Over the last week or so, you may have seen news coverage or social media posts about a lawsuit from outdoor gear brand Patagonia against a drag queen named Pattie Gonia. 

Patagonia alleges Pattie (real name Wyn Wiley) is infringing on its trademark. Pattie says Patagonia is trying to “erase her advocacy”. 

In today’s episode, we’ll unpack this very full hiking backpack and give you a little lesson on trademark law.
