Slamdance 2021 - Writer and Comedian Rekha Shankar from Hustle

Send us Fan MailWe couldn't stop smiling and laughing with comedian and writer Rekha Shankar who had an episodic called Hustle that was a part of this years Slamdance Film Festival.  Hustle features two women of color, working their crappy day jobs  in New York City and suffering with their big bosses. The hook of the show is that while they're living their everyday lives, they get to use their gaming "superpowers" - think getting points for using your standards badge when having to work with challenging colleagues or gold coins for using a smart comeback. It's a comedic way to look at the often racist and sexist routines women of color have to go through on a daily basis - and we loved it!Rekha was a breath of fresh air to speak with and we hope to have her on again soon for a Basic Bitch.  Thanks for listening!You can find Rekha Shankar at her website  and  Twitter !--Be well, stay safe, Black Lives Matter, AAPI Lives Matter, and thank you for wearing a mask. --Buy us a cup of coffee!Subscribe to our channel on YouTube for behind the scenes footage!Rate and review us wherever you listen to podcasts!Visit our website! www.bitchtalkpodcast.comFollow us on Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter.Listen every other Thursday 9:30 - 10 am on BFF.FMPOWERED BY GO-TO Productions Support the showThanks for listening and for your support!
