What The Trans!?

Bad things.

Hey this is Michelle.

So, bad things.

A combination of things have essentially "triggered" me. As such, I am totally useless and have no idea how to deliver all these things.

So, going to issue refunds this month. Apologies. I...

Confidence and body acceptance

Hello, delightful patrons!

We've been thinking about how lockdown has mixed effects when it comes to confidence. For some people, it's given them the freedom to present however they want in the safety of their own homes, while for others, i...

We did a cis allies episode and it didn't show up. Here is why.

Hello, this is Michelle. The sweary one from that pod you like.

We did a cisgender allies special that was so much fun to do. We talked to Owen Jones, Grace Petrie, David Paisley and Josie Long and all four of them are astonishingly wonderf...

Cis allies

We've been hard at work this week and we're really looking forward to putting out our Cis Allies Special!

Collective fandom name?

The other day, Michelle was telling a friend about how fans of the podcast had helped her to get equipment for making the show, and her friend asked if our audience were called "What The Fans". What do you think of this name? Let us know if you th...

Celebrity transphobes

We managed to get #GlinnerIsABigot trending this week - many thanks to everyone who helped make it happen! It got us thinking... which other celebrity transphobe do you wish more people would recognise as a bigot?

New Patron tiers, rewards and goals!

Hello, lovely Patrons. How are you doing?

We've been busy behind the scenes, plotting and scheming how to make What The Trans!? even better. Michelle has recruited an army of robots to help organise her schedule, while our new producer Jo ha...

Well ain't this a fuckin thing.

Hope this finds you in your various bunkers, keeping safe.

So, What The Trans is going to change slightly. Our pod is still going to report news, but as COVID-19 and the various ramifications of it are the biggest danger to trans people, we ...

So we took a two week break...here is why.

So now that we have people donating to us, feels like I owe you an explanation when it comes to the recent unplanned gap between episodes.

Basically, I (Michelle) was recently diagnosed with ADHD. This came with...feelings...and a sudden nee...

So, we are doing this.

This page was only supposed to be a placeholder until we figure out how this works, but then SOME OF YOU simply couldn't wait and found it yourselves!

Thank you SO MUCH!

As such, we are still scrambling to ...
