EP. 54 — What Not To Ask A Trans Person

Assigned as a female at birth, this week’s caller has been socially and medically transitioning for close to four years. He answers some of the most common questions cis people have for trans people. He also tells Gethard what questions you probably should not ask a trans person. And somehow, this involves the Italian ham known on The Sopranos as “gabagool.”
