It's just like easier, normal over there. Yes, healthcare is excellent. Healthcare is excellent. It's like Canada. Wouldn't change it. Being trans is like Canada, y'all.
Starting point is 00:02:33 It is. Yeah. I feel very Canadian. Yeah. Even though I'm in my Princess Diana sweater. I think that was your real transition. You were feeling very American, and then you went Canadian. I did.
Starting point is 00:02:42 Yeah. I did. Now I'm going UK, because I'm going to live there all summer. Exactly correct, which we were just talking about. Tell the people what you're doing. I did. Yeah, I did. Now I'm going UK cause I'm going to live there all summer. Exactly. Correct. Which we were just talking about. Tell the people what you're doing. I am doing Edinburgh fringe.

No, I did solo shows in Chicago back in the day, and I've thought about doing another one. But I have such a real, every time I sit down to write one, I've written probably like five solo shows halfway in the last year, and I just can't commit to one. Are they giving Broadway?
Starting point is 00:03:45 No, I don't think they're giving Broadway. I don't know much about Broadway, so it can't commit to one. Are they giving Broadway? No, I don't think they're giving Broadway. I don't know much about Broadway, so it'd be hard to say. What's wrong with you? I know. I knew, I literally knew this would come up because you are,
Starting point is 00:03:53 I mean, you were on Broadway. I am the personification of Broadway. You were, and I don't really do it. I don't do it. What's with that? Well,
Starting point is 00:04:00 I don't like when people turn big emotions into song. Oh. So you can see where the tension starts. Yeah. Yeah. No, I would love to. I just never did theater growing up, so I feel like there was a big disconnect. Is it because you can't sing?
Starting point is 00:04:15 You wish. You can. No, I cannot sing, but I would serviceably sing in a show, for sure. I could sing in a show. I think if you could sing, you would like it a little more. Give me a song. Oh, Annie, Tomorrow. Tomorrow, tomorrow.
Starting point is 00:04:33 You're incredible. Yeah. What the fuck? You felt that? Yeah. Even just there, you could feel. Do you not have a theater agent? I don't.
Starting point is 00:04:42 That's weird. That's weird, and it's a huge problem. Well, I don't know if if it is because i've never done we send them that two bars yeah you're done you think i would that would get me yeah tomorrow oh let's go back to the other key no it was half what about this tomorrow up there tomorrow oh wow you like it down there?

The fact that you would have me play the older trans woman
Starting point is 00:06:30 if I transitioned and not the younger one. That didn't feel nice, did it? No, and it's just that like- That didn't feel nice. We will dye your hair blonde if we have to. Yeah, I want to play the younger trans girl. Yeah, you're Elle Woods. I'm Elle.
Starting point is 00:06:42 I'm Paulette now. You're Paulette. I am your Paulette. Oh my God. That's crazy. My North girl. Yeah, you're Elle Woods. I'm Elle. I'm Paulette now. You're Paulette.

Starting point is 00:07:26 But I want to play a villain. Oh, you like that? I do want to play a villain. That's my worst nightmare. A villain would be so fun for me. I just don't think like, well, actually, now that you're a trans woman, I don't know if you're going to actually want to be playing a villain because we don't like to be villainized. We can't. We don't have that ability right now.
Starting point is 00:07:41 It's too scary. Well, maybe I'll stay cis just to play villain. Yeah. And then you transition. And then I transition. This is your last. Yeah. Yeah. That'd be my redemption arc. Yes. It's too scary. Well, maybe I'll stay cis just to play villain. Yeah, and then you transition. And then I transition. This is your last. Yeah. That would be my redemption arc.
Starting point is 00:07:48 Yes. It's like, he's not so bad. No, he's great. He's not even a he. No. That's, we're wrong. I think the two roles I've been most excited about
Starting point is 00:07:56 that I've gotten really close to, didn't book either of them, were both villainous. Ooh. I got really close to two big villain roles on TV. I want to be the first girl dead in like a like a horror film i can do that because you for me i can write that for you okay that'd be good because hear me out it gives everybody what they want all my followers get
Starting point is 00:08:14 to see me in a movie and everyone who hates me the conservatives get to watch me die yeah i love that that's so beautiful i know i know how to give people what they want you think about everybody well i'm just also just trying to figure out how to navigate a very hateful world, Caleb. And I want to be a little actress in a horror film. I would love to see you in a horror film. I think you're... You're getting Final Girl. Final Girl?
