Is Ashley St. Clair GRIFTING??

Chloe & Laura — Wed, 29 Jul 2026 02:00:00 -0700

Ashley St Clair was a conservative, MAGA influencer who got her start at age 17. She was funneled through the alt-right incubator, spewing hatred across the internet (transphobic, racist, nationalist rhetoric) until she finally had her second baby with Elon Musk. After exposure to him and witnessing his increasing radicalization and harm (after after he turned on HER), she left the movement and has become a prominent voice against the Right and the tactics that MAGA uses. The question of the day is... is it real? Or is she just "grifting to the left" purely out of self-interest?

#conservatives #grifting #transgender #ashleystclair #maga #debates

Laura PASSIONATELY defends the "she's definitely a grifter" perspective while Chloe takes the "she's not perfect but I think she IS learning" side. We debate long and hard about the correct way to be a good ally, what she SHOULD be doing, and the evidence both for and against her shift to the left being genuine or not. Regardless, the facts about her checkered past remain: she was a conservative, MAGA influencer who rose to popularity incredibly quickly & was funneled through the alt-right incubator, working with Turning Point USA, the Babylon Bee, and other right-wing organizations specifically designed to spew hatred across the internet (transphobic, racist, & nationalist rhetoric). Once she had her second baby with Elon Musk and broke a deal by announcing publicly that the baby was his (because he notoriously likes to keep his private philandering lifestyle incredibly secretive), he turned against her and weaponized his base to levy incredible hatred at her. She finally broke ranks and switched sides, speaking out against big tech, billionaires, and the entire MAGA ideology, explaining that by doing some reading and learning, she was able to see the error in her ways. The question still remains... is any of it REAL??

Debunking Trans Propaganda: Violence & Cherry Picking (Pt 3)

Chloe & Laura — Sun, 26 Jul 2026 02:00:00 -0700

There is a prevalent belief in TERF and "gender critical" circles, and a narrative being pushed by right-wing grifters and people with ulterior motives, that being trans causes people to be MORE VIOLENT than all other demographics of people. It's something Blaire White, Joe Rogan, JK Rowling, and basically every trans-hating person have been pushing ever since the Charlie Kirk shooting. So we're here to go over the ACTUAL stats and prove that trans people, on the whole, are the LEAST violent demographic of people that exist.

TERFs and "gender criticals" believe and push a lot of strange things. And, of course, it's easy to find an example of any type of person who did something wrong if you're LOOKING for that. So this week, we're covering a number of examples of "bad" trans people, trans people who committed violence, and the general rhetoric that the "gender criticals" (just TERFs with a funny name) push en masse to try to convince people to be terrified of us. In our last two "debunking propaganda videos, we talked about how they think being trans is a "social contagion" (a belief that has been disproven after being first proposed in 2015 and gaining steam in 2016), and then the idea that trans identity is a "cult," the harmful idea that having autism both makes you 'more vulnerable' to trans ideology (because you aren't smart enough to think for yourself) and 'causes' you to transition, and bizarre, pseudoscientific beliefs about puberty blockers, brain changes, and identical twins. These ultra right-wing grifters (who are often RACIST as well as transphobic) are wildly misinformed, and have ulterior motives that largely align with patriarchal ideas that we should all be reduced purely to our biology. We watch several of their propaganda videos and look at their memes and DEBUNK their Nazi ideology with facts, logic, and statistics.

Why is Blaire White LIKE this??

Chloe & Laura — Wed, 22 Jul 2026 02:00:00 -0700

Blaire White is a prominent transgender influencer who also happens to be Gender Critical and TERFy... she spews anti-trans rhetoric and makes content bullying other trans women for their appearance, while also being racist, conservative, MAGA, and being a token trans person for the Right to weaponize. But... Why?? How did she become this way? Where did she start? Who is funding her? What did she experience that made her shut off her emotions and turn against her own community?

#conservatives #grifters #transgender #rosicrucian #4chanstories #propaganda

Blaire White was raised in a cult and was being groomed to become a politician by her ultra-conservative father, who also abused her (in more ways than she's willing to speak about). She found community in the transmaxxer page on 4Chan and fully believes that being trans, for her, is a direct result of the trauma she experienced. She also has wildly misinformed views about "passing," and has internalized the idea that she has no inherent value unless she is beautiful (transmisogyny is strong with this one). She bullies trans women online. She spews false information, damaging rhetoric, pseudoscience, and ragebait across the internet, which her ultra-MAGA, conservative followers lap up like the homophobic trans chasers that they are. They hate us but they love her because she hates us, too. Laura dove DEEP into the archives of the internet and pieced together the whole puzzle, including WHERE her sponsors are based, who they're connected to, why she makes the type of content that she does, and how she became the way that she is. If you've ever wondered, "Why is Blaire White LIKE THIS??", we've got the answer for you here.

