Is A Baby Part Of Dylan's Narrative?

On our season finale, we help guide our new friend Dylan as she struggles with fertility issues. Gale shares her own personal story of how she hopes to one day be a mother. Caroline leads us in an important conversation about Tig Notaro (because every conversation about Tig Notaro is important) and Anne asks (with the help of Neko Case), "Is a lioness not a lion motherfucker?"

Enjoy our last episode of season 1! We'll be back soon!
