A few weeks ago, I talked to my friend Kali Tripodis, a fellow Little Monster, about Gaga’s new album and how it’s ushering us into a new age. Originally, I wanted this episode to kick off pride month–but more important things came up. We focused on the fight for equality instead of giving in to […]
This week, I wanted to talk to one of my dear friends, because she has been an ER nurse for the past 13 years. Sarah has seen a lot of inequality for years working in North Philadephia as an ER nurse. I knew she had something important to say as a health professional and an […]
We continue to amplify black voices this week by sitting down with comedian Shem Pennant of UCB. He’s also from South London, so I wanted to know how he was feeling “during these tumultuous times.”
Last week, I sat down as a guest on the Correctly Mistaken Podcast, hosted by Wesley Cherry. Things were still pretty raw when we spoke, and I just wanted to let him talk about how he was feeling. In a way, I ended up interviewing him on his own show.
Slightly Special is a mixed-race military man and I knew I had to talk to him to see his viewpoint on the current apocalypse. I had to have him on the show. I was glad I did–because we were able to listen to each other and talk openly about how we felt.
I wanted to talk to Anna about a few articles she’s written for The New York Times. Anna’s pieces often deal with interpersonal relationships with some fun lifestyle tips. In the episode, she tells us how to mediate difficult conversations with your roommates and the phenomenon of zoom weddings.
This week, I check in with my friend David Bluvband. He’s been living alone in his studio apartment since the end of March and that can do things to a person. We talk about apocalyptic fiction and how it’s mirroring real life, shaving your head, and night eating.
I thought this would be the perfect opportunity to introduce you to one of my FAVORITE podcasts, The Unimaginary Friendcast. The Unimaginary gang had the opportunity to sit down with Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal of Washington’s 7th District.
In this time of perpetual despair, there are humans still reaching out for love and affection, and Holmes Rackleff is among them. She’s the host of the podcast, The Revolving Door, where she talks to people about sex and relationships. She asked me to sit down with her to talk about some sexy things, and […]
This week I have a really awesome guest. Frank Conniff, AKA TV’s Frank from Mystery Science Theater 3000, talks to me about how he’s holding up in quarantine and what we might expect from the artform once things start opening up again.
