11. A Compliment in Jamaica, a Slur in America with Eva Evans | GAYDHD with Emma Willmann

Comedian Eva Evans joins for a sharp, funny conversation about saying the wrong thing online and the people waiting to punish you for it. Eva breaks down what happened when a follower told her a word she'd grown up hearing as a compliment in Jamaica was actually rooted in an ethnic slur — and how posting the apology publicly, hoping to help other people learn, turned into the thing she regrets most.

They get into the self-righteousness of "how did you not know that," the impossibility of code-switching without getting dragged for it (see: calling a Jamaican TRN a "social security number"), why outrage outperforms everything else in the algorithm, and how to protect your peace when the comments never stop. Plus: Eva's three-year process writing a joke about dating a trans guy that would actually land, leaving Christianity, getting into crystals, stress that shows up in your body, Jamaican beauty standards vs. American self-doubt, and the Bob Marley mix-up that turned Emma bright red on stage.

Plus an Am I the Asshole about a friend who sold a concert ticket after the buyer wouldn't pay up.