Starting point is 00:08:36 Yeah, like you're the last one. Or the one who dies at the end. No, I think you kill the killer. I kill the killer. Or are you the killer? I'm definitely the killer. I want to be the killer. I want to be evil in something. If anyone out there is casting something evil, I want to play evil. Also, I want to say I think you're the killer i kill the killer or are you the killer i'm definitely the killer i want to be the killer i want to be evil in something if anyone out there is casting something evil
Starting point is 00:08:46 i want to play evil also i want to say i think you're much more i think you're i think you're overall very beloved really yes i think there's a loud minority and they're not these people don't matter they're not real it's so crazy it is crazy but you're getting the brunt of it in a weird way i think you're very beloved i think i need to come with you to Kansas City and I need to make the people. Are they cool there? I have trans friends in Kansas City. Okay. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:09:09 Love. It's tough. I mean, look, we fight legislation battles in places like that. So like overall, is there a hostile state government that we're working on? Yes. But also if we all leave and ignore it, will it get any better? No. Right.
Starting point is 00:09:21 And so I have conflicted feelings because I do. My trans friends do come visit me in Kansas City and they go, go oh what's going on over here with the laws and i go well not all good yet but we're working on it yeah you now being the press secretary is so crazy i want to fix it you're very nuanced i want to make missouri better love it and that's why i'm running for office would you ever i don't know i thought i could for one day. Yeah? What day was it? I was interviewing Joe Biden at the White House. And I was like, oh, this is awesome. I was like, they have cookies in there.
Starting point is 00:09:56 And it was so clean. And I just felt so – he made me feel so special. And then I left and I no longer felt that way. I think what you're describing though is why most people run for office. Instead of, like I don't think most people who run for president are like, oh, I want to change the world. I think they're like, God, the amenities. Top notch. They're crazy.
Starting point is 00:10:17 Better than Google. Yeah. You can put any button on your desk and if you push it, someone will bring you something. Yes. I would put a hot wing button on there. What button would be on your overall office desk? Oh, if I could get anything, grape zevia. What?
Starting point is 00:10:28 You never had a grape zevia? I don't even know what it is. Honey. Grape zevia? Zevia. Zevia? You ever heard of stevia? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:10:36 Put a Z in front of it. The creation meeting. Well, what really throws me is that it's grape soda. Sure. No sugar, no calories, anything like that. I'm out. But it's clear. And so if you're making a purple cow, do you know what that is?
Starting point is 00:10:54 No. It's a grape soda with vanilla ice cream. Okay. It does make you uncomfortable because it's not purple. It's clear. And so it doesn't make you feel the same. But it's really good. I have like four a day. You have four of these a day yes i'm once you said no sugar i
Starting point is 00:11:08 was out really i love no no it tastes sugar i bet baby guy like me you know guy like me would see through that in a heartbeat the guy like me knows what sugar tastes like you could just exchange that with water and then you could drink like a real grape soda after what wait what i wasn't very good at math you're saying are you pitching that i chase water with real grape soda i know i was gonna say chase zevia with grape soda okay yeah you don't like grape soda i do like grape soda i purple cow is something i've never heard of have y'all heard of a purple cow bring it out where are you from san diego the home of the purple cow are they doing purple cow I don't know where I got that from but my family yeah we lived um very far from the beach the farther from the beach you get

Starting point is 00:22:12 go no it's just like a loading dock terrifying do you know what kind of things go down at loading am i one of the bravest people to ever live or am i a total idiot well it's i feel turned on right now i hope that's what the listeners are getting from this the fact that that did that photo of a hallway did not just scare you the fact that you want to jump your bones well get in line honey but that picture it should not be scaring people okay i'm feeling judgmental about you're feeling fear when you see that yeah well because i know what that means you don't know yet but you have to really get deep i have to get i have to get submerged yep yep interesting and what so what's the idea there's monsters in there i think so who knows your worst fear is probably will you tell me
Starting point is 00:22:54 honestly is this like an inside joke no it's real it's like a hundred percent real and people are really good seeing that and going i think so well at least those of us who are silly enough to believe and let me tell you something Dylan you have clocked me to hell and back because I am not silly enough to believe oh you aren't that is what's lacking on this set I don't do silly very often
Starting point is 00:23:20 thank god I'm here there's silliness on the set it's just not coming from me I am so or like i i truly am the most um uh the least sarcastic i i'm so i i believe everything at face value yeah you told me there was a monster there's a monster yeah you told me that you know i should join a cult i'll do it whatever you want yeah i'm opposite really if someone says there's a monster in there i go what are you six
Starting point is 00:23:45 and that's the first person dead in a movie i would get killed in the movie i'd be the person that's like i'm gonna go grab the beers from the haunted garage i want us to do like um like a scary movie reboot you know with like where it's like uh like you know when anna ferris did like scary movie those are the best i love those i those. I miss them. Let's make one. And then there was one, Vampire Suck, which maybe didn't get as much press, but it was like Twilight themed.
