This podcast you're listening to now is a big experiment. We originally recorded it in 2021, back then only in German. We would have liked to translate it into other languages but, quite honestly, that was just too expensive because we financed this podcast ourselves.

Now there is artificial intelligence. Suddenly there's a way for you to listen to us in your own language and we thought: let's try it out. Because we want everyone to be able to listen to this podcast, no matter where they come from, no matter what language they speak.

The content of this podcast is from 2021, so it's a little piece of queer history in itself. Currently, the 40-year-old Transsexuals Act has been abolished and replaced by the Self-Determination Act, and last year there were more CSDs in Germany than ever before.

And our voices, they are our voices, but the AI has translated them into English for you so that you can hear us in your native language.

That's just as crazy for us as it probably is for you. So let's give it a try. Please bear with us for our sometimes strange way of speaking and write to us at [email protected] to let us know what you think.
