Four Pioneers have recently taken to the airwaves to examine the ways that gender is constructed and perpetuated in popular culture. Co-hosts Rose Kyser, Jackson Lamb, Lyric Onus and Sonni Wilson initially developed their gender-focused podcast, \u201cI Think \u2018G\u2019 is For \u2018Girl\u2019,\u201d as part of an advocacy project for Transylvania\u2019s Psychology of Gender course.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe figured that a podcast would be the best way for us to express our emotions concerning a very pressing issue in relation to the queer and women\u2019s rights movements,\u201d said Lamb.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The four-episode series focuses on the representation of gender in media, marketing and entertainment. With titles like \u201cIt\u2019s Right on the Package\u201d and \u201cI Saw It on TV,\u201d the hosts converse about the different \u2014 and sometimes covert \u2014 ways in which social constructs of gender are reinforced. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

While the hosts took inspiration from popular podcasts that simultaneously entertain while normalizing complex topics, \u201cI Think \u2018G\u2019 is For \u2018Girl\u2019\u201d is also a response to the proliferation of podcasts that speak derogatorily about women.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThere are a lot of podcasts out there that have negative, sexist messages about gender concepts, and this was a way to challenge that,\u201d Onus said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Developing the podcast took nearly a full semester, with the co-hosts extensively brainstorming and researching episode topics before sitting down to record and produce the season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Each host was responsible for researching one of the four episodes. Kyser focused on hypersexualization in ads and commercials; Wilson explored gendered toys and other products; Onus looked at book bans that impacted LGBTQ-themed literature; and Lamb discussed LGBT representation in media and movies. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Though one person framed each discussion, giving them the opportunity to dig deeper on topics of personal interest, all of the co-hosts contributed their unique perspectives to every conversation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWith four of us, it was easy to compare and expose our listeners to different perspectives on the same topic,\u201d Kyser said.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The easy conversation between the four hosts also serves as a model for others who might be interested in having conversations about these often-fraught topics. \u201cI feel like talking about gender and sexuality is kind of scary nowadays, because people are realizing that it\u2019s not as simple as we always thought,\u201d Wilson reflected. \u201cI want to show that it shouldn\u2019t be something scary. You should be able to talk comfortably and not be afraid to make mistakes and be wrong because we\u2019re all learning. It\u2019s a process.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Despite the level of effort involved, all four students enjoyed their co-hosting experience. While this cohort of hosts will not produce another season \u2014 both Wilson and Onus are graduating this month \u2014 they hope that the project will both educate listeners and serve as a jumping-off point for others. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIf other groups of students want to add on to this project in the future and create more seasons talking about gender in different aspects of life, that would be really cool,\u201d Wilson said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The student hosts credited the inclusive atmosphere that Transy creates for students, as well as their experiences creating media for other class projects, for the positive experience they had developing and producing \u201cI Think \u2018G\u2019 is For \u2018Girl\u2019.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cOverall, it was a great way to fulfill a class\u2019 requirement and spread awareness about gender representation in media platforms,\u201d Kyser said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI Think \u2018G\u2019 is For \u2018Girl\u2019\u201d continues to be available to stream on YouTube, iHeart Podcasts and Spotify, as well as other podcast providers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
