SN Special: Menstruation Nation
Untold terrors abound in this radio drama as our London studios are overrun with femme fatales, venturing into man’s domain in some daring attempt to gain dominance in the venerable field of audio mirthmaking.
What horrors hath God wrought? Is this Mor’feen: this land that has sent packing the smug Frenchman, the licentious Spaniard and the blustering Hun; is this, our Nation, now beset by ill-disported damsels from Prime Minister Thatcher’s sewing circle? Surely, any lad would sooner quaff lye than miss this evening’s entertainments!
I had to put up with this bullshit in editing, and now so do you. Found below for your pleasure, you can listen to a pair of skirts discussing womanly things while I sit quietly in the background playing with the chat room emoticons. Seriously though, this here Menstruation Nation has quickly grown on me, like an agressive tumor, and I’ve learned to accept it and even embrace it, even if it nearly killed me. But if you’re sporting a vadge, chances are this will have the opposite effect on you. Enjoy.
Ladies, get your husbands’ permission to direct download here.
(Apologies to Alan Moore for the introduction.)






















I am so downloading this and burning this to CD so I Can listen to this while driving tonight.
I can not believe I missed out on this, you ladies are totally amazing!!! I hope to get to join in on next time
I touched myself to the song at the end. Oh and i cant tell u two apart, why dont one of you put on a nice normal Aussie accent next time? MOAR SONGS IN THE NEXT ONE.
Also, id like it if there were some subjects, but its understandable this time because of a lack of preparation. If i want to listen to a couple of birds talk about nothing id phonetap my next door neighbour.
OMG! It’s like Honey and I are one person! …wow.
Damn…I need a new headset. *sigh.
I agree with Ano on two points. I’ll start by saying I liked this, but some sort of schedule written out beforehand might have made it even better. And also, you two do sound VERY much alike, voice-wise. Though for awhile I was having trouble telling between Bruce and Gunsage on SN, so it might just be a thing that’ll work itself out in the listener’s ear with time.
One of you needs to either speak through a voice roboticizer or only in grunts so I can figure out which is which.
@JCC- First, we already knew that about the ‘having a plan’ bit. Personally, I figured it’d fall through so I didn’t prepare.
With that said, next time I’ll try to sound like Dr. Girlfriend…would that work?
Seriously, *I* can barely tell us apart (I was afraid of that the first time I heard Seattle speak) -and I was THERE- so I absolutely know where you’re all coming from. I’m not sure about the solution, but I also had that problem with GunSage and Bruce, too. But really, for this show, all you need to know is: if they’re saying “Can you hear me now?” It’s Seattle. And if they’re saying “I can’t hear you!” it’s me. Maybe next time we’ll try out a bunch of different voices. My “Ice Ice Baby” done in a Minnesota accent is a big hit with my real life friends…
Oh, and thanks again to Dan for sitting through that. And then SIFTING through that. You’re the best, Dan!
Or like that robot bitch in Small Wonder. :p
I did enjoy this a lot. I like the dynamic between Honey and SF…and I think Laurie can add to it.
One suggestion though:
If you guys do tackle some topics, don’t go the Station Nation route and pick out random and weird stuff. I wouldn’t mind hearing your thoughts on current, mainstream events. It fun and all being obscure, but this stuff in popular for a reason.
I am so sad that I wasn’t available to partake in this amazingness. Let’s do it again ladies!
