Sinopsis
This week show favorites Mary Zee and Kate Anderson are back for a Full Disclosure spooktacular! We start things off by talking about offensive Halloween costumes, including parents dressing their kids as Ray Rice. Naturally that leads us to talking about Gawker's "Lena Dunham's Race Problem" think piece, which literally advocates that Lena Dunham singlehandedly dismantle racism. This leads the crew to discuss if artists and writers are obligated to confront social justice movements, and how many of those who've tried to encounter equal criticism. Then Nick Palm hops on to discuss the video of the racist SF tour guide that's been making the internet rounds. Finally, we wrap things up by talking about the sad news that The Lexington Club, one of (if not the only) dedicated lesbian bar in San Francisco is being forced to close its doors. Eric recalls his first experience at the Lex, and we talk about the gentrification and the changing San Francisco landscape. A reminder to please help support the show and VISI
