But how have you been miss? 0:00:42.400 --> 0:00:43.800 I actually got a new puppy. 0:00:44.280 --> 0:00:47.920 Yeah, introduce us. 0:00:49.400 --> 0:00:50.880 Awesome precious. 0:00:53.560 --> 0:00:56.560 Yes, that looks like my sunny, except my sunny is 0:00:56.880 --> 0:00:58.480 like the apricot color. 0:00:59.320 --> 0:01:00.600 He's a Barnado. 0:01:01.760 --> 0:01:04.600 Berniese mountain dog and a doodle. We need to have 0:01:04.600 --> 0:01:05.480 a puppy day. 0:01:05.400 --> 0:01:07.240 So that'd be so cute. 0:01:08.080 --> 0:01:09.760 Okay, we're gonna catch up with Zeta and all of 0:01:09.760 --> 0:01:12.800 her excellent news and are let's celebrate that segment. But 0:01:12.920 --> 0:01:17.479 first we're gonna talk about why we fucking hate it here? Yeah, 0:01:17.560 --> 0:01:19.480 why we fucking hate it here? So I have a 0:01:19.480 --> 0:01:22.600 couple of things I wanted to discuss versus like this 0:01:22.720 --> 0:01:27.920 ongoing thing with like Lance Armstrong and Caitlin Jenner. 0:01:29.160 --> 0:01:31.320 What are what are those two men saying? 0:01:31.800 --> 0:01:41.600 Right? What do they have to say? Well, the men 0:01:41.800 --> 0:01:49.440 while the men are talking talking, So yeah, they think 0:01:49.640 --> 0:01:54.720 that trans people should not participate in in gendered sports. 0:01:55.640 --> 0:01:59.320 I had this whole thing, I had, and so like 0:01:59.360 --> 0:02:02.520 a week ago, they recorded a podcast together and they 0:02:02.560 --> 0:02:06.680 have of course together, Lance Armstrong and Kaitlyn Jenner are 0:02:06.680 --> 0:02:08.320 the only thing that they're going to fucking talk about 0:02:08.520 --> 0:02:13.320 is trans people in sports. And of course, Lance Armstrong's take, 0:02:13.720 --> 0:02:17.440 many people were surprised to learn, was that he feels 0:02:17.480 --> 0:02:22.079 that trans people should have their own category of sports 0:02:22.560 --> 0:02:25.560 and should not be able to participate in engendered sports. 0:02:26.240 --> 0:02:31.080 And Caitlyn Jenner agrees with him, of course, And I 0:02:31.160 --> 0:02:34.320 just I find it funny and ironic because Caitlyn Jenner 0:02:34.360 --> 0:02:38.000 is a tranny who plays golf in the Women's Golfing 0:02:38.080 --> 0:02:43.400 League and Lance Armstrong is most famous for cheating and 0:02:44.600 --> 0:02:50.200 in his sport and only having one testicle. So like, like, 0:02:50.400 --> 0:02:54.640 you know that tea is a little low, Mama, The 0:02:54.680 --> 0:02:55.760 tea levels are low. 0:02:55.880 --> 0:02:56.520 Can we get it? 0:02:56.880 --> 0:02:59.600 Can we get it? Can we get a look at 0:02:59.600 --> 0:03:00.880 his levels. 0:03:02.040 --> 0:03:04.760 Let me tell you how I feel about these conversations. Honestly, 0:03:05.360 --> 0:03:11.120 the trans people in sports conversations are just bait. Yes, 0:03:11.520 --> 0:03:12.680 that's really all it is. 0:03:13.600 --> 0:03:14.080 It's bait. 0:03:14.160 --> 0:03:17.600 It's it's the easiest way to generate engagement these days 0:03:17.680 --> 0:03:23.520 to be a SIS person or even a white late transitioner. 0:03:24.800 --> 0:03:32.400 You know who it's, mam. But you know it's it's. 0:03:32.280 --> 0:03:35.600 Really easy to generate engagement when you talk about things 0:03:35.640 --> 0:03:40.000 that quite frankly, you don't know enough about. And even 0:03:40.040 --> 0:03:44.280 more so than that, these conversations are so they're invalid 0:03:44.320 --> 0:03:47.280 because they like from the jump, because they assume that 0:03:47.360 --> 0:03:50.200 we're all the same, they all trans people are the same, 0:03:50.680 --> 0:03:54.480 and we're just we're absolutely not. You know, listen, I'm 0:03:54.520 --> 0:03:57.000 not someone who wants to participate