Join us this week as Em continues to sit on their throne and Christine continues to project into the studio like the great Oz! Em takes us to Manila this week for the wild and vanishing story of Cornelio Closa and his potential alien encounters. Then Christine covers the heartbreaking and extremely recent murder of Dominique Fells in Philadelphia. If you have any information or want to donate to organizations protecting Black trans lives, please see the links below. Also, please normalize pronouns in 2020 and 2021 too... and that's why we drink!
