There Are No Girls on the Internet
5.0/5
Critic Rating
Marginalized voices have always been at the forefront of the internet, yet our stories often go overlooked. Bridget Todd chronicles our experiences online, and the ways marginalized voices have shaped the internet from the very beginning. We need monuments to all of the identities that make being online what it is. So let’s build them.

"More than 50% of the population may have no difficulty imagining the hardships of being a woman on the internet. But this iHeart Radio series, hosted by Bridget Todd, not only examines how online spaces can be anywhere from awkward to outright hostile for women – it retells the history of the internet from the perspective of the female innovators and culture-creators who are building it."

"Listen, we love Reply All as much as anyone, but a show about the internet hosted by two white dudes is bound to leave out some crucial perspectives. Host Bridget Todd gives the under-recognized women who build and experience technology a much-needed spotlight, both through interviews as well as her own critical analysis in There Are No Girls on the Internet."

"The conversation is a great representation of this new podcast’s strengths, centering the overlooked voices that helped shape the internet landscape. Todd is an excellent host and, as a woman of color, brings her own unique perspective to the series. Any listener interested in broadening their understanding of intersectionality and internet culture will find themselves drawn to TANGOTI."
