After a brief break during a global pandemic and a long-overdue uprising for Black Lives Matter, we’re back in full force for our third season! Jonah and Renessa recap the last couple of months in life, work, resistance and revolt. Renessa swears a lot today and apologizes in advance to any of her wonderful clients who listen.

Our guest for this episode is MARGARET CHO, a five-time Grammy & Emmy nominated comedian, actor, award-winning activist, author, musician, and fashion designer, and queer icon! (Need we say more?) We discuss systemic racism in the U.S., quarantine activities, her postponed “Fresh Off the Bloat” comedy tour, her podcast The Margaret Cho, dating apps and her fuck phone, meditation, and making time for what you want to do as a creative and in life. 

Interview with Margaret begins at 00:23:13
