After a hugely successful debut season, podcasters and showgirls Kyla Musselman and Jennifer Thiessen are returning with an all-new season of Tits and Teeth Podcast.

But, in between the banter, we were having really important conversations.' 'We had no idea how people would respond to issues that go hand in hand with the theatre industry,' says Musselman, 'but talking to working artists about things like parenthood, wages, and equality became an accidental focus for the season. Finding out how much it meant to people inspired us to continue.'
