Chris Mosier, team USA athlete and founder of transathlete.com, joins Sarah to discuss what’s keeping him positive and hopeful post-election, how transphobes are using bans and lawsuits in athletics to demonize trans people, and the ways anti-trans rhetoric is affecting cis women in sports, too. Plus, we take a moment to celebrate with you Slices, and ask for your favorite holiday traditions.
