Episode 478: Let's talk about interesting heroines!

The Blasters & Blades Podcast

We've got a slightly controversial panel topic today, be warned! We’re talking about interesting female heroines with some awesome authors and creatives! We’ve got Chloe Garner, Declan Finn, Jana S Brown (aka Jena Rey), JF Posthumous (Jennie), Katie Cross and Melissa McShane on to talk nerdy with us. We rambled from what a heroine was, to which ones we admired from film, television and literature. Oh, and we dropped a lot of books for you to check out! We kept it to a tight hour, but sadly this topic was too big for one panel so there will be more opinions from this lot! This was a fun interview, so check out this episode. Lend us your eyes and ears, you won't be sorry!!
