Aflevering Bonus - ???? “It’S Not A Fucking Salad!1!”: A 2021 Special With Keguro Macharia

Happy New Year darling listeners! We wanted to start 2021, a New Year in most parts of the world, on a positive note, so we decided to record a bonus episode with one of our absolute faves on the Twitterverse, the one and only ??Keguro Macharia??, lover of Flowers?? and Romance Novels??, hater of Cabbage??. We talk romance, Harold Robbins??, diaspora, Bridgerton, couscous, diasporic injera, Jane Austen, Mills & Boon, freedom, thinking across different geo-histories, shared vernacular and so much more! We highly recommend you - in his own words - to "buy, borrow, steal, gift, read, teach, and think" with his incredible work: Frottage: Frictions of Intimacy across the Black Diaspora.
