Podcasting News gave my new collaborative podcast, ShowGirls, a little writeup yesterday. Last year they also carried the “controversial” PodShow press release, the 7 Hot Women of Podcasting, that inspired the show concept. Honestly, what the heck is so upsetting about “hot women” anyway? Since when did podcasting go P.C.?

7 women of podcasting have banded together for Podshow’s Showgirls, a new podcast starring Cali Lewis from Geekbrief TV, Share from Rock and Roll TV, KFC from the Podchick podcast, Anji Bee from the Chillcast, SoccerGirl from SoccerGirl Incorporated and Karla and Karen from Rumor Girls along with moderator Franklin McMahon.

“It’s evident that in the past year female podcasters have become a huge force in this new media arena” says producer Franklin McMahon, “each of these women already produce very popular shows on their own. This new program gives them a chance to let their hair down and chat, and it also gives listeners a treat by featuring their favorite podcast stars…multiplied by seven.”

Topics include the Showgirls’ insights on everything from world events, to entertainment, to technology as well as a behind the scenes look at what it takes to produce their podcasts.
