Tuck chats with visual artist and author Rani Som (she/her) about writing an exquisitely eggy memoir, coming out in her 40s, and exploring the inevitable failure of trans utopia.
Listen to the full episode on Patreon to hear discussions of growing up in Manhattan, working in architecture, drawing sex scenes (or not), Kate Bush, misanthropy, and the freaky pickle art on Tuck’s wall.
Find Rani at bishakh.com and @biche_bash. Apsara Engine and Spellbound are both available on Bookshop.org.
Get your Philly live show tickets and come hang out with Tuck, Mckenzee, Mattie, Calvin, Sadie Dupuis and moooore on December 3! Or else!
