Girls Running Shit: High Five Productions Featured Artist #2
"Girls Running Shit provides a safe space and platform to showcase the talents, businesses, and events of other women and seeing them flourish."

The listenership of podcasts grows exponentially every year. The list of excellent Pittsburgh podcasts grew last August when the Girls Running Shit podcast premiered, finding a home on Blog or Die Radio and Soundcloud. But Girls Running Shit isn't singularly a podcast. It is an expanding Pittsburgh brand, helmed by three creatives with a woman-centric vision.
The trio of Markeea (@MissKeea) Hart, Janita (@basicallynita) Kilgore, and Mia (@miarashawnmarshall) Marshall provide their opinions on a wide variety of topics with one goal in mind. Showcasing women. Girls Running Shit provides a safe space and platform to showcase the talents, businesses, and events of other women and seeing them flourish. But today, we are showcasing each of them, and their contribution to Pittsburgh's culture.
