Roo and Tugs have been waiting to do this episode a very long time and were happy to welcome Julian (aka Alastair) to the studio to discuss the personal topic of transgender and furries. In this double length episode we deep dive into Julian’s journey of self discovery, journey of transition, and changes in how society/others perceive him. We also read your emails and share your very personal and touching stories about how actualizing your gender identity has brought happiness and struggles into your lives, and get our guest’s take on them. Finally, we top it off with a quick trip to the mailbag. This episode is tons of heart and you might just learn a thing or two along the way as you feel ALL THE FEELS of our friends in transition.
