The Cassandra Project | The Big F*cking Feelings Podcast | S2 Ep.3

Jenna von Oy and Ashley Robyn Season 2 Episode 3

In this episode of the Big F*cking Feelings podcast, hosts Jenna von Oy and Ashley welcome filmmaker Barclay DeVeau to discuss the Cassandra Project, a trilogy of films that highlight the importance of women's voices and the dangers of being disregarded. The conversation flows from personal anecdotes and friendship to the challenges faced by women in various fields, including filmmaking. The trio emphasizes the need for systemic change and the power of storytelling in advocating for women's rights. They also share their experiences with gaslighting and the importance of community support in grassroots projects.

The Cassandra Project is a scripted trilogy of short films that exposes the dangerous reality of what happens when women aren’t believed. Three films. Three women. Three warnings. And one terrifying truth: ignoring women’s voices puts everyone at risk.

Inspired by creator and filmmaker Barclay DeVeau’s own medical gaslighting ordeal—months of fighting for a diagnosis while doctors dismissed her pain—the series amplifies a story far too many women know firsthand.

Born from lived experience and shaped by countless silenced voices, The Cassandra Project is a powerful call to pay attention, believe women, and understand the life-or-death stakes of being dismissed.
