Episode 75: Citizen's Arrest (Encore)

With the holiday season comes more awkward conversations with family, so we're bringing you an encore episode of our first ever call-in show where you, dear listeners, share with us how you're talking gender, race, politics, and more with your parents, aunties, in-laws, step-siblings, nephews, and more.

We also got our homie Gene Demby of NPR's Code Switch on the line to talk through the now-public email exchange between Margaret Cho and Tilda Swinton about whitewashed Hollywood roles.

God it feels good to hear these episodes again, feels like a cozy sweater. Wish we could get another round…of episodes (I’ll see myself out) But if nothing else, we got these leftovers.

I thought I was the only one who re-visited this podcast. In a time where you can throw a stone and hit 5011 horrible podcasts this show is still a breath of fresh air. Just revisited to get a mental reset. It’s feels so good to hear their genuine laughs and be able to laugh a long as well. They certainly don’t make Podcasts like they used to. Thank you!
At least bring back the newsletter
