About this episode

Best selling author, publisher, and professor, Roxane Gay, joins Michael Kosta to talk about her new e-book, “Stand Your Ground: A Black Feminist Reckoning with America’s Gun Problem,” her decision to buy a gun, and why only heterosexual, white men are allowed to exercise their Second Amendment rights. Also, stand-up comedian Hannah Berner discusses her Netflix special, “We Ride At Dawn,” and how she’s finding her own path in comedy that doesn’t rely solely on late nights at comedy clubs with questionable dudes.
