Season 1 Ep. 7: Featuring Danielle Hanson
Episode description
Melanie and Jennifer discuss the loss of Ruth Bader Ginsburg and how writers are necessarily political. Melanie interviews Danielle Hanson, a rad, Atlanta-based poet, whose poetry is oddly synchronous with a story-in-progress excerpt Jennifer shares about people's ashes that attend parties (Yes, you read that correctly). This one is a wild ride of puppetry, feminism, diversifying your reading list, activism, shipping fictional princes and first sons, and more!
