a pilot at Sundance, getting women hired into creative positions, and... oh yeah, writing a series about polyamory for Chatelaine! Truckin’ and fuckin’. We get very NSFW in the second half, so this is not one for Gam Gam and Pop Pop. 

This week, we’re joined by local stand-up darling Randee Neumeyer! We discuss true crime (obviously, we’re 3 women on a podcast), ghost stories, being a food services shithead, and how Randee’s dad has only ever cried once--over a youtube video of a lion. Go see Randee’s monthly show The List at Little Mountain Gallery in East Van! It’s on this Friday, April 27.

Lauren Martin returns for her third visit to the podcast, having made a small human in the intervening period! We hit our most stereotypical points - astrology, mindfulness, witch camp, negative feelings, mom fights and how hard it is to make art. Lauren is pitching her short documentary to Storyhive, so check it out here! Voting starts April 3rd!

​Standup comic and man with a barbeque AND a penis (we think that’s hetero for cis?) Gavin Clarkson joins us to flail around to create ANY content. Gavin and Katie’s bad show was cancelled the evening of our recording and we’re riding that wave of fail vibes. We develop our most condensed identities--horny scienceman, “lady” protester, and West Wing Blazer. OK, that last one’s a last minute editorial. ILU, Chris.
