Suffering Sappho! Wonder Woman’s role in our culture is far more complex than Tracie’s childhood love for Lynda Carter (and Wonder Woman underoos) prepared her for.
In this more-meta-than-usual episode, Tracie dives into the history of the world’s most famous Amazonian Nazi-fighter. From Wonder Woman’s comic book origins–she sprang fully formed from the mind of William Moulton Marston (a 1940s-era feminist, lie-detector inventor, and bondage enthusiast)--to the ways Diana’s characterization both empowers and disenfranchises women, Tracie and Emily discuss the complicated legacy of our favorite feminist superhero.
Join us as we talk about beauty, grace, and power–and what they all mean in a society that insists on hierarchies.

We are the sister podcasters Tracie Guy-Decker and Emily Guy Birken, known to our extended family as the Guy Girls.
We're hella smart and completely unashamed of our overthinking prowess. We love 80s and 90s movies and tv, science fiction, comedy, and murder mysteries, good storytelling with lots of dramatic irony, analyzing film tropes with a side of feminism, and examining the pop culture of our Gen X childhood for gender dynamics, psychology, sociology, religious allegory, and whatever else we find.
We have super-serious day jobs. For the bona fides, visit our individual websites: tracieguydecker.com and emilyguybirken.com. For our work together, visit guygirlsmedia.com
We are on socials! Find us on Facebook at fb.com/dtasspodcast and on Insta at instagram.com/guygirlsmedia. You can also email us at guygirlsmedia at gmail dot com. We would love to hear from you!