Starting point is 00:24:10 Yeah. You into Twilight? I never saw it. Oh. Oh. Cries, falls out of the chair, dies.
Starting point is 00:24:18 I knew there was a reason I didn't want to come on this podcast. Yeah. Yeah. Why? I didn't see it, but I understand. Two very different trans women
Starting point is 00:24:24 sitting at this chair. Two trans women sitting before me. You go watch. Type in ContraPoints Twilight on YouTube. Watch for the two and a half hours. You will know. I think I got the gist of it. Through osmosis, I got the Twilight gist.
Starting point is 00:24:39 There's Team Edward, Team Jacob. People were talking. You didn't read the books? I dated a girl. I dated a girl who was really into twilight and i got her a twilight poster for christmas one year as her boyfriend i said here you go chica you want to make out at kate's lake party or what and we did it was awesome i liked i just really liked kissing and i thought that was heterosexuality
Starting point is 00:25:01 i love kissing kissing is huge and I thought that I was heterosexual. You did? Oh, for sure. Did you not think you were straight ever? No. I was like six, like swimming under the dad's, like different stranger dad's legs
Starting point is 00:25:19 in the swimming pool, like looking at their butts with my eyes open under the chlorine. They were definitely pulling you down the side and being like, hey, Dylan's being weird in the pool again. But then I was like,
Starting point is 00:25:30 am I heterosexual now? Which is crazy to think about. Always complicated. Not fully. Sexuality starts to really fall apart when you get enlightened
Starting point is 00:25:38 about gender. Yeah. Because then it's like, what are we talking about? Exactly. And that's what we're going through with you right now. I would love, I now. I wish.
Starting point is 00:25:46 I wish. I would love to be cooler. I just was listening to the Trixie Mattel pod with the both of you. And I'm like, there seems to be the theme on these pods. What is the theme? That you're trans. Would be cool. I think I could rock a he-they.
Starting point is 00:26:03 I could rock a he-they at some point. Oh, I loved that. That was so fun for like three months. Yeah, he-they. Yeah. Did could rock a he-they. I could rock a he-they at some point. Oh, I loved that. That was so fun for like three months. Yeah, he-they. Yeah. Did you do a he-they? I did a he-they quietly in the bio. Thank you.
Starting point is 00:26:14 And then we did a real hard launch of a they-them on my birthday like two, three years ago. Quietly launching a he or she slash they in the bio is such a move. And you just, you know, right after. after and you go someone might see this someone might i clock it sometimes when i haven't seen a friend in a while and they've been getting more and more experimental with their haircuts i check the bio just to make sure that hasn't popped up and then they often maybe they took their pronouns out yeah when they got that hair and you go well now what the fuck am I supposed to do? No, when the haircut gets too experimental, I go, has a they popped up in the bio or not?
Starting point is 00:26:49 Because I want to start using it. It's a good gauge. Well, that's just how you know. The haircuts start getting a little different and you go, there's a they floating around. You could dye your hair. Me? Yeah. What would you like to see?
Starting point is 00:26:59 Blonde. Now, see, I would get dragged to hell if I went blonde. No, because- People would accuse me of being mentally ill, which I'm not. No, you are, you're obviously doing the legally blonde reboot. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:27:10 And you, you got to commit to the bit. I'll commit to the bit. What is it? Okay. You told me that you told me you'd most want to be pie lady and Sweeney Todd. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:27:18 What is, I just asked the, I guess this earlier. What is, if you could snap your fingers. Okay. Oh, you did it.
Starting point is 00:27:23 We're done. If you could snap your fingers and get all the money in the world, all the support in the world to make a project tomorrow, what would you make? Oh my God. I would make- It can't be the Legally Blonde remake. Okay, deal. I want to do like a trans rom-com that is basically a spoof of like every early 2000s
Starting point is 00:27:39 film where like I have like a Princess Diaries makeover. I've got a wedding. I've got prom i've got like i wanted to be all of them thrown into one and just to really like check the boxes of like because what we didn't get to see like trans girls do in the early 2000s yeah that's what i want oh i think that'd be a lot of fun i know or oh a spy movie oh that those are expensive so i should probably ask for something that costs a little more that's the thing you have to dream big action is expensive it really is what did you already say what you what yours would be mine would be no i didn't um what would mine be all the money
Starting point is 00:28:14 in the world i think i would make something i would just make something psychotic i would basically cast myself as the lead in like a star wars-esque, like huge tentpole, like science fiction film. Really? And you wouldn't be funny in it? No. Ugh. No, I would just go weird. I just feel like,
Starting point is 00:28:31 you know, it's like you've got your moment. You've got to make people laugh once. Once? Yeah. For the first time? Yeah. Make people laugh for once?
