On this week’s bonus episode, Stephen is joined by actor, writer, and comedian Tess Rafferty. They discuss her wonderful Kat Kelly mystery series and how mysteries can provide a much-needed escape and catharsis during America’s slow creep toward fascism. 

You will hear:

  • The inherent interest and sexiness brought out in mystery stories
  • How the election in 2016 impacted Tess’ writing
  • How much of what we see in entertainment today is an impact of the Trump era of the past decade
  • And more!



Guest Info: 

Tess Rafferty: Writer for TV. Author of the Kat Kelly mystery series. Columnist for Dame and Ms. Day drinking enthusiast. Caftan aficionada. Yes, I was in that video where I called Trump supporters a bunch for racists.
