Death, Sex & Money - Sex-Positive Parents, Crass Grandparents, and a Weird and Wonderful Childhood

Death, Sex & Money - Sex-Positive Parents, Crass Grandparents, and a Weird and Wonderful Childhood

When comedy writer Tamara Yajia talks about her childhood, she’s sometimes unsure what tone to strike. Her new memoir Cry for Me Argentina: My Life as a Failed Child Star depicts a very fun nuclear family with parents and grandparents who are loud, crass, and sex-positive. There are hilarious moments and situations that seem wildly inappropriate.

In this week’s episode, Tamara tells Anna about the ups and downs of her childhood, which was spent in both Argentina and the U.S., and what she wishes her parents had done differently.

This episode was produced by Cameron Drews.