Starting point is 00:28:38 For once. For once make them laugh. I just, yeah, I would want to do something so big and crazy with big costumes and world building. Yeah, I love outfits. Something like Dune, but but interesting how is dating apps going for you you're liking it on there actually just this week it totally turned around me too really negative way for me though oh it was started going bad three guys canceled on me funny how you just turned it to the negative

Starting point is 00:34:38 For sure. Yeah. I don't think it would be sexual. I don't think she would take it there. Okay. I think, but I think she would think it would be consensual. Is it okay that that was hurtful? No, no.
Starting point is 00:34:50 No. No. I really think it would be more about the sort of mother-child dynamic of just like a sweet little kiss. Yeah. Yeah. Interesting. I just don't think she would want to ruin that for you. Mona Lisa smile.

Starting point is 00:48:05 sense yeah yeah it's like fun and and they they're they're dressed so fun in it it's a good image it's funny escape yeah yeah who are you who's your favorite actress oh my god you have to pick only one only one yeah only one oh shit fuck i reese witherspoon won't leave my head she's just she Oh, shit. Fuck. Reese Witherspoon won't leave my head. I love Reese. She just makes me feel so safe. You seen Election? Duh.
Starting point is 00:48:32 Duh. Some people haven't. Some people haven't seen Election. And I find myself being surprised by that. And now she's really getting serious. She does a lot of serious acting now. And she's a serious actor to me. I love her. I love her.
Starting point is 00:48:41 I've never not liked her in something. She's so charming. Who's your favorite? Julia Roberts. Oh, there we go. Probably overall. I probably overall i mean i have yeah obviously we all have a bunch but i think julia roberts is the main thing she was my mom she's my mom's favorite actress and so growing up anything julia roberts my mom was like going nuts for i also am in a big sarah jessica parker phase right now because of i'm doing a sex in the city rewatch everyone is everyone is everyone i'm talking everybody just did girls they're like done with that they're on sex in the city now i was ahead i did a sopranos rewatch before everyone started doing
Starting point is 00:49:10 it and a girls rewatch before everyone started doing it i was behind on sex in the city i've just started and everyone's been there for a second i feel i was behind on that but i'm in it now i'm on season like three i think who do you feel like well god this caused a whole this caused a whole drama because i asked my instagram followers recently it went south everyone said i was samantha for the most part really yeah i thought maybe i'd be carrie miranda see that's really hurtful yeah obviously that's hurtful like i miranda and charlotte are such like not i don't want to be them i'm kind of a charlotte do you think you're a charlotte i was i was and as i'm getting more fuckable yeah that's shifting moving from cute to fuckable takes you from charlotte to samantha yeah and there's some carrie actually in that that
Starting point is 00:49:50 pipeline crossover what part narcissist um yes smoker um yeah wow hey yeah um and just um i think a little boy crazy boy crazy yeah carrie is very i mean i know that about her i know that about her cannot stop talking about it but i just feel like you're giving like you're like can't we just talk about something other than relationships like that's you yeah you think i'm like an uptight lesbian you said it not me yeah i know i understand i definitely those votes came in no but like actually there it's a it's a good thing to be a Miranda. She is the most level-headed. She sees things realistically. I think if when I die, people say about me, God, he was level-headed, that will have been a waste of time.
Starting point is 00:50:34 I can't help dying. He was level-headed. No, that's beautiful. You really are such a good singer. That's why we're here. Are you singing in F***ing Cake? Oh, yeah. What is that show about?
Starting point is 00:50:43 Will you tell me more about it? It's sort of like the twink to straight woman pipeline it's um i i feel like what i did throughout my transition was try to strip every piece of myself away that alluded to any of my like gay man stereotypes that i used to lean into and then realizing oh my god no matter what i do these people are it's never going to be enough so i'm just going to like be a woman and a f***. Yeah. And I think that's, it feels so nice to like not have to adhere to whatever people think that my womanhood should be. Totally.
