Alaska Airlines has teamed up with Hawaiian Airlines to create new nonstop international flights.

I'm Rachel Bell and this this is your Last Meal.

The show where celebrities share stories about the foods they love most,

and we dig into the history, culture, and science of those meals with experts from around the world.

Today on the program, Kathleen Hannah, punk rock singer, feminist activist,

and frontwoman for La Tigra and Bikini Kill.

Kathleen just released her brand new memoir. It's called Rebel Girl. The book starts with her chaotic childhood, moves into her

college years in Olympia, Washington, where she sang in punk bands, hung out with Kurt Cobain, helped

coin the term girl power, and eventually became the epicenter for the riot girl movement. Oh, and she

eventually married Ad Rock from the Beastie Boys. Also, I love her.

When I think of food and feminism, I think of the cookbook, rage baking,

the transformative power of flower, fury, and women's voices.

The idea of using sugar and spice, but you don't have to be nice.

That is coming up later in the show, but first, my conversation with

Kathleen Hannah. Just to start, I loved your book from the first sentence. I couldn't put it down.

But I also just want to say, because you talk about your life, so many traumatic things that

happen, I just want to say that I'm very sorry that all that happened to you. Oh, that's so sweet. It's nice to hear, you know.

At the very beginning of the book, you say, I don't feel like a rebel girl. Most of the time, I feel like a

dirty napkin. What did you mean by that? Yeah, I think a lot of performers come to art, come to making music damaged.

I mean, we're all damaged in some way, right?

Yeah.
