A Midol Vape Would Slap (with Rachel Wolfson)

This week, Liz sits down with Rachel — comedian, stuntwoman, and the first female cast member of Jackass — for a conversation that is somehow both deeply unhinged and deeply moving. They talk about what it actually means to choose pain, why women have been choosing pain since before it was a franchise, and why emotional pain will always hit harder than licking a taser. If this episode made you feel seen, made you laugh, or made you text a friend "omg listen to this" — that's the whole point.
