2.05 Public Relationships

Being in a public relationship isn't just the joys of ambitious4ambitious. There's also the matter of boundaries and privacy. Drew and her girlfriend only have a small amount of fame so this week we've brought on someone in an even more gaymous power couple: Grace Lavery. You may know Grace from her memoir Please Miss, from her various writings on the internet, or, if you're really niche, as your former professor at Berkeley. And you may know Grace's husband Danny Lavery from his books such as Something That May Shock and Discredit You and co-founding a little website called The Toast.

We talked to Grace about her relationship with Danny, how she navigates public opinion, and being a young trans elder. And first! We play a game called Second Moves where Christina has to respond to theoretical opening lines on Raya — yeah, that's right, she's on Raya.
