Summary

NICOLE IS BACK, Y'ALL!!! And to celebrate, we've brought on a guest who's near and dear to our hearts: writer, director, and queer-space-creator Gina Young, who has been referred to *multiple* times on the pod as "L.A.'s Lesbian Godfather." Gina tells the squeal-inducing story of her first girl/girl kiss, and discusses making herself more femme for the purposes of dating, despite feeling like her gender identity is closer to "paper bag/bowl of oatmeal." Also, riot grrrl, the Lesbian Archives, and MORE!

0:00.0	Oh, hello, everybody.
0:08.7	Welcome to coming out with Lauren and Nicole.
0:11.9	We are a weekly podcast where we have on queer folks from all walks of life.
0:16.4	They tell us the tales of how they came out to friends, family, and the world at large.
0:21.1	Because who doesn't love a coming out story?
0:25.3	Whose voice is that?
0:27.4	I'm back. I'm back, everybody. It's Nicole, in case you forgot what my voice sounded like,

0:45.0	It is me in the flesh now with a seven-week-old baby.
0:50.3	Oh, my goodness.
0:52.7	Life has been crazy. But for those of you who do not follow me on the
0:58.1	socials, I gave birth on 12321, so 1-2-321, which is super cool, to a little baby named Leif Kim.
1:30.7	That is his first and middle name. And after my sister. And he is a joy. He is very easy. He is waking me up every three hours during the night, which is not so joyful, but I'm used to it now. And yeah, life is good. And if you, if you do want to follow me, I am posting an obscene number of baby pictures, which I genuinely
1:36.3	fooled myself into thinking I would not be that person. And now I am that person. So I promise I
1:42.5	won't always do that, but it's going to be like that for a little while.
1:45.1	So anyway, I'm back.
1:46.8	Hi.
1:47.3	Yay!