in sports. I don't 0:03:57.040 --> 0:04:00.160 really see that for myself. This doesn't really fit my fantasy, 0:04:01.520 --> 0:04:01.720 you know. 0:04:01.960 --> 0:04:03.240 But it's not that type of girl. 0:04:03.440 --> 0:04:04.440 We have another kind of girl. 0:04:05.200 --> 0:04:07.880 But honestly, if you really think about a carbon if 0:04:07.920 --> 0:04:10.080 I was Caitlin Jenner and I was that bricky and 0:04:10.360 --> 0:04:13.040 you know, old, and I said I really transitioned that late, 0:04:13.160 --> 0:04:15.160 I too would think that no trans people deserve to 0:04:15.160 --> 0:04:17.920 be in sports. But that's the thing, Like, you know, 0:04:18.080 --> 0:04:23.600 one thing that these conversations lack is nuanced. And you know, listen, 0:04:23.800 --> 0:04:26.360 life is not about black and white answers, even if 0:04:26.400 --> 0:04:27.360 it hurts your feelings. 0:04:27.480 --> 0:04:28.720 You know, that's the truth of the matter. 0:04:28.760 --> 0:04:30.560 I'm not about to get like Joe Rogan on it 0:04:30.880 --> 0:04:32.680 of right, you know, or anything like that, But I'm saying, 0:04:32.720 --> 0:04:37.279 like there are moments there are people that have literally 0:04:37.360 --> 0:04:40.840 been on hormones or blockers since they were kids, right, 0:04:41.279 --> 0:04:44.800 you know what I mean, Like their biology is so 0:04:44.880 --> 0:04:49.480 similar to like the a natal person of their gender. 0:04:49.760 --> 0:04:52.599 You know, so those people, like, you know, like there are. 0:04:52.520 --> 0:04:55.440 Just like versus somebody who started when they were fifty or. 0:04:55.640 --> 0:04:58.480 Exactly, you know, exactly, And like that's the thing people 0:04:58.480 --> 0:05:01.080 don't understand, Like we're all so people are all so 0:05:01.400 --> 0:05:04.719 different across the board, and you know, a lot of 0:05:04.720 --> 0:05:07.719 this ship if we're got to be real about it's 0:05:07.880 --> 0:05:11.159 a case by case basis. I mean, I'm like that's 0:05:11.200 --> 0:05:14.760 the realty, you know. Like everyone wants an easy answer, 0:05:14.920 --> 0:05:17.200 you know, people want easy answers. They want an answer 0:05:17.240 --> 0:05:22.200 that covers a wide gamut of questions and issues that 0:05:22.320 --> 0:05:24.719 matter to them, and so that's why we keep seeing 0:05:24.720 --> 0:05:30.080 these lame discussions that they're honestly tired, they're they're overdone, 0:05:30.880 --> 0:05:33.480 and we keep seeing these discussions about trans people in sports, 0:05:33.520 --> 0:05:35.600 and it's just because people don't want to. 0:05:35.880 --> 0:05:37.080 I don't know if they don't want to or if 0:05:37.080 --> 0:05:38.320 they're just not at that point yet. 0:05:38.880 --> 0:05:40.760 It's you know, we're at that point where like, you know, 0:05:41.440 --> 0:05:43.840 we need to show people that we're all we're all different. 0:05:45.000 --> 0:05:48.520 They know we're here now, they know we're here, We've 0:05:48.520 --> 0:05:52.720 come out of the shadows. They know that we you know, 0:05:53.640 --> 0:05:56.080 deserve to like live or whatever. Will kind of in 0:05:56.080 --> 0:06:00.320 some places they do, but you know, like getting like 0:06:00.360 --> 0:06:07.039 but actually looking at us as you know, subdivisions of 0:06:07.160 --> 0:06:09.360 various trans people who make up a trans population. 0:06:09.720 --> 0:06:12.160 Yeah, and there's a lot, Yeah, there's a lot, a 0:06:12.200 --> 0:06:12.960 lot of variety. 0:06:13.040 --> 0:06:15.800 Yeah, you know, I just want I want to say, like, honestly, 0:06:16.040 --> 0:06:20.760 the gender conversations, you know, unless we're the ones doing 0:06:20.760 --> 0:06:23.240 it like you, girls like us, you know, hush that 0:06:23.320 --> 0:06:26.960 girls like us, Unless we're the ones having those conversations 0:06:27.000 --> 0:06:28.880 on a podcast, it's just all. 0:06:28.720 --> 0:06:30.280 A part of the gender grift. 