This episode was so much fun to say the least. Kim Kelly, badass author, labor journalist, former VICE staffer, circus act, roadie and everything in between, shared her experience with putting ectrodactyly on a performing stage and traveling across towns as what sideshows called the “Lobster Girl.” Then writing about the beauties and flaws of heavy metal turned into labor rights and disability justice pieces and recently led to a book tour for her newest book, ‘FIGHT LIKE HELL: The Untold History of American Labor.'
