On today’s kick-ass bonus episode, we have a real treat - Eve’s cousin Jenny talks all about turning the loss of her father to HIV into a very personal YA novel. Set in 1991 during the AIDS crisis, and revealed through sketches, journal entries & the music we grew up on, hear how sharing her story became an authentic statement about GenX for a younger generation.
