Comedian, actress, and all-around legend Margaret Cho explains why she’s focused on enlarging the story of American history by delving into anti-Asian violence in season two of her podcast, “The Margaret Cho.” She also gets real about pandemic life, the surprising upsides of virtual Pride celebrations, and how the LGBTQ+ community’s resilience during Covid echoes that of the ‘80s HIV/AIDS crisis. And we hear about her journey as an activist, including her outreach to AAPI groups—and Republicans—during the 2020 campaign. Plus: Important lessons from Joan Rivers, turning anxiety into action, and how laughter helps keep us alive.
