## Resource

Comedian, writer, actor, and food creator Jordan Myrick joins Tawny Platis to make friendship bracelets while talking about food opinions, queer identity, moving constantly as a kid, and why Los Angeles drivers are actually kind. Jordan talks about: Growing up between South Florida and New Orleans and how food became central to their life Working in restaurants, studying acting, and balancing comedy, content creation, and food media all at once Why gay kids are secretly tiny adults with extremely refined interests Their deep love of John Waters, Food Network, photography, and mature “gay child” hobbies The brutal reality of freelance entertainment jobs and surviving without healthcare Their extremely strong opinions about off-leash dogs, bad hot takes, pudding, and cake The two also get into Vegas obsession, Cirque du Soleil deep dives, appendix horror stories, internet culture, parasocial relationships, and why people need to learn how to be wrong gracefully. Plus, Jordan shares why they think pudding is unfairly underrated, why biscotti is the true worst dessert, and how one Cirque du Soleil show completely changed their brain chemistry. Every bracelet made during this episode is available for purchase, with 100% of proceeds going to The Okra Project. Remember, every bracelet has a story, and every story helps a cause.
