Sisterhood in Action

The Sistas recorded this episode with the amazing Linda Park right after the 2024 U.S. elections. It’s a continuation of a deeper, more emotional sister talk we had before the show. We dive into our love for Hoshi Sato, what it was like growing up as an immigrant, and our unforgettable experiences on the Star Trek Cruise. Huge thanks to Linda for sharing her heart with us. We hope this conversation resonates with you as much as it did with us.
