Sorry Toxic Macho Dudes - My Trans Friends Are Braver Than You

This episode jumps between anger, grief, forgiveness, politics, and unexpected hope — so, basically business as usual.

I talk about the Transgender Day of Remembrance, why transphobia makes me furious, and the weird emotional gymnastics required to stay human in a world that keeps dehumanizing people. I get into forgiveness (including forgiving the men who gay-bashed me decades ago), what “being the love I want to see” actually looks like, and why anger and resentment are not the same thing.

We also touch on:
 • Depression and the need for connection
 • Trump’s latest threat about “executing” people for telling troops to obey the law
 • How MAGA and far-right news ecosystems shape reality
 • The rise of Trump-like politics in places like the UK
 • Toxic masculinity, compassion fatigue, and why this podcast might be my therapy

Plus: listener calls from all over — some challenging, some funny, some deeply moving.
