WAD Wrapped 2022

As the year comes to a close, we look back at the stories we thought were most memorable in 2022. We talk about the rising momentum of the labor movement, the politicization of drag, the overturning of Roe v. Wade, and the historic gains Democrats made in the midterm elections.

Show Notes:

WAD will be on a two-week break for the winter holidays. We’ll have a new episode on Tuesday, January 3rd!
