Put on the kettle, because the incredible and talented Jen Richards (Netflix's Disclosure, HBO's Mrs. Fletcher, Emmy-nominated Her Story) joins us this week to talk about the beverage that dates back to 2732 B.C.: Tea! Jen is a writer, actress, and activist whose morning routine involves brewing some tea with her own special touches to complement her mood. We talk about how we were introduced to tea, why it's inherently queer, and the different times and places we've enjoyed it. If your not into tea, you might feel your curiosity brewing as we dyke out about this versatile and comforting beverage. Plus, Jen gives us the scoop on her recent engagement, and tells us what she's been up to in quarantine. But before tea time, we talk about the outdoor comedy crackdown, the attacks on Kamala Harris, Carolyn's big "gayest thing" moment, and the one topic that Carolyn promised to never talk about again. And, we finally reveal the new name for our listeners!
