Roller Derby Coaching, Chocolate Making ...

Chris Gethard
About this episode

Raised by a zoologist in a house full of wild animals, this psychology professor’s life has remained just as untamed: coaching junior roller derby, a stint making high-end chocolate, parenting a trans kid, and that’s just for starters. Unpredictable but never aimless, her conversation with Gethard is just as wide-ranging as her life.
