Episode 201: Nobody's coming to save us featuring Gretchen Felker-Martin
IT’S THE END OF AN ERA! BoC is closing out our six year run with one helluva interview! Episode 201 features Gretchen Felker-Martin in conversation with Cygne Noire and S.E. Fleenor. Gretchen discusses her novels including Black Flame, Cuckoo, and Manhunt, as well as the cancellation of her series Red Hood. We get into tracing the threads of sensuality in trans horror, how trans people create space for one another, and the beauty of creating community in the face of fascism. What a way to end the show!

We typically end these notes with a request to give to an organization and/or mutual aid fund. In this, our final episode, we’re going to ask you do a little work to research a mutual aid fund near you or find one of the many mutual aid requests active on BlueSky and other social media sites--we are the only ones that will save each other. We are the only ones who will take care of us.
