We welcome actor Rachel Crowl ("The Lowdown," "New Amsterdam") two-time Obie award-winning actor, musician, photographer and voice-over artist — and wife of Helen — to talk about transition, being authentic, un-retiring from acting, and getting a "fourth act" in her career.

With six episodes completed, our co-hosts are considering adding guests to the podcast. Helen and Dylan have some ideas of who they'd like to ask, while Jay is being secretive. And we're fishing for your ideas — but you'll have to join the Patreon to suggest guests.

No one who lives in the U.S. really likes our healthcare system, do they? Except maybe insurance companies? With little prior warning, Dylan lost his longtime doctor due to an insurance change. We discuss the fallout, the difficulties of navigating the healthcare industry whether or not you're LGBTQ, and ask listeners to share their personal stories.

What's the secret of a happy relationship, even if (especially if) one or both partners is trans or queer? Helen, Jay and Dylan have some thoughts and some meet-cute stories.

CW: Death, grief, terrorism
This was a tough one to record. Our co-hosts realized that all three of them have a personal connection to the Sept. 11, 2001 terrorist attacks — Helen was living in New York City, Dylan was in Washington, and Jay was a reporter in Pennsylvania. What are some strong memories of that day? Why does the grief still feel so fresh a quarter-century later? How did we process the trauma?

Here's the third in our series, reflecting on RHPS, Tim Curry, trans representation, and a few other things. 

In this one, we talk about the late, great Dolly Parton ... why her example was important, and why she became such a tremendous icon and ally to queer people. Will we see someone with her talent pass this way again soon?

Meet your hosts — Dylan in Colorado, Helen in Wisconsin and Jay in Pennsylvania. Three very different stories from three different parts of Generation X, but united in their belief that it's time for all trans, gender-queer and non-binary people — and their allies — to stand up and speak out.