Debunking Trans Propaganda: "Cult," "Pseudoscience," & "Autism" (Pt2)

Chloe & Laura — Sun, 19 Jul 2026 02:00:00 -0700

There is a prevalent belief in TERF and "gender critical" circles, and a narrative being pushed by right-wing grifters and people with ulterior motives, that being trans is merely a "cult ideology" that is a result of propaganda and lies being taught to kids at school and then rapidly spreading as a social contagion online. We're breaking down the "cult" idea, as well as the pseudoscientific ideas that anti-trans activists believe and push--including that autism "causes" transgenderism (which is a word we don't even believe in).

TERFs and "gender criticals" believe and push a lot of strange things. Last week we talked about how they think being trans is a "social contagion" (a belief that has been disproven after being first proposed in 2015 and gaining steam in 2016), but THIS week we're covering a few different brands of propaganda that they push: 1) the idea that trans identity is a "cult" because we tend to agree that we exist, 2) the harmful idea that having autism both makes you 'more vulnerable' to trans ideology because you aren't smart enough to think for yourself and 'causes' you to transition, and 3) a ton of bizarre, pseudoscientific beliefs about how puberty blockers are 'harmful,' identical twins should have the same gender identity, and more. These ultra right-wing grifters (who are often racist as well as transphobic) are wildly misinformed, and have ulterior motives that largely align with patriarchal ideas that we should all be reduced purely to our biology. We watch several of their propaganda videos and look at their memes and DEBUNK their Nazi ideology with facts, logic, and statistics.

Who ACTUALLY started biphobia??

Chloe & Laura — Wed, 15 Jul 2026 02:00:00 -0700

The biphobia discourse has reared its ugly head again! Who is to blame? Is it the lesbian community, like the Queer Collective podcast recently asserted? Or is the whole thing, like most queer "discourse", a government psy-op to get us to hate each other?

#biphobia #queerdiscourse #thegenderyappodcast #psyops #lesbians #transphobia

In short: NO. Lesbians are not to blame for biphobia. But there IS a lot of biphobia in the lesbian community that we need to talk about. Recently, the Queer Collective podcast out of Canada asserted that biphobia was "created" in the lesbian community, and we're here to put that theory to bed. Lez 4 Lez (les for les?) is a valid form of expression, and we are NOT here to take that away from anyone. And yes, there are some women who are not romantically interested in other women but who ARE sexually attracted to women who claim to be lesbians, mainly to impress men, and that's a problem that needs to be worked out as well. But generally... why are we fighting? Why are we doing exactly what cointelpro and the government WANT us to do and infighting so that we can't COME TOGETHER to fight the real evil that plagues us all??
In this episode, we explore the idea that lesbians are somehow the creators of this idea, that men have nothing to do with this (when they are, in fact, the problem), that lesbians can do no wrong, the crossover between biphobia and transphobia, the similarities in certain forms of infighting rhetoric, and a personal story of a really weird biphobic lesbian who assaulted a bisexual friend of ours.

Debunking Trans Propaganda: "Social Contagion" (Part 1)

Chloe & Laura — Sun, 12 Jul 2026 02:00:00 -0700

There is a prevalent belief in TERF and "gender critical" circles, and a narrative being pushed by right-wing grifters and people with ulterior motives, that being trans is merely a "social contagion" that is a result of propaganda and lies being taught to kids online and then rapidly spreading via social contagion via kids in schools. We take a look at some of the propaganda videos and memes created by that side of the aisle and debunk their rhetoric.

#ROGD #transition #transgender #socialcontagion #indoctrination #propaganda

There is a common belief in TERF and "gender critical" circles, and a narrative being pushed by ultra right-wing grifters with ulterior motives, that being trans is merely a "social contagion" that is being taught to kids by "woke" liberal teachers in schools. They call this phenomenon many things: Rapid Onset Gender Dysphoria (ROGD), "social contagion," "radicalization," and a whole host of even less kind things to push a lie that being trans is essentially "being in a cult." This is deeply harmful rhetoric that has been disproven time and time again, but to no avail. We take a look at some of their propaganda videos and memes, as well as some of their "research" "studies" (that have been WIDELY criticized and even UNpublished) and bring you the FACTS behind the lies: Where did the "social contagion" theory come from? Who is pushing it? Who are they aligned with? What are their goals? And we put to bed a number of their common lies with simple logic and evidence. So here we go again: DEBUNKING anti-trans propaganda, but this time, by engaging directly with their content and poking some obvious holes in their beliefs.

What CIS people DON'T understand about transition

Chloe & Laura — Wed, 08 Jul 2026 02:00:00 -0700

Cis people -- mainly the transphobic ones , but some "allies" as well -- are often fed propaganda about trans people & how transition works, so we wanted to set the record straight! In this PART TWO of our "what cis people & transphobes don't understand about transition and trans people" episode, we explain why people misunderstand so much about the process!

We've lightly touched on some of these ideas in past episodes, but for this week, we wanted to REALLY explore a number of things that cis people (mainly the transphobic ones, but it's not just them) don't understand. In this episode, we explore a number of misconceptions about transition: the early life of trans people, going through puberty as an adult, child-like joy, the bra phase, how it feels to finally love yourself, how being trans in a world that hates us is POWER, the ways that femininity is sexualized (and how that plays a HUGE role in transmisogyny), TERF projection, why it's so easy for cis people to mistake trans joy as sexual, ped0 culture, why the world was so angry with Dylan Mulvaney, how the experiences of trans men differ from trans women, why trans men are usually IDEAL mean, and how patriarchy plays a role in ALL of this.

