Tuck shares an exciting 2 Trans 2 Furious update before chatting with Arlie Adlington (he/him) about queer labor solidarity, Pride movie recs, and normal tea.

Listen to the full episode on Patreon to hear Arlie talk about working with Sam Smith, navigating the world of UK t-shots, and writing an important song about beverages (before Sabrina Carpenter did it, even!)

See you at the Bell House on Thursday for our Pride™ live show!

(Oh and here’s the video that Casey took hehe.)

For our season finale, Tuck catches up with historian Jules Gill-Peterson (she/her). Topics include:

• Why Jules might be writing a trilogy of books against ~transgender~
• Why liberal trans inclusion is the “kissing cousin of fascism”
• A list of fun hot reasons why people have transitioned throughout history
• Is transphobia always rooted in misogyny?
• Plus: Fighting your publisher over derogatory italics; learning the secrets of the most trans dinosaur; and once again asking whether a certain trans clothing company is a psy-op…

Today’s Theymail message was from Thirst Pebble.

Find Jules @gpjulesss. A Short History of Trans Misogyny is out now.

Come see us at the Bell House on June 20!
