“I’ve largely stayed away from debates over trans rights because, as the presenter notes, they get so toxic so easily, with both sides all too often descending into hyperbole, vitriol, and accusations of persecution. It’s a rare piece of media that allows a calm, disinterested third party to quite simply try to clarify the facts for the benefit of the general public rather than muddying the issue further, and this is such a piece of media. This podcast sets up no partisan narratives either way—no one is labeled a “hero”, “victim”, “pioneer”, or “villain”. I came away with a better and more detailed understanding of the issues at hand instead of being frustrated by cant from either the left or right, and I’m grateful for that. Let’s face it, medical practice should be guided by science rather than culture-wars drama.”

“Engaging and assembled with a degree of competence however the casual transphobia of straight people is a bit horrifying. I'm not sure a straight cis woman is the appropriate person to be speculating on trans people in a media product like this because it is an existential matter for the...”Read full review »
