episode 422: Tough on the Outside, Nice on the Inside (Ep 422 - Pokémon/José)
On the last episode of Sewers of Paris, we heard from Max Miller, host of the YouTube series Tasting History the book of the same name. This week, we’re revisiting my 2020 conversation Max’s partner José, who as a kid was a shy gay nerd before he grew up to be … also a shy gay nerd. But one who helped launch Disney Plus, who now cohosts a YouTube series of his own, created a life for himself he could never have imagined when he was young.
Also: A quick reminder that I’ve got a book of my own about to come out — Hi Honey, I’m Homo — and I’ll be hosting live readings this month in New York, Chicago, Seattle, Portland, and we’re about to add Los Angeles to the itinerary.
