Embodied is a weekly podcast in which host and creator Anita Rao is on a mission to figure out what happens when we bring taboo topics — from estrangement to erotic photography — into the light to examine them with journalistic curiosity. Embodied embraces a feminist lens on subjects that largely impact women and genderqueer people and manifests the philosophy that the personal is political. This entry is a montage of five episodes from 2022: Estranged, Plucked, Secured, Reimagined and Posed.
Host Anita Rao speaks with married couple Patty and Kate Redman about Kate’s transition at the age of 57. Patty and Kate reflect on changes to their sex life, social circles and religious ties over their 28 years together.
