188: Archiving As Activism, Access To Information Matters, Criminy River DRAMA, and Bravo Updates!

June 10, 2020

Drink of the day: Candice was having a green juice, Colin had a tall boy Presidente cerveza, and Jesi was having a margarita! 
Colin Anderson and Candice Chetta are back with a special guest today! Jesi Taylor Cruz is joining us to chat about archival work as activism and how important it is to have access to information! 
Of course, Criminy River and Strug Boat are rich with the laughs and eyerolls! 
We couldn’t keep our motors boating if it wasn’t for the support of our incredible Patrons! If you like what you hear, please consider becoming a supporter of The Garbage Barge and help us keep doing what we do!
