Today I offer you the story of the time I met someone important to me. Did I will them into my life? Or was our destiny written into the ones and zeros of tumblr dot com…I don’t fucking know. Feat. Julian.

For this epi of NEW REC I'm joined by my good Judy Jordan for a chat on talk drag & queer nightlife.

Action in defense of trans lives now is an essential part of all movements for justice. There are over 400 bills pending in state legislatures across the United States that would ban health care for trans minors, ban trans women and girls from sports, ban trans people from restrooms, and ban schools and school staff from educating about history.

I’m so excited for the season 2 premiere to be tenderly ushered in alongside the season of romance. I am one lovesick fool & so i thought i’d i invite a kindred spirit onto the show to discuss matters of the heart and we usually do.

Nat Torres is a tv and film writer, with their most recent credits including Our Flag Means Death on HBO!!

In this episode, we discuss something i’ve wanted to since i re-entered the hellscape of dating apps—the elusive dating app voice prompt. Listen to part 1 to hear Nat and I unpack this sometimes sexy (mostly scary) form of voice memo.

I am running into a new year! And kissing this one goodbye with one last parting gift :) all love.

You know how people like to stretch their birthday to a birth-week, or birth-month? Well this... is my birth-life. Birth-life is a mindset. I've had a Happy Birthday sign hanging in my living room for a full year now.

Happy Birthday to New Recording. New Recording started first and foremost as a bridge to something that I felt like I lost capacity for: connecting to other people with depth. It’s been a whole year of connecting with not only my podcast guests but with the cherished people who reach out to let me know my work or stories have moved them in some way. Thank you for keeping me afloat. AND THANK you to everyone who sent me a voice memo for my birthday! I truly love each of you.
