Happy spooky season! Today, we are kicking off a two part series on Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein. Mackenna and Aubrey discuss the book and its major themes. And everyone will be shocked to hear that they spend a lot of time talking about masculinity and the male loneliness epidemic. But also, we spend a good bulk of the essay talking about Susan Stryker’s essay about transgender rage. Thank you to listener Alyssa for sending that along!
Also, we are joined today by a cast of talented actors to bring the words of Mary Shelley, Charles E. Robinson, and Susan Stryker to life. Thank you my friends for helping us out <3
