Specials, racism and violence towards children
This episode is heavy yet hilarious. Tw: racism, physical violence, brief mentions of sexual assault, really everything bad comes up in this episode. Helen recounts horrible racist incidents that were normalized throughout Catholic school. Then, Helen and Eilish recount stories of crazed co-curricular teachers, two of which were violent towards students with no repercussions. If you make it until the very end, there's a huge plot twist. Audio effects from Pixabay.

It really did us no favors down the line, but we're (still) figuring it out! In this episode we'll be unpacking the Fully Alive curriculum and providing honest opinions about the stigma + shame surrounding sex in the Catholic Church.
