From rebellion leaders to scream queens and everything in-between, women have shaped sci-fi and fantasy since its inception. Each week Fangrrls founder & managing editor Cher Martinetti, contributing editor and author Preeti Chhibber, and associate editor Courtney Enlow celebrate the countless badass women in geek culture through funny, witty, and unfiltered deep dives into the nerdverse.

OMG, how fun is this show?! It's basically 3 women sitting around geeking out about everything nerdy and celebrating all the strong women I LOVE in film & TV (from Mulan to Buffy). And it feels like I'm have a long lunch with my girlfriends having a fun and nerdy chat. Love it!
We need more podcasts like this and I'm glad this one existed while it did.
Such a great pod! The hosts bring different fandoms and experiences and always have engaging discussions.
Such a great pod! Fun hosts highlighting important topics. Highly recommended.
Truthfully I have zero idea what ‘thirst’ and ‘frak, marry, kill’ episodes have to do with strong female characters—it’s not my cup of tea but to each their own I suppose—but I highly recommend the Forgotten Women of Genre series that’s tucked in randomly as bonus episodes. Those are brilliant and I really hope there’s more along that lines in the pipes. Truly enjoy most of the podcasts but not a massive fan of the thirst and FMK episodes. That’s personal taste and not a knock on the overall pod... more
Funny, insightful, and full of feels, It’s like meeting up with my own geekery experts for pastries and hot chocolate after work to hear the latest scoops from wonderful works of genre. I deeply appreciate Cher’s punk rock personality, Courtney’s take-no-prisoners enthusiasm and Preeti’s positivity all of which create a progressive and preserved space to be geek. Keep up the good fight and thanks.
Firstly, this podcast is worth listening to for Preeti's giggles in the background. It's delightful. I admit, I started backwards with most recent episodes since I heard Evie from the Mummy was mentioned, but I soon knew I loved the podcast. Feminist geek discussions with an ensemble, BOOK recommendations, con coverage - what's not to love?
I’ve waited too long to review, but I couldn’t help it, I was too busy catching up on ALL the episodes! Now maybe I can get some work done... more
