Cassidy Anhorn (she/her) is a comedian, writer and producer. You may have seen her on stages around Vancouver and Canada, heard her on her JFL Originals tracks in their 2023 Album (which was named after her joke!) or on YVR Funny Season 2. Most recently, you can hear her right here with more queer joy and representation!
In this episode:
-We are secretly okay when plans get cancelled!
-I need to go to more queer events, period!
-The youth have inspired Cassidy to own being a lesbian and this is wonderful!
-Things have changed so much, and yet… so often there is still only one woman (OR NO WOMEN!?) on a comedy show. Ugh!
-Thank GOD for Linda Cardellini!
-This story involves a queer awakening in the middle of English class!
-I have no regrets about leaving social media, but thank goodness for Cassidy for filling me in with cool, queer celebrity gossip!
-There is no party like an LGBTQIA+ party!
-Which Spice Girl made you gay?
-SPOILER! This limelight-stealing story is flipped and Cassidy steals someone else’s. ICONIC!
