Ep. 11 Lisa “T.I.” Jenkins: The Whitest, Blackest

Lisa Jenkins: Producer | Project Manager | Nerd

It’s The Nerd Out Podcast crossover as I talk with one of my favorite peeps and tribe member, Lisa “ Totally Inappropriate” Jenkins. We discuss our origin story, how because of her name, people assume she is Black, how we are both unfortunately part of the dead moms club and about how she was able to rally a group of us women from different parts of her life, to write postcards to swing states and so much more. There are tears, real tears, from laughing super hard and tears from remembering super hard timers.
