Summary
In an excerpt from our first stop on the Shine Theory Tour, we discuss the Cheeto Administration's attempts to erase trans people, investing advice from Reddit, and San Francisco's debate over how to fund services for homeless residents.

We have a full hour of additional segments that can only be seen on the road. There are still some tickets left in Chicago, Minneapolis and Philadelphia: callyourgirlfriend.com/tour.