0:06:30.560 --> 0:06:33.320 Yes, it's a total grift right now, that so many 0:06:33.320 --> 0:06:34.440 people are cashing in on. 0:06:34.880 --> 0:06:36.680 It's like a gold rush. 0:06:36.800 --> 0:06:39.080 You know, and it's the only thing that's made Lance 0:06:39.200 --> 0:06:43.200 Armstrong relevant. And I want to also say this show, 0:06:43.720 --> 0:06:46.880 the show that he's on, the reality show that he's on, 0:06:47.200 --> 0:06:50.520 fucking called Stars on Mars, which is like supposed to 0:06:50.560 --> 0:06:53.760 be a bunch of celebrities I've never heard of, including 0:06:53.839 --> 0:06:58.040 Lance Armstrong, that are pretending to be on Mars in 0:06:58.080 --> 0:07:01.880 this reality show, and there is they're promoting a clip 0:07:01.880 --> 0:07:05.120 of him discussing his like basically doubling down on his 0:07:05.200 --> 0:07:08.919 position on the show. Adam Rippon is one of the 0:07:08.960 --> 0:07:10.760 other I do know who Adam Rippon is. He's the 0:07:10.800 --> 0:07:11.760 gay figure skater. 0:07:12.200 --> 0:07:14.840 He's one of schwarts from vander Hump Rolls is on 0:07:14.880 --> 0:07:15.400 there as well. 0:07:15.480 --> 0:07:18.560 Oh okay, he has him there. He's trying to rehab 0:07:18.560 --> 0:07:19.480 his reputation. 0:07:19.480 --> 0:07:23.440 We don't want to talk about that, but Adam Rippon, 0:07:23.920 --> 0:07:25.960 you know, a bunch of people in the house challenged 0:07:26.040 --> 0:07:28.600 Lance Armstrong on this stance he took on the podcast 0:07:28.640 --> 0:07:35.280 with Caitlyn Jenner, and uh, they basically told him all 0:07:35.280 --> 0:07:38.080 that they don't fuck with him anymore.

And like there, I feel like all of this, 0:07:56.320 --> 0:07:58.680 like I have a I'm a conspiracy theorist about this 0:07:58.760 --> 0:08:01.040 kind of stuff. I feel like all of this is 0:08:01.320 --> 0:08:04.680 just to boost the numbers for Lance and to boost 0:08:04.760 --> 0:08:06.400 the numbers for this fucking show. 0:08:06.640 --> 0:08:09.720 You know, I agree, because talking about trans people is 0:08:09.760 --> 0:08:12.800 the fastest way to get yourself on the front page 0:08:12.800 --> 0:08:15.600 of any website, is the fastest way to turn yourself 0:08:15.600 --> 0:08:19.000 into a trending topic, because you know, we're so polarizing, 0:08:19.880 --> 0:08:21.800 you know, even though we're humans, you know, we're so 0:08:21.920 --> 0:08:24.920 polarizing our existence and how we live our life and 0:08:24.920 --> 0:08:25.480 the things that. 0:08:25.480 --> 0:08:26.680 We go through ticket where we are. 0:08:26.720 --> 0:08:29.240 It's a polarizing thing for a lot of people because 0:08:29.640 --> 0:08:36.760 most people can't even comprehend the concept of you know, 0:08:38.160 --> 0:08:40.360 having dysphoria or just like being translated. 0:08:40.400 --> 0:08:41.679 It just doesn't make sense to them. 0:08:41.520 --> 0:08:46.040 You know, And I get it. I kind of get 0:08:46.080 --> 0:08:48.480 it because you know, let me put it this way, 0:08:48.600 --> 0:08:51.000 I'm gonna draw I'm gonna draw a parallel for you. 0:08:52.400 --> 0:08:56.160 I was watching One thousand Pounds Sisters last. 0:08:55.559 --> 0:08:57.920 Yes, okay, those girls. 