New ways to navigate our new future.
A Sunday in September I hang out w one of my favorite memers (memists?) @infinitepiss! We talk memes, communism, and being trans.
I interviewed Joey Steel, host of the Dispatches From the Underground Podcast, earlier this summer.
This week I talk to photographer/artist Noah Fecks about growing up in New York, discovering your own aesthetic, and taking pics of naked people!Recorded in Red Hook Brooklyn on 09/02/2020.
I talk w owner (and bartender!) Claire Sprouse of Hunky Dory in Crown Heights, Brooklyn.We talk gratuity-free service, what the Hell is a PPP loan, and making pivots on a dime every week in the New New York.
I talk w my friend Sean Meade, a financial consultant who focuses on the restaurant industry and small business growth. Sean studied finance at Morehouse College.We talk about basic (and I mean basic economics) for folks like me who know nothing about all these concepts. Sean is a great guide for what's been going on right now, and helped me understand what the hell all the words in the news mean regarding money right now.A great crash course and I look forward to speaking with him again more in depth!
I talk to musician/activist Jim McHugh in Herbert Von King Park in BedStuy.Topics Covered- Anarchism- Music and its role in activism- Mutual Aid- Abolishing Work
I talk to Joyce McMillen in Harlem about Child Protective Services in NYC. This is one of the craziest things I've ever heard about.
Recorded this one 07/10/2020 in Long Island City in Queens.Christina and I talk sex work, therapy, crazy shit that's normalized in our world, and things we can do about that.
I talk w Neena, former floor manager of Champ's Diner. We talk about how normalized the awfulness of the bar/restaurant industry is. I think what's crazy about this episode is how not crazy any of this seems to someone who is in the industry. These are all awful practices, share this episode w folks who don't work in restaurants so they can see how terrible it is.
Talking w Teresa Johnson from Veggie Mom Club in Herbert Von King Park in BedStuy.
