Show Notes

Will chats with professor and author Cait McKinney about their book, I Know You Are, but What Am I? In it, Cait explores the cultural legacy of Pee-wee Herman and his beloved cult television show. They show how the “children’s show” perhaps prepares us for some of our current societal challenges, and how queer people relate to Pee-wee now.