Emotional HRT changes that you (probably) DON'T know about! (Pt 2)

Chloe & Laura — Sun, 05 Jul 2026 02:00:00 -0700

Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) is one of the MOST crucial and LEAST understood aspects of transition. Most TERFy people don't even seem to know or understand THAT we (trans people) take hormones, let alone what they DO to our bodies and our minds. They insist that we're "men wearing a dress & makeup" while completely overlooking the RADICAL changes that our bodies undergo due to feminizing hormones. From breast growth to fat redistribution to LITERAL, MEASURABLE changes to the shape of our brains... this episode is gonna open your minds to the vast and misunderstood world of HRT.

Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) is one of the MOST crucial and LEAST understood aspects of transition. Most TERFy people don't even seem to know or understand THAT we take hormones, let alone what they DO to our bodies and our minds. They insist that we're "men wearing a dress & makeup" while completely overlooking the RADICAL changes that our bodies undergo due to feminizing hormones. Sex Drive? Consider it GONE. Ability to penetrate? Not anymore! Today, we're mainly focusing on the EMOTIONAL, MENTAL, and SPIRITUAL changes that occur when we go on HRT. Our mental health improves dramatically, and we're literally capable of feeling and expressing NEW emotions that we never previously knew existed! We're gonna walk you through all of it today. So... what *DOES* HRT do to trans people?

What transphobes DON'T understand about TRANS people (Part 1)

Cis people -- mainly the transphobic ones (some "allies" as well) -- are often fed propaganda about trans people and how transition works, so we wanted to set the record straight (gay). We explain a number of misconceptions about transition and the early life of trans people, health discrimination, the weird "oppression olympics" game that people play, why it's so hard for people to wrap their heads around what it's like to be trans, and how privilege plays into all of it!

Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) is one of the MOST crucial and LEAST understood aspects of transition. Most TERFy people don't even seem to know or understand THAT we take hormones, let alone what they DO to our bodies and our minds. They insist that we're "men wearing a dress & makeup" while completely overlooking the RADICAL changes that our bodies undergo due to feminizing hormones. Sex Drive? Consider it GONE. Ability to penetrate? Not anymore! Then there's the breast growth, fat redistribution, skin texture change, shrinkage (in so many different ways), utter lack of testosterone, muscle mass decrease... and SO many more. We're gonna walk you through it today. So... what DOES HRT do to trans people?

Were Trans Women socialized as MEN??

Chloe & Laura — Wed, 24 Jun 2026 02:00:00 -0700

TERFs love to say that Trans Women can't be "real women" because they were "socialized as men," or "experienced male privilege," so we're here to explore how socialization plays into gender and self-identity and whether or not it plays any role in the way that trans women exist!

TERFs (Trans Exclusive Radical Feminists) [aka FARTs -- Feminism Appropriating Radical Transphobes] love to say that Transgender Women aren't "real women" because they were "socialized as men," or "experienced male privilege," and we're here to debunk that idea in every way we know how! In this episode, we break down FIVE (5!) different TERFy ideas about how trans women are "socialized male," including that they "think like men," "didn't experience sexualization as a child," experienced "male socialization," enjoyed "male privilege," and never had to suffer the agonies of a period. Is there ANY truth to their ideas, or is it just transphobia all the way down??

This bill will ERASE LGBTQ+ people online!

Chloe & Laura — Sun, 21 Jun 2026 02:30:00 -0700

KOSA, or the Kids Online Safety Act, is a secret, nefarious conservative plot to hand the government the power to CENSOR any content they deem to be "dangerous" to children. As we all know, that includes anything LGBTQIA2S+, and the Heritage Foundation has ALREADY stated that they will also use this bill, if it passes, to BLOCK information about birth control / reproductive health information. It's all-hands on deck as we try to topple this bill before it changes the internet forever!

Conservatives are working hard to pass KOSA (the Kids Online Safety Act), which is actually a secret, nefarious conservative plot to hand the government the power to CENSOR any content they deem to be "dangerous" to children. They're pretending it's going to "limit the powers of the tech companies," but the bill is being backed by Sam Altman, Elon Musk, Zuckerberg, Apple, Meta, and every big tech company... which mneans it isn't going to be a sacrifice for them at all, and will in fact grant them the powers to limit our access to knowledge and the freedom of speech as we know it. The Heritage Foundation has ALREADY stated that they will also use this bill, if it passes, to BLOCK information about birth control / reproductive health information, and the conservatives have been fighting tooth-and-nail to block the word "transgender" from appearing anywhere on the internet at all! It's all-hands on deck as we try to topple this bill before it changes the internet forever... so CALL YOUR REPS and let's block this thing before we lose even more freedom than we already have!!

