Hello havoc wreakers and welcome back to our little dose of hope every week. If you're just joining us, I'm Lauren Shippen, creator of Two Thousand and Late and, in an effort to balance out all the shitty stuff the audio drama tackles, I talked with some incredible artists, creators, and activists who are grappling with our twisted reality and doing hella cool stuff to counteract the bad.

This week, I am completely honored to be talking with Jenny Pizer, Senior Director of Strategic Initiatives and Special Counsel to the CEO at Lambda Legal. If you're not familiar with their work, Lambda Legal is a civil rights organization focused on furthering the rights of LGBTQ+ people through impact litigation, education, and public policy work. Jenny is an extraordinary person who has dedicated her life and career to improving society for people like me - like so many of the people who worked on this show - and we talk about all the different ways to get at making things better and the challenges we face.

STEP 4: ARGUE WITH YOUR GIRLFRIEND (AND YOUR DEMON). Lie about your demon, ignore your new coworkers, and get a stiff drink. And if you run into your harasser, don't apologize this time. For anything.

This week, I'm talking with writer and educator Lux Alptraum, who has written about a myriad of fascinating topics, mostly focused around sex. Sex has always been a hot topic, but it feels particularly hot right now, as censorship rises and we see renewed attacks on queer people and women. I really enjoyed talking to Lux about how our conversation about sex has changed throughout the years.

STEP 3: MAKE WORK FRIENDS. Bond in the break room, volunteer to talk to your boss, and fail to actually make anything better. Cap off the whole day by really, really freaking out your girlfriend.

This week, I'm talking to TikTok sensation Meredith Lynch, who really knows how to find the funny in the worst bits of our society. I talk to her about how she got into exposing scams on TikTok, how she finds humor in grief, and how the wealth gap is the root of all evil. Check out the following links to keep up with everything that Meredith is doing and learn more about what we talked about!

STEP TWO: START A NEW JOB. Struggle with setting a combination for your locker, make a lukewarm ally, and, no matter what, do NOT talk about unions. Oh, also, be sure to avoid your girlfriend as much as possible.

STEP ONE: HARASS A LANDLORD. It doesn't have to be your landlord, just a landlord. Ideally, a guy you went to high school with who still hates your guts and is being unreasonable to your best friend from the job you no longer have.
