Kate Valentine is one of the instigators of the feminist neo-burlesque movement. The Va Va Voom Room was her weekly variety show running at the beloved cabaret space Fez Under Time Café in NYC. Her hilariously deadpan mistress of ceremonies character Miss Astrid traveled all over the globe entertaining audiences with her quick improvisational wit.

Concurrently, Ms. Valentine wrote and starred in many sketch comedy shows and directed and created works of experimental dance theatre. Directing credits include The Terrorism of Everyday Life, which won a Herald Angel Award at the Edinburgh Festival.

Get tickets to this Sunday’s, October 6, 2024, performance of A Woman of a Certain Rage, 8pm at the Orpheum in Saugerties. It is Kate’s first full length solo show. “A romp, a rant, a bloodletting, about living in a female body in the 21st century. A vivisection of the American medical system. Your Doctor is in and he has been diagnosed with white male privilege. Ms. Valentine is filling your prescription for dismantling the patriarchy!”

This 70-minute show utilizes raw personal stories, physical comedy, dance, and pure undiluted female energy. A Woman of a Certain Rage is a call to action — to project our Rage out into the world and to utilize that heat to propel us into a dynamic harmonious future.

Today Kate shared about why she created this performance, and some of the background around the content of the performance including the physical and emotion experiences that led to a deeper awareness of the harms she’d experienced in life. A goal for this show is to help galvanize support for the long overdue passage of the ERA through.

You can find and follow Kate on Instagram  for updates on performances and more.

Happy New Moon Solar Eclipse on Wednesday.

“Solar Eclipses also remind us that confusion, disorientation, and chaos often precede clarity: they invite us to deepen our introspection and encourage us to come back to alignment before continuing to move forward.”

We listened to music from these ladies.

Today’s show was engineered by Ian Seda from Radiokingston.org.

315 Dr. Amy Novatt “GynoCurious” and “Vulva Views”

Today I get to welcome back Dr. Amy Novatt a board certified ob-gyn who generously offered her time in the past for monthly conversations about women’s reproductive healthcare. She is now the host of GynoCurious, a program that explores the experience of being an ob-gyn,  the science that guides their practices  and the stories women- cis, trans and nonbinary, have shared with her as they seek health and wellness. Investigating what it means to be a healer and to be healed.

It’s not a medical show that tells you how much estrogen you should take or the scientific method used to evaluate data but instead, a conversation about the larger canvas looking at what its like to be a medical professional working with women and how patients experience the world of ob-gyn. Conversations like, what is it like sitting in the exam room with a thin sheet of paper covering your naked body? What has been the impact of a cancer diagnosis? What it is like to go through the menopause? She hopes to talk about our fears, sexual explorations and aging adventures with respect, inquiry and science. For her, knowledge and awareness brings awe, authority and autonomy.

Today we expand upon some of the topics that she’s covered on the show like the biological design of women as caretaker, the impact of hormones on life and the lack of external understanding or support for how they impact women, the corporatization of medical care and the problems that ensue, how the medical profession has let down women since it’s inception, how to advocate for yourself when it comes to healthcare, and how we need to break the system in order to rebuild it. Whew…

If you have a topic that is a good fit for GynoCurious, be in touch with Dr. Novatt via Radio Free Rhinecliff.

Following our conversation I shared from this article, “Sexism in Medicine: It’s Not All in Her Head,” and chatted about International Women’s Day and the many Virtual Events that are taking place this year.

Lastly, here’s your New Moon Report. It’s so perfectly anti-patriarchal.

Today my guest is Donna Klassen, Co-founder and CEO of Let’s Talk Menopause. In addition to her work at Let’s Talk Menopause, she is a licensed clinical social worker with more than 30 years of experience. Her areas of practice include trauma, infertility, and perinatal mood and anxiety disorders. In addition to her private practice, Donna served as admissions and clinical director at the Motherhood Center of New York from 2017-2020, and has held supervisory roles at SUNY Stony Brook, the Jewish Board of Children and Family Services, and Safespace.

They started Let’s Talk Menopause because they’ve learned from their individual experiences—and those of just about every other woman they know—that too many women do not get the information, support, and healthcare they need during menopause. Too many women are suffering unnecessarily. Too many women don’t know what to ask.

Let’s Talk Menopause aims to change this through education and advocacy. They want to empower women to seek the relief they need and encourage them to talk openly about their menopause experience.

Donna shares information about menopause, the health implications including mental and emotional well-being and treatment options available including hormone replacement therapy and skills based therapy like cognitive behavior therapy. We also briefly discussed the details in this NY Times article that I share from about the cost of menopause for women in the workplace. Check out their podcast “Hello Menopause” and their weekly talks featuring in-depth discussions with a wide range of specialists—from gynecologists and urologists to physical therapists and psychiatrists—to help you understand how menopause impacts your body, emotions and lives and to provide you with options for navigating the changes you may experience.

Here’s the episode with Lori King talking about her experience and support for surgical menopause.

Following my conversation with Donna, I share info about Raising Hope’s upcoming celebration of hope honoring women in the community, including myself. Thank you Tara Sanders for nominating me!

Here is the Raising HOPE Celebration of HOPE silent auction.

Here is the Full Moon Astrology Report from Tanaaz at Forever Conscious that I shared at the end of the show.

Here’s the Playlist from today’s show.
