A River Runs Through Them (with River Butcher!)
Episode description
The boys try to avoid assuming gender or pronouns for a week.
Frustrated by the rising vilification of queer and transgender people—and hoping to rewire his own linguistic tendencies—Adam challenges Ben and Andrew to go a week without gendering anyone. Andrew raises the stakes by creating a "gender jar" that collects $2 for every mistake, to be donated to Trans Lifeline. And our good friend River Butcher joins to help guide we cis three through the challenge! What transpires is one of the more eye-opening and honest conversations we've ever had on the pod.
Featuring standup comedy clips from River's half-hour Comedy Central special, A Different Kind of Dude, which is streaming for free on YouTube!