0:08:58.040 --> 0:08:59.080 Yeah, I love them. 0:08:59.160 --> 0:08:59.439 Yes. 0:09:00.120 --> 0:09:01.960 To tell you something, I will admit, when I first 0:09:01.960 --> 0:09:04.800 started watching the show, I didn't have a lot of 0:09:04.800 --> 0:09:09.320 empathy at first because I they were When I looked 0:09:09.320 --> 0:09:12.439 at them, I was like, they're the way they look 0:09:12.760 --> 0:09:15.400 is really foreign to me. And that was definitely like 0:09:15.440 --> 0:09:17.559 a moment of like me being like fat phobic, right, 0:09:17.640 --> 0:09:19.760 you know what I'm saying. Yeah, Then that when I 0:09:19.960 --> 0:09:22.360 when that, when that went off in my head, I 0:09:22.400 --> 0:09:24.880 was like, oh my god, yeah, this is how like 0:09:24.960 --> 0:09:28.640 transphobia works. Like they look at us and they're like 0:09:28.920 --> 0:09:30.640 that don't make no sense to me, Like how did 0:09:30.679 --> 0:09:31.240 we get here? 0:09:31.640 --> 0:09:31.840 You know? 0:09:32.360 --> 0:09:35.200 And then the other thing about it is like even 0:09:35.200 --> 0:09:37.360 when you're it doesn't matter if you pass or not, 0:09:37.440 --> 0:09:39.000 because they're still going to do that if they know 0:09:39.120 --> 0:09:42.160 your tea, they're still going to have those those thoughts 0:09:42.160 --> 0:09:44.280 in her head. So it's like, you know, we all 0:09:44.280 --> 0:09:47.120 have the potential to be a little bit prejudiced to 0:09:47.200 --> 0:09:50.280 someone just because they're unfamiliar to us. It just so 0:09:50.480 --> 0:09:54.040 happens that we're everyone's favorite target, right, now. 0:09:54.000 --> 0:09:57.520 Oh, you know, because yeah, that's the time we're living on. 0:09:57.679 --> 0:09:59.959 Unfortunately, you know, I'm not saying I empathize with transphobes 0:10:00.080 --> 0:10:00.600 or anything like that. 0:10:00.640 --> 0:10:01.240 No, no, no, no, no. 0:10:02.160 --> 0:10:05.240 I found myself in positions where I wasn't being the 0:10:05.280 --> 0:10:09.839 best person because I judge someone by their appearance or 0:10:10.559 --> 0:10:13.560 my perception of their lifestyle. I've had moments like that, 0:10:13.800 --> 0:10:15.079 and I just want to you know, I just think 0:10:15.080 --> 0:10:17.080 that's something that we all need to like really talk about. 0:10:17.160 --> 0:10:18.880 And I'm like, I'm saying, like, we don't have real 0:10:18.880 --> 0:10:21.920 conversations these days. All the conversations are to drum up, 0:10:22.080 --> 0:10:26.160 used to drum up clicks, and you know, so it's 0:10:26.200 --> 0:10:27.679 good to like actually like stay here and talk to 0:10:27.720 --> 0:10:29.440 you about it, because that's the real tea. 0:10:30.120 --> 0:10:34.040 Yeah, you had no career before you started. 0:10:33.760 --> 0:10:35.800 Talking about us, right exactly. 0:10:36.280 --> 0:10:39.640 It's it's plain as day. It's the gender grift. Like 0:10:40.120 --> 0:10:42.559 so many people catching on are cashing into. 0:10:42.360 --> 0:10:43.000 The gender drift. 0:10:43.240 --> 0:10:46.680 So many people, Yeah, people are using it to get 0:10:46.679 --> 0:10:48.439 themselves elected to office. 0:10:49.000 --> 0:10:53.000 Right exactly, And I truly believe that will be the 0:10:53.040 --> 0:10:55.160 only way the Republicans are going to try to get 0:10:55.200 --> 0:10:56.600 into the office in twenty twenty four. 0:10:56.800 --> 0:10:59.480 You know, yeah, they have no platform, so you know, 0:11:00.080 --> 0:11:01.480 it's just easy to focus on us. 0:11:01.520 --> 0:11:02.960 We're the newest well you. 0:11:02.960 --> 0:11:04.920 Know, everyone else were the newest thing on the block, right, 0:11:05.440 --> 0:11:06.320 you know, we've been here forever. 