Join Amanda, Becky, and Nicole this week for the July (or maybe August?) Twisterds Movie Club discussion about the 2022 Michelle Yeoh movie, Everything Everywhere All at Once.

193 - It Fell Into My Lap: What We’ve Been Doing This Summer

Join Amanda and Becky this week as they talk about a cocktail with no name, Andrew Garfield, and taking a podcast break because Becky is taking on two big projects at once. Then Becky talks with Asha Dahya about how Evengelicalism is conservative in the US (and not so much in Australia), how California's Prop 8 and Hobby Lobby got her thinking about abortion and religion, and why we should retire the terms "pro-life" and "pro-choice."
   
 
Follow Asha and her work on Instagram and Twitter @ashadahya and on her website ashadahya.com.
