So many people upgraded their Patreon memberships, wrote in with bestie esstays, connected in the Discord, and brought so much joy to our week. Asking for support is hard! And you all made it easy for us. Guess we’ll keep making the pod :/
Welcome back to Swamp Person! Today we welcome our first GUEST. Her name is Jenny Hunter, and she’s a labor lawyer and writer based in DC. And we are so excited to be answering some important questions about LABOR UNIONS + THE SUPREME COURT.
Today we have a listener question coming in from one Lindy W. of the Washington State area: How come sometimes the Supreme Court issues a ruling that doesn’t make us want to claw our eyeballs out? Sometimes Clarence Thomas decides NOT to p*ss in our mouths??? Is that on purpose?
We just want to say thank you to everyone who has been tuning into the live stream so far! We have given away copies of Adult Braces, we have read your essays, and we have fallen in love with each and every one of you!! If you haven’t yet tuned in, we have ONE MORE livestream TONIGHT!!! Join us on Youtube! See you here at 8pm ET // 5pm PT!!!!! https://www.youtube.com/@textmebackpod/streams