0:11:06.440 --> 0:11:08.719 But you know, I mean and yeah, I just. 0:11:08.679 --> 0:11:10.679 Want to point out like a couple of last things 0:11:10.720 --> 0:11:12.200 I want to say about the like trans people in 0:11:12.280 --> 0:11:14.959 sports whatever, it is all a grift, It is all 0:11:15.000 --> 0:11:18.520 of a distraction because when you think about it, the 0:11:18.880 --> 0:11:24.120 Olympic Athletes Association settled this years ago. Many sports associations 0:11:24.160 --> 0:11:27.680 settled this thing years ago. Why is it just now 0:11:27.720 --> 0:11:31.439 being dug back up? And it's literally all about fodder 0:11:31.720 --> 0:11:37.680 for for getting people to engage and to you know, 0:11:37.920 --> 0:11:42.160 sign on with these transphobic beliefs. And the only other 0:11:42.160 --> 0:11:45.839 thing I want to say too is that, like, our 0:11:45.920 --> 0:11:49.319 bodies are such a big part of the conversation when 0:11:49.360 --> 0:11:51.880 it comes to trans people in sports and how weird 0:11:52.000 --> 0:11:56.600 and different our bodies are, but so many people tend 0:11:56.600 --> 0:12:00.600 to forget that, like male and female CISP bodies are 0:12:00.640 --> 0:12:06.480 also very very weird varied. Yes, they're very varied. 0:12:06.920 --> 0:12:09.000 Have you just weird? Does our as we are? 0:12:09.280 --> 0:12:12.040 Yeah?

She has a very famous speech called 0:14:31.000 --> 0:14:33.640 y'all bet or quiet down now. And in that speech, 0:14:33.720 --> 0:14:38.720 she's addressing a large group of gay men who are 0:14:38.960 --> 0:14:42.360 marching for their rights and for you know, you know, equality, 0:14:42.760 --> 0:14:44.200 and she's like, y'all, I'm not going to cast me 0:14:44.200 --> 0:14:48.040 out of this, like I fought for y'all, I you know, 0:14:48.440 --> 0:14:50.360 you're not going to exclude me. And that has been 0:14:50.400 --> 0:14:52.800 the narrative for such a long time. You know, we 0:14:52.960 --> 0:14:55.040 because it's like we got to gay marriage, we got 0:14:55.080 --> 0:14:58.880 all this stuff right, but trans people were never it 0:14:59.000 --> 0:15:00.320 was always like station. 0:15:00.680 --> 0:15:02.960 It was always like we'll get to you later, you know. 0:15:03.720 --> 0:15:06.840 And I've talked about this before in some of my writing. 0:15:07.440 --> 0:15:09.840 When I worked for Woosy. 0:15:10.680 --> 0:15:11.880 You know, the hrc. 0:15:13.120 --> 0:15:17.880 Knew that bathroom laws were going to be the next 0:15:18.080 --> 0:15:21.760 like you know assault, like writing assault to LGBTQ people. 0:15:22.080 --> 0:15:26.080 But they thought that the trade off of pushing gay 0:15:26.080 --> 0:15:34.680 marriage through you know, trumped for lack of a better term, 0:15:34.840 --> 0:15:38.840 you know, any need to pursue like trans equality initiatives. 0:15:39.080 --> 0:15:41.680 So you know, just saying that, you know, just like 0:15:41.760 --> 0:15:45.040 think about that. Like our major advocacy group, the biggest 0:15:45.040 --> 0:15:52.480 advocate degree that we have for lgbtq QQ rights in America, 0:15:53.680 --> 0:15:57.920 literally saw the signs and ignored them. Now I'm not 0:15:57.960 --> 0:16:00.360 saying that they were the only like arbiters of like 0:16:00.400 --> 0:16:02.800 our safety and they were like they were like the 0:16:02.840 --> 0:16:05.520 main but they're the front line that they're the money, right, 0:16:05.560 --> 0:16:07.600 They're the money gays, They're the games of the money 0:16:08.440 --> 0:16:11.600 and money talks and like they could have like lobbied 0:16:12.120 --> 0:16:15.000 against those rules, those those laws and all of that stuff. 