| 0:00.0 | Hey, trans-sash fam. It's me, Amara. Welcome to the trans-podge podcast, a show where we tell trans stories to save trans lives. |
| 0:11.2 | Well, we are fully into the holiday season. Every year, it seems to come faster and faster. |
| 0:18.8 | But I don't really know how it could because it seems like |
| 0:21.6 | this year it started on, I don't know, October 13th. |
| 0:25.6 | We know that for many of you, this is a really tough time of the year, and for others, it's not. |
| 0:32.6 | So wherever you are and however you're doing, we want you to take care of yourself. But wherever you might be |

| 1:45.4 | And so many things span our holiday conversations with respect to how to shop, transfer |
