Episode 77: Did Rain Dove Fake A Hate Crime? (Unlocked Premium Episode, But In Your Premium Feed, Oh God I Can Explain...)

Hey guys -- it's me. Jesse. (Singal.)I think I instigated some confusion this week. My thought process was Well, this isn't a new episode to patrons, so I'm not going to drop it in the premium feed. Then a lot of people were confused as to why they weren't seeing a new episode this week, and I couldn't tell whether there was a genuine technical issue or people were responding to not seeing an episode in their premium feeds. I remain confused -- even more so than usual. ANYWAY. Here's this week's episode. It's a rerun. I probably should have just stuck it in here to keep everything simple and clear and continuous. Sorry to pop into your feeds without a new episode, but you guys will have both a new early free episode and a new premium one by late Friday or Saturday, so hang in there!The show itself: Katie and Jesse discuss Katie's mushroom hunting, the downfall of @piney_the (the latest -- and most hilariously incompetent -- Twitter account run by a white person pretending to be a person of color), and Rain Dove, the nonbinary model, activist, and Instagram celebrity who appears to make a lot of stuff up.