0:16:15.040 --> 0:16:18.120 But it's like now it's almost like because they let it, 0:16:18.160 --> 0:16:20.960 because it's gotten so big, it's grown so much. It's 0:16:21.000 --> 0:16:25.120 like HRC and their funding is not enough. Now you need, 0:16:26.000 --> 0:16:28.680 you know, empathy to come from like the highest levels 0:16:28.720 --> 0:16:31.640 of our society in order for people to see that 0:16:31.720 --> 0:16:36.240 we actually deserve to be here. So you know, a 0:16:36.320 --> 0:16:38.440 lot of people have let us down up until this point, 0:16:38.480 --> 0:16:39.600 and that's why we're here right now. 0:16:40.000 --> 0:16:42.160 Yeah, And if you're going to give, you know, money 0:16:42.160 --> 0:16:46.280 to the HRC or other big LGBT organizations like that, 0:16:46.360 --> 0:16:50.280 think about maybe giving your money to a trans led 0:16:50.400 --> 0:16:54.840 organization that specifically centers the needs of trans people. Yes, 0:16:55.840 --> 0:16:59.560 that is more important now than ever. I think trans. 0:16:59.280 --> 0:17:01.760 Travel find y'all can donate to trans Travel FUD. 0:17:01.600 --> 0:17:03.920 Trans Atlanta Atlanta Housing. 0:17:04.359 --> 0:17:06.119 Atlanta, Transland Transhouses. 0:17:07.400 --> 0:17:10.399 Yes, and you also don't need to you know, like 0:17:10.720 --> 0:17:13.320 the Transgender Like Legal Center. I don't know if that's 0:17:13.320 --> 0:17:14.840 what it's called, but you know, like, you know, there 0:17:14.840 --> 0:17:18.439 are places that have trans leadership destination tomorrow. 0:17:18.520 --> 0:17:20.200 Also, we've had them on the showy. 0:17:20.200 --> 0:17:22.919 Song Southerners on new ground.

I learned so much 0:19:28.600 --> 0:19:33.960 about production mastering all of that, and I feel like 0:19:34.359 --> 0:19:38.959 after that project was released, I crossed over from just 0:19:38.960 --> 0:19:42.960 being like a person who DJs really well and gets 0:19:43.040 --> 0:19:47.040 asked to DJ in places, you know, to a bona 0:19:47.080 --> 0:19:47.960 fide artist. 0:19:48.640 --> 0:19:52.840 So It's been nice to see people. 0:19:52.600 --> 0:19:55.840 Resonating with my work, you know, like the music is 0:19:55.880 --> 0:19:58.400 not just like sitting there, like it's actually getting like played, 0:19:58.920 --> 0:20:01.480 which is nice. Know I get played more like in 0:20:01.480 --> 0:20:04.520 the UK than I do and you know in America 0:20:04.520 --> 0:20:06.560 because it's a very underground sound, which is fine, you 0:20:06.600 --> 0:20:08.959 know whatever. But I am like kind of iterating on 0:20:09.359 --> 0:20:12.400 the things that I put on that last project, and 0:20:12.600 --> 0:20:16.120 we're moving in a direction. I think that it's going 0:20:16.200 --> 0:20:21.600 to see more actual like vocals, lyricism and all of that. 0:20:21.680 --> 0:20:24.320 You know, it may or may not be me, but 0:20:25.000 --> 0:20:27.159 you know it may be someone else, you know, but 0:20:27.200 --> 0:20:29.439 I'm heading it in that direction where I'm trying to, 0:20:29.600 --> 0:20:33.439 you know, just give a little bit more because like 0:20:33.480 --> 0:20:35.199 you know, I'm always telling people this, you know, like 0:20:35.320 --> 0:20:38.120 the electronic music world, it's so funny, like it started. 0:20:39.240 --> 0:20:42.600 It was started by black and queer people, and we 0:20:42.640 --> 0:20:45.480 don't own it anymore. Yeah, you know, we don't own 0:20:45.560 --> 0:20:49.000 that space anymore. And that's fine. You know, it's grown 0:20:49.040 --> 0:20:51.560 a lot and it's super diverse and it's here to stay. 0:20:52.080 --> 0:20:58.359 But I really really feel like I have a responsibility 0:20:58.440 --> 0:21:00.840 to kind of stake my aim as a black trans 0:21:00.840 --> 0:21:05.119 woman and E. D M. Because you know, there's Honey Dejeon, 0:21:05.320 --> 0:21:07.080 but there's not a lot of us, and there should 0:21:07.080 --> 0:21:09.359 be a lot of us, you know what I'm saying. Absolutely, 0:21:09.880 --> 0:21:11.240 you know, I'm not the kind of person that's like 0:21:11.320 --> 0:21:12.760 we need at least like one or two trans people. 0:21:12.760 --> 0:21:14.600