FIFA World Cup: Trans Athletes

Chloe & Laura — Fri, 19 Jun 2026 02:30:00 -0700

The FIFA World Cup is going on now across North America! There aren't any transgender footballers currently playing in the tournament, but there have been several trans athletes who have competed or played in the playoffs to be included in FIFA! You may not know their names, but Kumi Yokoyama, Quinn, and Jaiyah Saelua are the three trans soccer players we're covering today.

SWERF & TERF ideology IS misogyny

Chloe & Laura — Wed, 17 Jun 2026 02:00:00 -0700

Sex Worker Exclusionary-- and Trans Exclusionary Radical Feminists believe they're helping the cause by limiting the rights of other specific subgroups of women, but they're actually participating in a deep-seated form of misogyny that was invented by the patriarchy to prevent women from expressing themselves or achieving financial independence on their own! By limiting the rights of other women, they slowly allow the system to chip away at their own rights, leading to a horrific world where women are once again fully subjugated under the thumbs of MEN!

In this video, Laura & Chloe talk about the crossover similarities between Sex-Work Exclusionary Radical Feminists (SWERFs) and Trans Exclusionary Radical Feminists (TERFs). After noticing that she got along well with a lot of trans people, Laura realized that many of the ways that society, men, and a certain brand of feminist treats trans people was VERY similar to the way that those same people treated strippers and other full-service sex workers. The ideologies come from the same place: separate women into subgroups, then determine which groups qualify as "real women" or "traitors," and then fight to limit the rights of the "non-women" in an attempt to boost the rights of the "real" ones. It's purity politics at its finest, and it's a conservative viewpoint that views the world through a deeply patriarchal lens--one where women are slaves, men are on top, and no one has any chance for independence or freedom.

Trans Kids SUE the DOJ!!

Chloe & Laura — Sun, 14 Jun 2026 13:00:00 -0700

A combination of transgender minors and trans adults are SUING the Department of Justice for their unethical and illegal DEMAND for the families' private medical records on the basis that gender-affirming care should not be private. The lawsuit cites illegal search and seizure and overreach, as well as other factors.

In this video, Laura & Chloe break down the new story of transgender children and their parents have begun to SUE the Department of Justice and the state of Texas for illegally sending subpoenas demanding their private medical records from the New York hospital NYU Langone as well as other hospitals such as Stanford Medicine. Medical Privacy is a legitimate concern in this case, and the lawsuit cites illegal search and seizure as well as other factors. This was clearly a targeted attack by MAGA and the Right-Wing Grifters to attempt to eradicate transgender kids from existence, using political overreach to accomplish their nefarious goals.

Is it okay to 'OUT' closeted Conservatives??

Chloe & Laura — Wed, 10 Jun 2026 02:30:00 -0700

A big question on our minds as we attempt to resist and overthrow fascism is always... "should we use the tools of the enemy while fighting them"?? One of those weapons that they wield so proudly is "outing" closeted queer people to endanger our lives and get us ostracized from our communities.

So the question on our minds is... do we fight fire with fire? Should we be "outing" the anti-LGBTQIA2S+ people who are secretly DL for us??
On one side: LAURA, taking the affirmative, and on the other: CHLOE, arguing the negative.

Why let KIDS transition? - History of Trans Medicine (Part 2)

Chloe & Laura — Wed, 03 Jun 2026 02:30:00 -0700

Last week, we covered the history of the invention of hormones as medication and the long and difficult history of getting trans people the treatment they need. This week, we dive into the most recent change in the story: WHEN and WHY did we start giving hormones to trans kids?? Who were the pioneers of the treatment, and how has almost the entire world gotten on board with it so (seemingly) quickly? With so much medical consensus on the topic... why have we seen such VEHEMENT pushback from a specific type of person who has devoted their lives to making sure trans kids aren't allowed medical care??

ALL of those questions (and more!) are answered in this week's episode.

History of Transgender Medicine (Part 1)

Chloe & Laura — Wed, 27 May 2026 02:30:00 -0700

Why are hormones considered medication, and when did we start giving it to trans people? When did we start administering hormones to CIS people? Who were the thinkers who originally researched trans people, and why was the early research burned and destroyed? Why are there so few older trans people? Why were the guidelines for transition SO strict in the 1900s? How did doctors take advantage of the system to abuse trans people? When did the tides begin to shift? How long did it take before trans people were accepted as the experts of our own experiences? (and why was it SO LONG??)

ALL of those questions (and more!) are answered in this week's episode. Next week, we'll be back with the ultimate question: why did we start giving hormones to children? Who were the masterminds and researchers behind transgender medicine, and how can we continue to improve it in the future?

The TERFification of Arielle Scarcella

Chloe & Laura — Wed, 20 May 2026 02:30:00 -0700

How does one go from popular, inoffensive lesbian YouTuber to radical MAGA TERF??

Arielle Scarcella got her start making queer content, promoting *almost* every letter in the LGBTQIA2S+ community... so what went wrong? Why does she spend her days making ragebait content, bullying people at pride, and becoming STAUNCHLY "LGB without the T"??

Laura got curious, and decided to dive deep into the archives of her videos and find the turning point. The video that started to push her in the wrong direction. The way bots and social media algorithms continued to push her further in that direction. And we chronicle her downfall--from influencer & ally to angry, fearmongering, & transphobic. She really drank the Kool-Aid...

