We're back after our summer break! This week, we're joined by special guest Claudia Morales, a writer and digital content specialist based in Brooklyn. Her work has appeared in MTV News and Extra Crispy, among other publications. Claudia and I take a dive into Camp Laurence, the closest thing Little Women has to an anime beach episode. Among picnics, games of croquet, and a revealing game of 19th century Truth or Dare, Jo lets us know that she doesn't mind being a guy, as long as she's comfortable, and Laurie hints at how he really feels about his "dear fellow."
Also, as I mentioned in the show, Claudia's mom is currently battling cancer, and it would be so lovely if you'd swing over to her GoFundMe and contribute a few dollars for her care. Click here to learn more: https://www.gofundme.com/f/help-claudia-conquer-cancer.
