MICHAEL ARCENEAUX: I Don't Want to Die Poor


Listen Later

This week, we remember the late, great Lady Red Couture, and discuss I May Destroy You and some queer Emmy noms.

Our guest this week is the very talented (and hilarious) writer Michael Arceneaux, author of I Can’t Date Jesus and his latest book, I Don’t Want to Die Poor. We talked about the racial disparities with student loan debt, his writing career, what it takes to write a book and get it published, and how to excel during a pandemic.
