This week we're talking about representation, both LGBT+ and beyond. We were very lucky to sit down with Max Currie, director and co-showrunner of Rurangi (now streaming on Hulu), an amazing new trans drama out of New Zealand.

Anyway, Rurangi is amazing, check it out. In this episode: News- 0:42 || Main Topic (Re...
