In brief: I say this pretty regularly, but I’m really, really excited about this show. I interviewed my friend Jesse Myerson a few months ago on why rent is so high (and so highly unnecessary altogether) and this week was able to chat with two of the folx involved with the 3rd annual Trans Day of Resilience: Asia-Vinae Preach Palmer and Kwan Moonlite. Big thanks to Forward Together (@FwdTogether) for connecting us!
Note: This show is available to stream and download for free so it can be accessible for everyone. If you’re able, consider becoming a supporter for as little as $1/month at PATREON or making a one-time donation at PAYPAL.me/KatieSpeak. Thank you!
