laughing through the pain | rae

TikToker and Barstool host Rae joins Avery for a raw and laugh-out-loud conversation recorded in New York City. Known for her unfiltered takes and chaotic humor, Rae opens up about everything from growing up on Long Island, to meeting (and losing) a half-brother she didn’t know existed, to navigating a toxic relationship and finding freedom in sobriety. 

The two bond over the dark stuff—family trauma, internet trolls, and heartbreak—and find a way to laugh through it all. Rae also shares her dreams for the future, her thoughts on leaving social media behind one day, and the new “friend” in her life who might be more than that. If you don’t already know and love her, you will by the end of this episode.
