TPT#6 - I Can Haz Testosterone?

George finally gets to the endocrinologist, hoping to start T sooner than later, but she tells him to check with the surgeon. Surgeon? He hadn't scheduled with a surgeon yet. Whoops! (Please forgive the page-flipping at the start, George is finding the right page in his notebook to read from.)

TPT#5 - Effing Therapy...



While George waits for his appointment with the endocrinologist, he decides to visit a therapist. Family and friends are supportive, but an outside viewpoint can be helpful while we wait. The WPATH Standards Of Care and ICATH model of Informed Consent may not require therapy for gender transition anymore, but that doesn't mean that it isn't beneficial anyway.

TPT#4 - Unhelpful Queers, Helpful Insurance.

Lily Tomlin, in character as Ernestine the Operator, once said "You must think HMO stands for 'Help Me Out'!" The endocrinologist's prettyboy receptionist was unhelpful and borderline obstructionist, to the point that a number of George's friends were expressing concerns about bigotry and discrimination. his insurance, however, wouldn't have any of it, and he's now (finally) on his way to an appointment with the endo.

Temporary Posting Schedule

Our first few episodes were released every other week, and that was what we had planned as a continuing schedule, but lots has been happening lately, so we have lots to say. Instead of recording hours-long episodes, or queuing episodes up two to three months in advance, we're going to release episodes weekly for the next month or so, beginning tomorrow!
