| 7/17/25 |  Everyone's Telling This Story | Is this what you/we/I wanted? Sarah fills in the gaps of the last two months, talking about the euphoria of laser hair removal before making a pit stop into the realm of so-called "AI" and the various issues posed by its existence.

| 5/1/25 | The Last of the Latchkey Kids | Intergenerational Cold War Sarah reflects on her childhood, the weirdness of growing up in the middle ground between gen x and gen z, and the absurdity of the American welfare system.

| 3/12/25 |  The Surgery & Other Anxieties (with Iris Jay) | Looks like we're blasting one off again! In the first interview episode of TQ2, Sarah talks to cartoonist Iris Jay about transgender surgeries, everything that goes into them, and what ultimately comes out. We also answer a listener question about whether you should come out at work! Be aware that this is an adult conversation that gets into some pretty gross nitty-gritty, so maybe don't listen to this one over a meal. Unless you're into that!

| 2/21/25 |  What Goes Unsaid Does Not Exist | Laser Hair Removal Progress Update She's three sessions deep into LHR and Sarah's feeling morose. While sifting through her feelings across several separate recordings, she discusses the stop-and-start nature of transition, the immateriality of intrusive thoughts, and the question of what comes next after laser has done its job.

| 2/4/25 |  The Solace of Strings | Let's Make Some Noise! In the first proper episode of Trans Questioning 2, Sarah kicks things off with a rattle as she discusses generational warfare, Gen Z attitudes about education, and the real problems of artificial intelligence while simultaneously restringing and tuning her guitar. That's right, it's a classic "distracted ASMR" episode. Intro Music by Molly Noise: https://linktr.ee/MollyNoise.

| 1/21/25 |  TRANS QUESTIONING 2: EPISODE ZERO | THE TIME IS NOW After a lengthy hiatus, Trans Questioning is coming back! More importantly, I'm finally getting my beard lasered off! Covering the period from before my first laser session to after my second, this episode is an old school piecemeal TQ self-reflecting on why it's taken me long to get this process going, and what it means to my stalling transition. I also get tonsillitis. And through it all, naturally, I'm processing the newfound political reality in the USA as a trans woman, searching as always for a light at the end of the tunnel. Improbable as it may seem, I think I found one. For an explanation as to why this is "episode zero" of Trans Questioning "2," listen to the episode. It's the very first thing I talk about. Expect regular biweekly episodes starting sometime before spring 2025. Find out more at https://trans-questioning-podcast.pinecast.co | — | ||||||
| 7/11/22 |  Some Things You Learn About Yourself At Pride | Food is good and so are dogs, meta or otherwise. I went to Pride and felt like I was allowed to feel attraction to other people as a transgender woman! Topics include: my mom's recipe for "shit on a shingle," lessons from pride, lesser-discussed media stereotypes that had an outsized effect on my sense of self, a song i wrote called "meta dog," and what I learned about my socioeconomic upbringing from cooking aforementioned recipe. This one's packed so buckle in!!!

| 6/28/22 | Doing Dishes at the End of the World | This is probably healthier than twitter, tbh. In this week's episode, I do the dishes and ramble about the overturning of Roe v Wade, the state of American labor, and the place of gender within the ongoing culture war. If you like ASMR, this one's for you.

| 6/13/22 | Personal Responsibility (to kick your ass) | My head is a blender and society is giving me too many tropical fruits This smoothie has a bit of a neapolitan flavor. Contradictions, the pandemic, rate of profit, and my own disjointed writings on The State Of Things come together in what can be resoundingly described as "an hourlong podcast episode."

| 5/28/22 | Breakfast of a Burnt-Out Worker | Wake up to a world with room to spare. TQ is back! This week, Sarah makes breakfast, drinks some coffee, and then reads selections from Noel Ignatiev's Adequate Men, the memoir of a communist revolutionary working inside a steel mill in the 1970s. From there we discuss the nature of work in America today, the neoliberal project of decoupling labor from the workplace & erasing the ideological commitments of the labor movement, and why there is hope to be had for the future of the revolutionary movement.

| 9/29/21 | The Last Episode of Trans Questioning (unless it isn't) | THIS WEEK: Trans Questioning is ending, whether now or a bit later. But something new will take its place, and this episode is an exploration of what that thing will be and why I feel compelled to make it a reality. NOTE: I was high and exhausted when I recorded this episode, and I did not listen to it for errors. I know that by the end I was spewing youthfully vague political generalities. I promise these discussions on Genderpunk will be a hell of a lot more specific.

| 8/15/19 |  Heather Flowers: Staying Dangerous | You climb into the warm crevice of your meat mech. Its pungent copper wetness fills your nose and slides down the back of your throat... it tastes like blood and cherries. It occurs to you that this nightmare of muscle and bone feels somehow more like home than anywhere else you've ever been. You whisper your name and push your neck onto the nerve spike. As the thing you call "yourself" expands, a fire lights in the pit of your stomach. Oh, of course. This is what it feels like to be alive. This is what it feels like to be you. You are GENDER DISASTER. THIS WEEK: Game developer Heather Flowers joins us to discuss EXTREME MEATPUNKS FOREVER Season 2, which is on Kickstarter now!