Debunking 15 Transphobic Beliefs (Pt 2)

Chloe & Laura — Wed, 06 May 2026 02:30:00 -0700

As a followup to our "We used to be transphobic" episodes, we decided to dive deeper into some of the most pervasive and common transphobic beliefs that far too many people still hold. This is part two, where we cover all the beliefs we didn't cover in Part 1. Also--in the episode we technically only count up to 13, but that's because we bunched some together in the first part and forgot to count them lol

In THIS episode, we cover: the idea that trans people only transition because they have a fetish (aka autogynephilia), the idea that trans women are "mocking" womanhood (lol), that trans women still have 'male' privilege (LOL), that trans men are simply trying to hide from patriarchy, that homosexual trans people don't exist (despite one of them being a host of this show...), that trans people should play sports with their "assigned" gender rather than their actual gender, that people should wait until age 18 to start transitioning, and we reveal the TRUTH about detransitioners. Together, we can spread the factual information we need to finally break this transphobic hatewave that's been spreading around the globe!

ALSO! We launched our Patreon! It's available now!! Gogogo it's so much fun! There's a video of us playing Magic! There's a video of us discussing what a Fourth-Dimensional Being would be like! There will be bloopers soon, and more games of Magic, and more rambly conversations where we've been drinking! Quick! Go now! Before you forget!

Why we went 'no contact' with family Pt 2 (Chloe)

Chloe & Laura — Wed, 15 Apr 2026 03:00:00 -0700

It's never an easy decision to go No Contact with family. Usually, there are a thousand tiny things that happen before the final straw pushes you over the edge: one final overstepped boundary, one last diminishment of your feelings... and the fallout can be emotionally and/or financially devastating. But sometimes, there is a positive other side to the decision.

Today, Chloe walks you through her personal journey, and how cutting off toxic relationships and familial expectations helped her to figure out who she truly was. She shares how she came to her decision (one person at a time), why each transition was so difficult, and what has come of it--both good and bad.

Anti-Trans Legislation Struck Down!

Chloe & Laura — Sun, 05 Apr 2026 03:30:00 -0700

There's not a LOT of good news these days, so when something good happens, we like to take a pause and acknowledge it. Despite the MANY efforts to ban the existence of trans people or punish us for transitioning or punish anyone who is willing to love, support, or accept us in any way... there are many people who stand AGAINST those people, and they are effectively the only thing we have right now.

So... hats off to the allies, even the reluctant ones, who won't stand for the hatred against the trans community. Much love.

What creates a 'Karen' ?

Chloe & Laura — Wed, 01 Apr 2026 03:30:00 -0700

Around the summer of 2000, the name "Karen" became synonymous with a very specific type of woman... But why is that type of woman the way that she is?

Laura got curious and decided to do some research on the psychology of Karens, which led her down rabbit holes of American history, into the dark minds of racists, cops, and conservatives, to uncover the root of the hatred we've all come to know and recognize.

We used to be transphobic (part 1-Chloe)

Chloe & Laura — Wed, 11 Mar 2026 05:15:00 -0700

Chloe might be an actual trans person now… but she USED to be a massive *phobe! How did she unlearn her phobia and realize the person she was inside? What societal pressures kept her hiding, or unaware of the truth? And what finally pushed her over the edge into coming out and living loud and proud? That full story today.

Next time, Laura tells HER story of unlearning her transphobia, how having trans friends helped along that journey, and what other factors played a role.

The Fight for Sports Equality (Part 2 of 2)

Chloe & Laura — Wed, 25 Feb 2026 03:00:00 -0800

People (mostly men) LOVE to say "just face it, women could never compete with men, it's just facts" ...but is that true? Or have we been fed misinformation for literal centuries?

In this episode, we continue our tale about the centuries-long FIGHT for Women's equality in sports. This episode picks up in 1896, just at the dawn of the return of the Olympics (after a 1500 year period without them), and tracks up to the present day. Why weren't women allowed to compete? How did they earn the right to do so? Why did that somehow lead to LESS inclusion? What does the Cold War have to do with America finally letting women be athletic? (No, seriously) When did sports start "Gender Testing," and what is the motivation behind it?

We answer ALL of those questions AND MORE as we finish the tale of the FIGHT for Women's Sports Equality!

The Fight for Sports Equality (Part 1 of 2)

Chloe & Laura — Wed, 11 Feb 2026 03:00:00 -0800

Have women ALWAYS been less athletic than men? Or could there be an explanation as to why that's the case? (Maybe something to do with PATRIARCHY?!)

In this episode, we break down the history of women's inclusion in sports, going alllll the way back to ancient times, including ancient Rome, Indigenous cultures, BCE China, and more, chronicling the PURPOSE of sporting throughout history, when women were included, when they STOPPED being included, and the various socio-cultural factors that altered our evolution and created the athletic dichotomy between gender that we see today.

