In this episode recorded a few weeks ago, Lagusta attempts to keep a friend. Is it possible to discuss politics with someone who disagrees with yours with nuance, without bitterness or rage? We don’t find the answer to this question.

Episode 14: On Friendship, Across The Oceanic Divide

Two female entrepreneurs on opposite coasts explore the challenge of living your values as a business owner and human being. Liz and Lagusta navigate the politics of food, feminism, money, work and culture with bracing honesty and compassionate skepticism.

Why the left isn’t as inclusive as it thinks, the actual difference between cancellation and accountability, why people still love prisons, and our recurring feature: what’s wrong with other vegans. Now with 100% less echo!
