Play episode
Alisson Wood

Author Alisson Wood stopped by the Jam Bunker to talk cats, feminism, her little sister, politics, more cats, and her brilliant memoir Being Lolita, which is “a coming-of-age memoir that shines a bright light on our shifting perceptions of consent, vulnerability, and power.”

While Alisson and Brad laugh quite a bit, this episode contains some discussions of violence and abuse. So, if you need, please skip this episode and we’ll see you on Thursday.
