Episode #260 Tuesday 10 pm the 3rd of March 2015: Home Alone : The Squeamer in the Studio!

She may have helmed the show alone this week, but Sonja The Squeamer has enough guests that she chatted to through the earlier part of the week to keep it a busy little show!

She spoke to musical artist the wonderful Owen Pallett due to come to Oz for a special show called:

IN DREAMS: DAVID LYNCH REVISITED ….

Owen talks about his work, his love for Lynch and Queer politics, what that means to him in his music and gender roles and more ! (we be podcasting the WHOLE interview with Owen shortly..)

The Squeamer talked also to geek girl @TheMavenHerself : Emma Beddows AKA Geek Maven !

What does it mean to be a Maven and geek and all about her new website/blog and being a female geek, and something coming up she is involved in called Con 70!

The Full interview with Geek Maven is COMING SOON!

another AWESOME woman she chatted to is Amy Gray : “Amy Gray is in her 30s and commonly found in Melbourne, Australia. While you’re reading this she is possibly drinking a coffee~~, smoking~~ no, smoking, and insulting someone. Because she’s a people person.”

The Full interview with Amy Gray will be podcasted very soon!

you will find her speaking this Thursday the 5th of March at the Queen Victoria Women’s Center !

she will be talking on : ‘Reclaiming Cyber Space – how the internet has become the new battleground in the fight for equality for women.’

And finally we remember and pay a tribute to Leonard Nimoy, our beloved Mr Spock from Star Trek….we will miss him so…R.I.P grandfather of the geeks.
