Coming up on today’s show: 

    The news is full of stories about things happening to the transgender community, but it’s not often that we hear about what every day life is like as a trans person in the United States. Imara Jones, journalist, founder and creator of Translash Media, and Tuck Woodstock, journalist, educator and host of the Gender Reveal podcast, and callers that identify as transgender shed light on what it’s like to live as a trans person, what gives them gender euphoria, and answer most commonly asked questions about being trans.

    New York City Councilmember Jennifer Gutiérrez (District 34: Williamsburg, Bushwick and Ridgewood), discusses her dissatisfaction with how the mayor’s budget proposal would handle 3-K and pre-kindergarten funding, plus other news of the day on housing, migrants and more.

    Peter Singer, philosopher, professor of bioethics at Princeton University, author of Animal Liberation in 1975 and Animal Liberation Now: The Definitive Classic Renewed (Harper Perennial, 2023), talks about the new edition of his classic 1975 work, connecting animal rights to crises from climate change to the spread of new viruses.

    Is your job more of a calling? Listeners who find deeper meaning in their work tell us how their vocation affects their broader lives.

Transcripts are posted to each segment as they become available.
