Episode Synopsis

It's the Season 3 premiere! In this episode, Brynn talks about something very close to her heart-- adoption--through the lens of the play, CHILD by Abbey Fenbert. We learn the basic history of adoption in America, common adoption traumas, and the evolution of the family; Edie Pierce gives a heartfelt and hilarious performance as Lady; and we confront our ideas of love, ritual, culture, and family as Brynn discusses the thematic messages in Fenbert's work. If you like dark comedy, brutal honesty about hard topics, and happy endings that make you cry, this one's for you!
