• 001:13 Brief personal transition story
• 007:58 Thank you
• 009:05 Interview with Jennifer Landuis - Director of Social change at The Idaho Coalition Against Sexual & Domestic Violence
• 138:35 Mya Byrne, American Dream (so far away)

My guest for this episode is Jennifer Landuis, she is the Director of Social Change at the Idaho Coalition Against Sexual & Domestic Violence.  This conversation may be difficult for some listeners as it is a frank discussion on the work Jennifer is doing in combatting sexual and gender violence.  The conversation takes a few detours on the way, we touch a bit on her Christianity and social justice and getting deeper the conversation turns to why we sometimes use the term gender violence in lieu of domestic violence, what her recommendation is if you come across an abuse situation in public, and how to find resources in your area.  This is a pretty long conversation, and a conversation which was over much too quickly.  I hope you enjoy this episode, and while I hope no one listening is in a place where they need any of the resources Jennifer provides, the resources Jennifer and I discuss are in the show notes, they are right here for those that do.

Jokes!

• Ghosts don't have gender
  They're. . .

        Non-boo-nary

• Q. Why are most monsters covered in wrinkles?
  A. Have you ever tried to iron a monster
• Q: What do you get when you drop a pumpkin? 
  A: Squash
  • this one is actually ironic because technically a pumpkin is a type of squash, like Libby's Pumpkin that I use for my pumpkin pie is made from squash
  • Also, always remember, jokes are more funny when they come with footnotes!
