Journalist Bianna Golodryga and Trailblazer Anita Verma-Lallian

Happy Women's History Month! Penni interviews Emmy Award-winning journalist, CNN anchor, and senior global affairs analyst, Bianna Golodryga, for her new book, Don't Feed the Lion, a middle grade novel that courageously confronts antisemitism and hate through the lens of middle schoolers, opening the door for honest dialogue between children and the adults who care for them. Penni then sits down with Anita Verma-Lallian, a trailblazing first-time producer, entrepreneur, and investor, who speaks about Camelback Productions, Arizona's first South Asian, female-owned film company and how she is rewriting the playbook for grassroots film financing.Penni and Tammy shout out outstanding women, such as Sigourney Weaver, Shonda Rhimes, and the women nominated for the upcoming 98th Academy Awards.Plus, Katie invites us to the 46th Annual Muse Awards, honoring Actor, Founder, CEO, and Investor Gwyneth Paltrow, Actress and Singer Audra McDonald, Sex and the City Producer Jane Raab, Journalist Joy Reid, Real Women Have Curves Director Patricia Cardoso, WNBA Athlete and Lupus Advocate Izzy Harrison, and Actress and Down Syndrome Advocate Jamie Brewer. To be featured on the podcast email us at [email protected].
