Fluidity w/ Mae Martin - Ep. 134

Pride month is here! We wouldn't be where we are today if it wasn't
for the brave Black and Brown trans women who rioted against police
brutality. That brutality maybe have eased for the queer community
(it's definitely still there), but as many of you know, it never
let up for the Black communities in our country. There's no better
way to celebrate pride than by participating in the fight for
justice. There are many ways to get involved, and there is no
excuse for sitting silent on the sidelines. Let's work together and
make real, lasting change. #BlackLivesMatter Comedian/Writer/Actor
and all-around queer darling Mae Martin joins us to dyke out about
fluidity this week. You all know Mae from their show Feel Good
(stream it on Netflix, Channel 4) and hilarious comedy. They often
talk about gender and sexuality on stage, so we loved having the
chance to dive in deeper into that conversation. We talk about the
value of labels and how things are changing over time. Please
stream Feel Good and check out Mae's book Can Everyone Please Calm
