About this episode
Back in March 2014, RISK! tripled down on a single subject, and this classic episode was the result.
Josh Healey is 17 and smitten with his drama club co-president when she casts him, a boy, in the first ever co-ed production of The Vagina Monologues. The soccer team has questions, the college feminists have objections, and the cast is heading toward open revolt.
Amy Salloway, fresh off a massage therapist's humiliating refusal to touch her, lands at a size acceptance conference in Seattle. It turns out she's one of the only straight women in the building and starts to wonder if that's negotiable for a weekend.
And Elna Baker arrives in Hollywood for the pitch meeting of her dreams while her own body quietly sabotages the room.
