Episode description

This week Katelyn and Oliver-Ash interview Emily VanDerWerff about her article about the fallout from the story "I Sexually Identify as an Attack Helicopter" and the devastating impact it had on the talented writer Isabel Fall. The conversation touches on the way the Twitter algorithm encourages these kinds of pile ons, what our responsibility is, transmisogyny and so much more.
