The Radiant Badass with Elizabeth Holmes
The Radiant Badass with Elizabeth Holmes is a conversational podcast hosted by Elizabeth Holmes. Drawing on her perspective as a GenXer raised on pop culture, she riffles on topics like books, music, and staying sane in a fast-changing world. The show feels like hanging out in a friend's basement and talking about whatever comes to mind.

enough is a decision, not an amount
Elizabeth came into this episode during a packed, entirely self-inflicted October calendar and zero inspiration to show for it — so she did what she always does when the muse doesn’t show: opened her running Notes app list of half-formed episode ideas.Buried in there was a quote she’d saved weeks ago and never managed to track down a source for: enough is a decision, not an amount. Which, as she p
prepare the kid, not the path
Elizabeth’s episode went out a bit late this time, and she’s taking the W anyway — one late episode in an entire year of hitting deadlines is a stat she’ll happily brag about.The actual holdup: a minor kerfuffle around her youngest’s actual travel day as they departed for their grand European tour — nothing dramatic, just first-time-flying-solo stuff.That’s separate from the real saga, which happe
invisible to whom, exactly?
Elizabeth showed up to this one running on fumes (maybe it was the equinox?), so she led with book recs instead of righteous fury: The Correspondent, a Cannon Beach impulse buy called Sipsworth that apparently defrosted something in her chest, and Ann Patchett’s Whistler, devoured in a single 24-hour fugue state.Then she got to the actual reason you’re here. A woman on Threads posted her list of e
Keep Your Torch
Elizabeth is still basking in the verdict from last episode: crying while singing along to Bikini Kill is, per popular vote, the most punk rock thing she’s ever done. She’ll take it.But that same day at Bumbershoot left a second souvenir: an offhand comment from her husband about “passing the torch,” which she responded to by kinda biting his head off and now she’s spending an entire episode expla

9 to 5 was a documentary
Rewatched 9 to 5 this weekend for the first time since I was a kid. Turns out I only remembered the pot-smoking revenge fantasy part. The actual radical bit — equal pay, job sharing, on-site daycare — is still fiction 46 years later. New episode on that, plus why Warner Bros shelving the Coyote vs. Acme movie is basically a real-life sequel to the plot.Subscribe for the rants the HR department wou
remembering the OG Radiant Badass
We lost Dolly Parton this week, and then Tim Curry followed right behind her. It’s the kind of loss that makes you feel the eclipse energy in your bones — a little bit 2016, a little bit too much all at once. This episode starts there: the grief, the parasocial ache of losing someone you never met but somehow knew, and a genuine send-off for the woman who refused to stay in her lane.Then, because
Kinda Chic, Actually Cooked
Okay so one of my friends suggested maybe I might want to rant about social medial’s “kinda chic” trend (thank Jesus if you don’t know what I’m talking about) and I felt an Aries rage rise up my spine like a fire alarm going off in my soul. She was right. You know the trend — “kinda chic to know your barista’s name,” kind of stuff.Ma’am.That’s not chic. That’s a caption generator having a stroke.N
Relatable Is a Scam
Black Diamond watermelon gets the hero's welcome it deserves, and then things get real. This week Elizabeth serves up a summer check-in — the watermelon, an HBO show she refuses to synopsize, an analog-life manifesto — before pivoting hard into a real-time dispatch from the enshittification files: apartment-hunting hellscapes, a rent algorithm that smells suspiciously like price fixing, and a Nord
Flipping the Channel
This week Elizabeth is riding out oppressive heat and apocalyptic wildfire smoke with real 2020 Flashback Energy, also included: a heroic 31-movies-in-31-days finish (two on the last day, no regrets), and the triumphant return of “cable,” which is not cable, but she’ll take it. Turns out the real prize isn’t the shows — it’s getting to flip mindlessly between them again instead of Committing to a

Somebody Has To Say It: Our Lifestyle Choices Show Up Earlier Than You Think
Elizabeth had one of those weird, overloaded months where the past just kept knocking. The astrology girlies gave her fair warning. Old coworkers popped back up out of nowhere. Then an obituary for the woman who mentored her early in her career (who was also kind of brutal about her dating life back then — honestly, fair). Then another obituary, this one for her childhood best friend’s dad, which
The July Plan I'll Probably Abandon (and That's Fine)
Elizabeth is, by her own admission, an indoor cat in summer — sunburns in 15 seconds, prefers her outside time at dawn or dusk. This July she built a whimsy plan: 31 movies, a boundaried digital detox, and a running list of little things that delight her, to make sure her summer felt “summery”. In this episode:* The 31-movies-in-July project: a fast no on Fitzwilly, a charming surprise in The Relu

It ended somewhere more serious.This episode, Elizabeth follows the thread from a Leap Frog product placement rabbit hole to something that's been sitting with her: for the first time in history, there will be kids who grow up barely playing with toys — not because they don't have them, but because something more add

For all the reasons, a quick trip to British Columbia resulted in Elizabeth’s media feeds being jammed with all kinds of indigenous art and culture content.
