This week on Kristin Knows Blank, I’m joined by the insightful and inspiring Mackenzie Dunham—therapist, activist, and all-around truth-teller. We talk about the biggest misconceptions surrounding trans youth, how parents can create truly safe spaces, and the pure joy of watching kids thrive when they’re free to be themselves.
It’s a powerful, heartfelt, and surprisingly funny conversation about identity, allyship, and acceptance. Whether you're a parent, an educator, or just a human who wants to do better—this episode is for you.

This week on Kristin Knows Blank, I’m re-airing one of my favorite episodes with the one and only Nina West—drag icon, activist, and absolute joy factory.
 
But before we revisit that hilarious and heartfelt chat, I want to spotlight something serious. Nina recently posted a powerful video calling for action against Ohio House Bill 245, a dangerous piece of legislation that threatens the rights and freedoms of drag performers and LGBTQ+ folks. So this episode kicks off with her important message and a reminder that joy is resistance—but resistance also requires action.
 
Then, stick around for the full throwback episode where we talk drag, Disney, and the dazzling brilliance that is Nina West.
 
Watch Nina’s call to action, then enjoy this encore conversation. And as always, don’t forget to subscribe on YouTube, leave a comment, and join the Lesbian Army on Patreon.
