Hello for 2020! It's a new year, and Sexuali-tea is bringing you new content. In this episode, Lysa and Jade discuss the decade-and-a-half old game series Yakuza. Content warnings for transphobia, transphobic slurs, misgender, rape and sexual violence, and homophobia. There is a little issue in the first half of the episode where I dropped the microphone for a second, and I tried fixing it but it's still noticeable, so apologies for that! There aren't many spoilers for the game series as Jade kept most of it purposefully vague but if you're unsure and don't want to be spoiled at all I'd suggest giving this one a miss.
