OH! HEY KIRI!

"Full-time internet bellend" Katy Montgomerie joins Kiri to talk about battling idiots on Twitter, fighting for feminism and trans rights, and feeling alive in the mosh pit at metal shows.

Kiri talks to author Sapphira Olson about her new collection of poetry, The Girl in the Garden. Sapphira shares the history of her writing career, how she came to write poems, and even reads a few selections from her book.

It's a classic Queer & A episode! Kiri discusses your questions about confidence in transition, how to make your brother feel special, what to do if you've said hurtful things, and talking to yourself while driving.

This episode features an hour long conversation with a trans man, Sam, and a trans woman, Laurel, comparing & contrasting their transition experiences from awareness to awkwardness. Whether it's clothes or inclusive spaces, the transition journey is full of surprises, victories, and unexpected gifts.

On this week's episode of Oh Hey Kiri! I talk with Dr. Emmy Zje, professor, teacher, and prolific tweeter, about her mission to make personal, internal identity a lot less mystifying through science, stories of experience, strong, supportive community. She's the Cajun Queen without an ounce of mean, she's Dr. Emmy Zje, everybody!

An audio essay on the subject of shame. What if we could see what is innately good in ourselves and others? Who could we be, what could we achieve if we believed in our worthiness, rather than in our unworthiness?

This week, Kiri sits down for a conversation with author & podcaster Jason LaVelle about starting out on the journey of identity, raising a queer family, and why community matters.
