Description

PART 1: Ain't no quotas here at Cancel Me, Baby. This is the honest conversation we deserve. Pop culture and advertisers are really proud of themselves for railing "representation" in our heads so much so that we've heard the word more than our own thoughts. But how do people on the other side of it actually feel? Namely, ones with disabilities? I'm joined by two badasses, who happen to be friends and Cancel Me, Baby fans, to find out. Chris Koch (@ifican.chriskoch) was born with partially developed limbs, is a Tedx and motivational speaker, and will happily screw with people who act weird around him. Caitlyn Pallas  (@caitlynpallas) is technically quadrapelegic, beat stage 3 lymphoma, and prefers the "JUST ASK, don't stare" approach when she's in a wheelchair. So I ask the questions you want to know answers to. Is "disability" even the right word? Are they put in some kind of box? Can people around them lighten up? And so much more.

"Don’t tell me what I can & can’t say." Veteran journalist Taylor Ferber wrote this in her unprecedented Playboy feature, challenging the idea that brains & beauty are mutually exclusive, as one of the only people who both posed & was a featured writer. After years as Hollywood's "Celebrity Whisperer" who interviewed & humanized the biggest A-listers at every major event, her irreverent show empowers viewers to think freely outside rules around wokeism, conservatism, men, women, media, & culture, & influential figures (like Blake Shelton, Dave Portnoy, Lake Bell) to say what they really think.
