Unfortunately, TV, film, and the media have not done the best job in representing people who stutter and have largely left out the voices and experiences of women stutterers.This week we talk to Nina G, a stuttering comedian, about where popular culture misses the mark on the stuttering experience and how we can do better.Also mentioned:Come-backs in response to stuttering jokesProtesting against stuttering discriminationWomen and stutteringStuttering Interrupted: The Comedian Who Almost Didn’t Happen Dating someone who also stuttersStuttering guiltThe problem of the inspiration storyBay Area Stand-Up Comedy: A Humorous HistoryProud Stutter’s Launch PartyFilms and TV representations mentioned:“Today, Junior,” in Billy Madison“Did I Stutter,” in The OfficeChange of HabitPorky Pig The King’s SpeechMy Cousin VinnyMoses PlayNina’s Upcoming Live Shows:April 15: 501 Mendocino Ave, Santa Rosa, CA 95401April 16: 4920 Telegraph Ave, Oakland, CA 94609April 22: 1344 Park St, Alameda, CA 94501Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/proud-stutter/exclusive-contentAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