Epstein's Link to the Anti-Trans Movement

Chloe & Laura — Mon, 02 Feb 2026 03:30:00 -0800

EMERGENCY BROADCAST: NEW FILE DROP!

*TRIGGER WARNING* We will be reading, aloud, one of the 'FILES' that was released, detailing a sinister plan that reveals who was ACTUALLY behind all the stuff that trans people have been accused of for the last few decades...

A WHOLE lot of stuff is finally coming to light. It TURNS OUT... the venn diagram of 'transphobes' and 'pedos' is a nearly perfect circle, and almost all of the transphobic rhetoric we've seen in the last 30 years has been created BY dark, sinister forces with ulterior motives--namely, to point the spotlight away from their own fetishes and ONTO a group of innocent victims.

In this episode, a MASSIVE part of the conspiracy against trans people is revealed, and you WILL NOT BELIEVE some of the connections we made...

27 Trans Terms You Should Know (Part 2)

Chloe & Laura — Wed, 28 Jan 2026 03:00:00 -0800

Whether you're newly out, just exploring the community, or trying to do some research to be more supportive of a friend or family member who you found out is transitioning... there are a LOT of terms around being transgender (or any variation thereof) that can be hard to parse, and sometimes you just don't feel comfortable asking someone to do the emotional labor of explaining it to you!

That's what this two-part episode is for!!

That's not to say this video ISN'T for you if you're already an expert on queer terminology... because we're also going to explain the HISTORY of these words: where they came from, who coined them, why they're used, why there's pushback, and why they're important!!

In this episode, we're finishing up with the remaining 13 of the 27 terms Chloe researched, including: what's the difference between 'transgender, transsexual, transvestite, and drag,' and how did those terms slowly unfold into each other over the course of the last 150 years? In order to explain that, we have to talk about the difference between 'gender identity' and 'gender expression,' before we dive into a whole series of terms: gender-affirming surgery, hormone replacement therapy, puberty blockers, facial feminization/masculinization surgery, and gender dysphoria vs body dysmorphia.

Then we wrap the whole thing up with the most controversial word of them all: autogynephilia. No matter what you know about this word already, you're going to be surprised by the long (and insidious) history behind it.

27 Trans Terms You Should Know (Part 1)

Chloe & Laura — Wed, 14 Jan 2026 03:00:00 -0800

"My friend came out to me and I have no idea what they actually said! What is "genderf*ck"?? Why do we need the term "birthing person"? Why does my queer friend keep complaining about 'TERF's? My friend said she's genderfluid but NOT genderqueer? Help!"

If any of that sounds like you, this might be the podcast for you. We're going to break down what some of the most common transgender-related terms actually mean!

That's not to say this episode isn't for you if you're already an expert on queer terminology... because we're ALSO going to explain the history of these words: where they came from, who coined them, why they're used, why there's pushback, and why they're important!!

In this episode, we'll go over 14 of the 27 terms Chloe researched, including: "cis," cisgender, transgender, AMAB, AFAB, TERF, Gender-Critical, FART (no, really), Birthing Person, Pregnant Person, Chestfeeding, Non-Binary, Genderfluid, Genderqueer, Gender non-conforming, & Genderf*ck.

Is the Gregorian Calendar... Patriarchy??

Chloe & Laura — Wed, 31 Dec 2025 05:00:00 -0800

Did men ruin calendars??
Because it's the end of the year, curiosity got the better of Laura, and she decided to look into why our calendar is organized the way it is. Why are there 12 months? Why are there such a random number of days in each month? Why are their names of the so nonsensical? How did ancient civilizations organize their calendars? And is the answer to every one of these questions just, "PATRIARCHY"?!

The answer then raises new questions: Why DON'T we organize our calendar around a natural cycle like the moon? Why did ancient matriarchal cultures ALL organize their years around the moon? What role did Catholicism play in the destruction of ancient ways of organizing time??

Literally all of those answers and more (plus quite a bit of rambling) in this episode.

Secret Trans Cultures: Indigenous History They Don't Want You to Know - PART 3

Chloe & Laura — Wed, 17 Dec 2025 02:30:00 -0800

Before colonialism took over the globe, before the Abrahamic/patriarchal Religions took hold, there were trans people. In fact, EVERY pre-colonized culture had a version of trans people, and in EVERY culture, the same belief cropped up again and again: people who were cross-gender or 'between' genders were the people with supernatural abilities, capable of communing with the spirit realm, heal sickness and disease, sense evil, befriend animals, see the future, and more...

In PART THREE of our exploration of gender variance in pre-colonial cultures, we explore 1) slaves who were FORCED to be trans, 2) how terminology has evolved and been co-opted to fit into larger colonial societies, 3) alternate possible causes for alternative gender identities, and most importantly... 4) the spiritual connections / superpowers that trans people were believed to hold. Some of these cultures are still holding it down in the fight against colonizers, and to them we say: KEEP IT UP.

