E127 - Like Watching Jeans Dry

WE HAVE A NEW INSIDE JOKE WITH THE FANS ;)

...Which Val introduces early, then goes on to discuss a myriad of topics including *more CharacterGis*; a miscommunication with a nail salon worker; a couple *big announcements*; trying not to reading the comments; being approved for gender affirming breast augmentation; *another rant* about the bystander effect, and fight/flight/freeze responses; *another rant* about closted admirers/chasers of trans women; her take on the first two episodes of Netflix's "Baby Reindeer"; reflections on her own weakness for validation; and some funny observations on 'if people behaved in video games like thei did in real life'.

So much to talk about! Don't forget to tune in to 800 Pound Gorilla's YouTube channel June 30th for Al Val's debut special "So Brave"! Woo!!
