- Pandemic Tips for Transguys
Neither of us are transguys. Still, we know how to kill time during SIP (shelter-in-place).
Practice tying your ties! Actually, no. Instead, perfect that bowtie. Long ties are vectors. Gross.
Prep for your grandpa days and learn to whittle! Smoke a pipe! Figure out your future grandpa smell! (Usually tobacco, hair pomade, aftershave, and grandpa funk, but do it your way.)

22 min - How Can Faith Tell If She Passes?
And does it matter? Why? Let's say she passes. Is she done with the transgender community? And is that shitty? Why? Anyway, here are some links:
Faith is using an app to count calories and it's actually helping her lose weight. Also it's kind of interesting learning about the calorie density of different foods. We call it "Data Not Deprivation".Faith loves Grimes. Grimes has a new album. And Faith REALLY loves Grimes. Kath is glad Grimes is pregnant because Faith dislikes kids and Kath is pretty sure if kids weren't in the picture, Faith would leave Kath for Grimes.The "thorn" phoneme aka the "th" sound, which Faith couldn't pronounce as a kid, so she had mouth surgery to fix because otherwise she would be bullied. She was still bullied, of course, but not for the thorn thing.Faith is a very accomplished podcaster and her other podcasts include the Last Podcast on The Left, Hardcore History, Serial , and the first- ever podcast, War of the Worlds .Acquitted child-murdering mother Casey Anthony did not work at Universal Studios, but kept the lie going as long as she could.Food life hack: vegetables are very nutrient-dense and low calorie. Roast chunks of carrots, potatoes, cauliflower, Brussels sprouts, zucchini, and red onion with salt and a little olive oil, and toss a little lemon tahini dressing on top. OMG yum.Support us on Patreon to help us keep making great content, and to get some cool rewards!

33 min - Vaginoplasty 101 Part II
Post-surgical recovery, physical therapy, and the patient panel were in the second part of the NYU-Langone day-long class in vaginoplasty. Faith got antsy toward the end of the class but Kath took her to the Waterfront Ale House right after (1 block away) and everything was okay.
Peggy Huddleston wants you to heal from surgery faster. Visualization and breathing have empirical data supporting them but reiki lacks reliable evidence at this time. Trick or Treatment is a great book that looks at high-quality scientific publications about several alternative medical practices.
The dilator set: throw away the purple and work your way up to the orange!

56 min - Vaginoplasty 101 Part I
NYU-Langone offers a day-long class in vaginoplasty for women who have their GRS scheduled in the near future. Caregivers are able to attend too! So we went, listened, took notes, asked questions, and ate sandwiches. We learned SO MUCH that we couldn't fit it all into one episode. We could barely fit it into two. So enjoy these mega-episodes!
A hand mirror is recommended for looking at one's brand-new vagina. Your phone, or a compact, won't work. Sure, any hand mirror will do. But here, we like to go big or go home.
Psychology Today can help you find a therapist. (That's the US link, so go here if you're Canadian, Mexican, or if you live outside North America.)
The OUT Foundation partnered with NYU-Langone for the class. They can provide resources for people traveling for their GRS, and seem pretty cool overall. They have an inclusive gym finder, host the Big Gay Field Day , and started the Don't Be An Asshole Tour.

49 min - Faith The Grifter
Faith wants to be a grifter. Help Kath talk her out of it. This episode is kind of a throwback to the first podcast we dd together, Fool Me Once about scams (patrons can hear all 3 episodes we did)
A bounty of links for this episode:
The Community Service Society of New York helped Faith take on her health insurance company.
The Mt Sinai plastic surgery dept staff supporting Dr. Avanessian are amazing human beings-- so amazing, the famously misanthropic Faith DaBrooke wrote thank you notes to themFaith says, see Birds of Prey .Kath says, see Parasite .Read the book My Friend Anna, so you can learn more about the shitty human being Anna Delvey, whose black chiffon babydoll dress is 99% of the reason Faith wants to be a grifter."Oh no! I dropped my twelve pack of delicious Sticky's chicken fingers! My boss is gonna KILL me!"Ear Hustle podcast from prison, where we'll definitely end up.Orange is the New Black , the book, not the show, is really good.37 min - If You Can't Take HRT
If there's a medical reason (or any other reason) that makes HRT impossible for you, are you screwed? Thanks to a great question sent in by listener N.R. whose pulmonary embolism makes HRT too risky for her, Faith and Kath discuss what other options exist. They also think up terrible metaphors.
You can have an excellent stew without meat. Seriously, try it. We're not even vegan and we love this recipe.

30 min - Faith's New Dirtypillows
BREASTS! Faith discusses her recent breast augmentation surgery: the ordeal itself (not bad), the immediate followup (kind of bad), and the weeks since then (not great, but getting better every day). Next time they tell you to grow a pair, just say "no thanks. I'll BUY a pair!" No, wait, don't say that. That's weird.

24 min - Supporting A Gender-Questioning Partner
Awesome partner Jenny asked us "I was wondering if you could discuss the gender spectrum a bit and what it means to be gender questioning. My partner doesn't really know how they feel but they know that they don't feel entirely their assigned gender. As a straight cis woman, I am having a really hard time understanding these feelings and what to do, if anything, to support them in helping them figure out what makes them most comfortable." We discuss how labels can be both helpful and unhelpful, the kinds of questions necessary, what societal strictures should be ignored, and the frustrations Jenny's partner may encounter.
There's a great guide to figuring out a non-binary identity from Micah at Everyday Feminism.

29 min - Makeup 101
An interested listener wrote in to ask how Faith does her makeup. We discuss the basic items you need and starter tips and techniques. YouTube will take you farther in your journey but here's how to get started. Faith got questionable advice about Cover Girl from Claire Storm-- check out her dramatic but effective contouring!