Today, we're covering another SIX cultures (although it's secretly a lot more), and the history of the gender-differing people within them. Namely: The various Two Spirit identies of Indigenous North America, the Köçek (or 'forcibly transed slaves') of the Ottoman Empire, the Sworn Virgins (trans men) of the Balkans, the HIGHLY spiritually connected Machi of Mapuche culture in Chile and Argentina (and their FIGHT against colonizers), the Chibados of Ndongo and Matamba, and the Femminiello, who may have evolved from the Galli, in Italy. Join us on this vision quest deep into the past to learn more about our present, what could have been, and what may still be to come!

BONUS - Oklahoma University Scandal: Religious Discrimination or a GRIFT?

Chloe & Laura — Sun, 07 Dec 2025 03:00:00 -0800

Samantha Fulnecky, a junior at the University of Oklahoma, has cried RELIGIOUS PERSECUTION after she FAILED a Psychology research paper, wherein she ignored the rubric & requirements and INSTEAD wrote about her personal beliefs that trans people are "Demonic" and "listening to Satan." Her professor's administrative assistant, who she knew would be grading the assignment, was a transgender woman named Mel Curth.

Mainstream Media has been covering this story as "Transgender teacher fails student for quoting the Bible!" -- a narrative that has been HEAVILY touted and pushed by Turning Point USA's University of Oklahoma chapter.

So today, we're going to give you JUST THE FACTS about this story: what was the research paper she was supposed to be responding to? How did she respond? What has been the fallout from her actions? Why is she so insistent on turning FAILURE into a media moment? And more importantly... what can WE do to reinstate Mel Curth, who was put on probation?

Secret Trans Cultures: Indigenous History They Don't Want You to Know About - Part 2

Chloe & Laura — Wed, 03 Dec 2025 03:00:00 -0800

Before colonialism took over the globe, before Christianity, Buddhism, and the other patriarchal Religions took hold, there were trans people. In fact, EVERY pre-colonized culture had a version of trans people, many having as many as 5 recognized genders. And in every colonization story--they were the first ones targeted and unalived. Why?

That's some of what we explore in PART TWO of our exploration of the pre-colonial cultures and their gender identities, how those identities evolved, and what they look like today--at least, the ones that still exist.

Today, we're covering another FOUR of those cultures, and the history of the gender-differing people within them. Namely, the 5 genders of the Bugis, the Irawhiti of the Māori, the Mahu of the Hawai'ian Islands, and the Fa'afafine of Samoa. Join us on this vision quest deep into the past to learn more about our present, what could have been, and what may still be to come!

Secret Trans Cultures: Indigenous History They Don't Want You to Know About - Part 1

Chloe & Laura — Wed, 19 Nov 2025 03:00:00 -0800

You hear it a lot these days: "Trans People just came out of nowhere!", "This whole transgender thing is a made up fad!", "There's no evidence of trans people ever existing before!"

Except... none of that is true. Before colonialism, before Christianity, before patriarchy... there were trans people. Trans people were such a natural part of humanity, that transgender people existed in nearly every indigenous and pre-colonial culture across the entire globe. Not only that, but those trans people were seen as 'closer to god,' and in nearly every society, were chosen as spiritual and religious leaders, sometimes being the only ones trusted to choose the King.

Much of that history was lost to the violence of missionaries and colonizers, but some of it remained. Today, we're covering FOUR of those cultures, and the history of the gender-differing people within them. Namely, the Hijra, Kathoey, Muxe, and Bakla.

Intersex Rights ARE Trans Rights

Chloe & Laura — Fri, 07 Nov 2025 00:00:00 -0800

What does it mean to be intersex? How many intersex people are in the world? How many different variations (that we know of) currently exist? Is it possible to be intersex and not know? (yes) Why are people so obsessed with performing nonconsensual surgery on newborns?! How much overlap is there between Intersex and Transgender rights?!?!

We answer all of these questions and more in our first deep-dive into Intersex People. Our main takeaway? If we want Equality For All... it behooves us to drop what we're doing and start fighting for Intersex Rights, and NOW.

Chloe was in a Cult! - Indoctrination, Brainwashing, and Abuse

Chloe & Laura — Fri, 10 Oct 2025 00:00:00 -0700

When Chloe first moved to Los Angeles, she wanted to be an actor. She didn't know she was Chloe yet, was just a lost 'boy' making her way in the world, and she stumbled onto what seemed like a free ticket to success: a 'casting director' who was teaching a free acting class to find new talent. But from there, she entered into a world of lies, deceit, misery, abuse, mental manipulation, trauma, and more.

This episode breaks down her experience in the cult, how cults function, the mental manipulation tactics employed to keep people trapped, and the fallout from the whole ordeal.

A MASSIVE trigger warning: This episode features descriptions of SA and other forms of abuse.

"Transmaxxing"?? A Deep Dive into Incel Culture

Chloe & Laura — Fri, 26 Sep 2025 00:00:00 -0700

As you may have seen recently (and probably for the first time) the word "transmaxxer" has been gracing our social media feeds. This is a very specific type of person, a far-right incel who *pretends* to be transgender, and is guilty of nearly every thing that the real transgender community is frequently accused of...

WHAT?! As they say, *every* accusation is a confession. Is it possible the haters have only been experiencing *transmaxxing* content and still have no idea what transgender actually means?

