Throughout the month of December, here on Lean Out, we’ve been having conversations with the independent journalists that we admire. 

Today, Tara is happy to welcome back to the podcast a writer and thinker whose work kept us sane during the pandemic.

Meghan Daum is an essayist and author. She’s a former columnist for the L.A. Times, host of The Unspeakable podcast, and with Sarah Haider, co-host of the podcast A Special Place In Hell.
