11. These Tampons are Yelling at Me (w/ Britt A Willis!)

WELP. Here's the last episode I was able to record before the 'rona. I hope you are all staying safe and I'm already figuring out a plan for remotely recorded episodes. Luckily Podcasts are simple! (Er, just kidding they are very complex. That's why there are SO FEW OF THEM.)

Anyways. GINGER SNAPS (2000) is a fantastic film about our beautiful, weird, transforming bodies. Author/Playwright Britt A Willis ("This Vessel is a Fragile Thing") explains why they believe 'Canadian Werewolf Carrie' is more canonically trans than E**ie R*dm*yne or J*red L*to could EVER be. Sorry boys.

We also briefly discuss how ACTUAL trans/GNC experiences are put to paper by writers such as Willow Maclay, Daniel M. Lavery, and of course Britt themself!

ALSO: The Green Knight gets to chopping! Mimi Rogers versus Scientology! People are yelling about tampons and it's kind of dumb!

CW: Spoilers for GINGER SNAPS [ie: some dogs die, natch], discussions of violence, suicide, transphobia, homophobia, frank discussions of (totally normal!) bodily functions and body dysmorphia (also common!), as well as HAIR. LOTS OF HAIR. Which is, again, normal (mostly).

You can find Britt online at @feelingfickle or brittawillis.com. Their games can be found at feelingfickle.itch.io (community copies available!).

And I'm still as gay and anxious as ever @joshuasimonsays.

Love you little hormonal monsters! Reach out to me on the socials or on Patreon at The GAG: a Spoopcast. It's rough out there and we can't be together physically. BUT. No matter how different you feel, even in isolation, you're just as weird as the rest of us. And we wouldn't change that for the world.

And always remember: Wrists are for girls???
