| 0:00.0 | Before we start the show, there's another podcast I want to tell you about, |
| 0:03.5 | although one you have probably heard of already. If you listen to my show, you know that news |
| 0:08.8 | and culture shows usually aren't made with trans folks like us in mind. Trans voices are routinely |
| 0:15.6 | left out of the conversation, even though stories about us are everywhere. The Translash podcast |
| 0:21.5 | with Amara Jones is changing that. Amara is a Peabody and Emmy Award winner, and also a genius |
| 0:27.6 | to be age. You might remember that she was on the gender reveal podcast recently, episode |
| 0:32.3 | one of this season, talking about how trans people telling our own stories will literally save |
| 0:37.8 | trans lives. Amara just released a new episode of her show All About Trans Love. It features |
| 0:44.7 | precious Brady Davis, who is one half of precious and miles, the T for T couple on the TLC |
| 0:50.8 | special My Pregnant Husband, and if that sounds familiar, it's because we recently interviewed |
| 0:55.6 | Ari, one half of the other couple on the TLC special My Pregnant Husband. Turns out Transworld |
| 1:01.8 | is very small. Anyway, you can hear that episode and more by tuning into the Translash podcast |
| 1:08.0 | every other Thursday. Subscribe wherever you're listening right now. |
| 1:26.1 | Welcome to Gender Reveal, a podcast where we hopefully get a little bit closer to understanding |
| 1:31.4 | what the hell gender is. I'm your host and resident gender detective, Tuckwood Stock. |
| 1:45.1 | Hey everyone, hope you're all hanging in there. This week on the show, I am delighted to share |
| 1:49.9 | my chat with journalists and podcast host Trevelle Anderson. I had so much fun talking with Trevelle |
| 1:56.1 | about black film history, trans film futures, whether non-binary TV characters are actually non-binary, |
| 2:02.4 | how to critique queer film when it's a bad plus what white people should be doing. |
| 2:07.8 | So like I would love to see more race traders, more gender traders. What white people should not |
| 2:13.1 | be doing. Maybe white people shouldn't be saying all black lives matter. And multiple soup metaphors |
| 2:19.2 | for gender. I'm not going to explain that one. You just got to listen. I do ask Trevelle question |
