For the last episode before the series finale, this is Henry's episode and he decided to sit down with Josh and Grant to look over the last five years. They reflect on the transformative impact of the podcast on their lives. They share personal growth experiences, memorable episodes, and the misconceptions that often arise about their identities and beliefs. As we near the end, the cohosts share messages of gratitude for the listeners and each other. 

Josh and Elizabeth sit down with Taylor, Kris, and Remi to hear about their experience as trans Christians due to the current cultural and political shifts in the United States and around the world.
