Tuck chats with actor and writer Ryan Ken (they/them). Topics include:
- Why a TikTok can be more useful than a DEI training
- Using fashion strategically as a fat, Black, queer, nonbinary person
- When astrology can be reminiscent of Evangelical Christianity
- Why masculinity, not femininity, felt fragile and delicate as a child
- Plus: classical violin, Last Week Tonight, and moving beyond allyship
