Listen Later

The Feels (https://www.netflix.com/ca/title/80222256) is a Netflix movie about a lesbian bachelorette party that goes awry when one of the brides admits she's never had an orgasm! It's a comedy with very dry humor that sucker punched Lin with all the feelings right at the very end. She recommends it!
Adib Khorram’s Darius the Great Is Not Okay (https://adibkhorram.com/) is a YA novel about a mixed raced teenager who discovers more about his Iranian identity. It delves into the difficult topics of diasporic identity and clinical depression with a lot of heart and gentleness. Margrit binged it twice in a row and recommends it enthusiastically. CW for depression, bullying, and self-harm ideation.
Question of the Episode: Have you ever had the opportunity of experiencing a certain part of your identity for the first time? What did that look like/feel like?