What do we ACTUALLY know about Narcissism/NPD? (and other Psychology Questions)

Chloe & Laura — Fri, 12 Sep 2025 00:00:00 -0700

Where does the concept of narcissism come from? What causes it? Is there a genetic component? Can people with NPD be 'cured'?

Chloe dug into the research and read all the studies and has an alternate take on how it all fits together. Facts like, "there is no single unifying factor that defines all narcissists," or "the only proof that we have that there is a genetic component comes from a self-report mail-in survey on child twins" are just the tip of the iceberg as we explore everything that the psychology community currently knows and understands about what is currently classified as a Personality Disorder.

IMPORTANT NOTE: If you are the type of person who has dated a narcissist for a long time because you believe you can 'cure' them, or because you have empathy for their situation and 'understand' why they are the way that they are--NARCISSISM is REAL, and there are a lot of narcissists who learn how to fake healing so that you will stay and continue to give them supply. Do not take this episode as a reason not to leave an abusive situation or a situation that causes you distress. While on a big-picture scale, we may not know very much about the personality disorder, we are also nowhere near a 'cure,' because that might literally require rebuilding society from the ground up. I don't think this was made clear enough in the episode.

Sex Work: The Stripping Industry

Chloe & Laura — Fri, 29 Aug 2025 00:01:00 -0700

In a world that treats sex workers as shameful gold-diggers or heathens, we're taking a different approach and viewing it as what it is: a job. Laura shares her experience over the last decade as a stripper - the reason she got into it in the first place, the benefits, and some of the darker side of the job. We aim only to speak honestly, and to recognize that a job is a job, and no one deserves to be treated as less than a person because of what they need to do to survive.

Trans Women in Sports - Myths vs Facts

Chloe & Laura — Fri, 15 Aug 2025 07:23:53 -0700

One of the hottest topics in the world right now is whether or not Trans Women should be allowed to play Women's Sports! The problem is, it's incredibly difficult to find true, proven information on the subject without falling into a rabbit hole of mis- and disinformation. So... we did the work for you! Chloe read every study ever published on trans people's athletic performance, as well as studies that were done analyzing those studies, read a bunch of articles, and gathered the information together into this handy dandy episode!

The study analyzing the studies, including why basically all of the studies that have been done so far are either deeply biased or intentionally misrepresentative: https://cces.ca/sites/default/files/content/docs/2024-01/transgender-women-athletes-and-elitesport-a-scientific-review-en.pdf

Laura's Experience in the 'Troubled Teen' Industry: Torture, Brainwashing, & More

Chloe & Laura — Sat, 02 Aug 2025 00:01:26 -0700

Did you know there are children being tortured in the United States every day? Or that the Mormon Church is behind a LOT of it? In this (no video) episode, Chloe asks Laura to break down her experience in the "Troubled Teen" Industry, an insidious multi-$billion scheme designed to shame parents and children in order to wring a fortune out of them by convincing said parents to send their 'disruptive' or 'troubled' children to 'rehabilitation' facilities. Once there, a sinister plot begins to brainwash, mentally break down, and sometimes physically abuse these children until they 'act right.'

If you have any experience in one of the facilities mentioned in this episode, or another one we didn't talk about, leave a comment below, or send us an email! We want to hear your story.

Trump EO Declares 'All People are Female'

Chloe & Laura — Fri, 01 Aug 2025 23:55:24 -0700

Project 2025 is well underway! Within his first week in office, Trump passed a number of horrifying executive orders targeting marginalized people, rescinding rights and bringing us backwards literal decades. In this episode, Chloe & Laura focus in one just one of these executive orders: the one stripping trans people of their right to an identity and government documents, and simultaneously defining, scientifically, ALL American Citizens as biologically female(whoops). We talk through the ramifications of this decision, how it is directly impacting Chloe’s life, and the blatant hypocrisy of the MAGA party claiming to stand for women’s rights (mainly Laura, ranting).

The 2025 LA Fires: Our Experience (OG: Los Angeles is on Fire!!)

Chloe & Laura — Fri, 01 Aug 2025 23:51:08 -0700

Our experience with the Los Angeles fires! (Recorded while they were still burning... we hadn't slept due to evacuation)
The SoCal fires were devastating. People lost their homes, loved ones, schools, and pets. We had to evacuate from our apartment, and are very grateful our building was still there when we came back.
Beyond that... there has been a LOT of misinformation going around about how the CA state government handled this catastrophe, and we are here (doing our best) to debunk it!

JK Rowling (Robert Galbraith) is a Man (Allegedly)

Chloe & Laura — Fri, 01 Aug 2025 23:43:48 -0700

Is JK Rowling a trans man?! Stunning new evidence (and a lot of old evidence) suggests: yes!
Chloe & Laura break down the evidence, along with a few anecdotes, descriptions & personal experiences of what’s it’s like to be a closeted and/or unknowing trans person. Do we support diagnosing people as trans without a medical license? We do not! But in this one edge case of a billionaire actively harming the community, are we doing it anyway? You betcha.
Let us know if you agree or disagree with our (obviously very correct) take on the issue🔥!
