This week Roxane Gay, author of the new memoir ‘Hunger,’ joins Rookie contributor Jenny Zhang for a conversation about bodies, ambition, and fighting loneliness through reading.
Then, host Tavi Gevinson gets her tarot cards read by author of ‘Modern Tarot’ Michelle Tea. Plus, illustrator and comic artist Jillian Tamaki answers your questions for our recurring segment ‘Ask a Grown,’ and we hear how a Rookie listener came out to her family.
Each week on the Rookie Podcast we'll interview people we admire: artists, writers, musicians, filmmakers, activists. We'll also spotlight the work of Rookie readers (now listeners!) and contributors. We'll discuss creativity, pop culture, feminism, activism, self-care, love, friendship, and more.