Starting point is 00:51:16 I love that. Yeah. I had a very different version of that, but I felt very like when I, when I came out as gay, I think I stripped away a lot of things about myself that felt like um anything from the closet anything masculine anything like anything that felt acceptable to people where I was from that I would play up to make sure no one thought a lot of crop tops baby I mean I definitely wore like pride merch for a year or two and that was tough but yeah I think I definitely stripped away a bunch of things and then I had another reckoning where I was like actually some of those things are true about me.
Starting point is 00:51:45 Do we think pride merch is now not for gay people? I think it's been not for gay people for a while. Yeah. Yeah. It's definitely for our moms. It's for moms. It's for allies. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:51:56 Pride merch is for allies. Yeah. And gay people who wear pride merch are definitely, I feel, a disconnect from. If you're earnestly wearing an HRC shirt, I'm like, I love you. I support you, but I don't feel connected.
Starting point is 00:52:10 Yeah. But that's, that could be your audience. It definitely, some of them are out there for sure. And they're listening. I love your shirt. I love your shirt.
Starting point is 00:52:18 But that's another thing is it depends on where you do it. I think if you, I've said this before, if you have an RBG tote in Brooklyn, it's a little chuggy. If you have an RBG tote in Memphis, it's different because the climate is different. You know what I'm saying? Like things are just, I think there's just.
Starting point is 00:52:32 Geographical. Yeah. I think I get to be on the coast. I get to be like a jaded, disaffected liberal. And then when I'm back in Kansas city, I'm a little more like, I'm a more. Target pride collection. Exactly. Correct.
Starting point is 00:52:43 And I think it's completely acceptable because I think it's different. It's needed. You know? Yeah. You need... Target pride collection. Exactly correct. And I think it's completely acceptable because I think it's needed. Yeah. You need the Target pride collection. In Missouri, the Target pride collection is needed. That is your version of activism. Yeah. That's the extent of my activism as well.
Starting point is 00:52:55 That's all I'm doing. T-shirts. That feels like enough to me. Just T-shirts. You're showing up. Kale Perrin, how to be an activist, just T-shirts.
Starting point is 00:53:03 Activist T-shirts are kind of cute. I don't wear a lot of t-shirts. You don't. That's because you're high glam. I actually, I came a little more casual for you today. Thank you. Thank you for knowing that. Thank you.
Starting point is 00:53:12 That I would want that. Because I really, I love a casual moment. Yeah. Do you like being in, do you like, you like. I love full glam. Yeah, you love full glam. Oh my God. You're like comfortable in it or you're uncomfortable but you don't mind?
Starting point is 00:53:23 Oh no, I feel way more comfortable in that than this. Really? Yes. Because if I, if I look good, everything's going to be okay. Yeah. That's how I feel. That's really interesting. You don't like to wear tuxes?
Starting point is 00:53:36 God, no. Okay. I don't like dressing up. I do acknowledge that I look when I really like when I shave and so hot, I look not. Yeah. Okay. I know. I admit that I look handsome, but I don't enjoy it.
Starting point is 00:53:45 I'm never excited to put on a suit. Oh, my God. I'm always a little like for real. Really? Yeah. Get me in a dress. But you're even even in a comfy look. You're doing like big glam.
Starting point is 00:53:54 Like you're doing earrings and makeup and nails done and you're accessorizing it. Soft. You like it. I love. It's my favorite. I do think there will be a period of time where I enter like a really hot butch sort of you know yummy androgynous thing but that's like three years away what is that gonna look like do you think um slicked back hair oh probably short like really short hair yeah maybe a little like eyebrow piercing um maybe like like maybe i'll probably by then i'll have gotten fake
Starting point is 00:54:23 tits and then we'll probably get top surgery again to then get them taken out. Yeah. And I'm just like taping down. Um, and you know, maybe like some wide legged jeans could do me some good. Yeah. You know what I mean? I see you in wide legged jeans. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:54:38 I see that for you for sure. I can't wait. Is that butch though? Wide legged jeans? Some could say. Yeah. For me? Very.
Starting point is 00:54:44 Depends. Yeah. Maybe like a carpenter. What would your idea of me as butch be? You as butch though? Wide leg jeans? Some could say. For me, very. Depends. Yeah. Maybe like a carpenter. What would your idea of me as butch be? You as butch? Yeah. Oh God. I'd love to see you in like a business suit.
Starting point is 00:54:55 You as butch. I don't know. What is butch? I mean, when I think of butch, I think of like a denim vest. Oh. Like a flat top haircut. What else is butch to me cargo pants yeah a nice work boot timberlands i think of like leah delaria wow that's butch to me yeah i mean she's the og
Starting point is 00:55:14 but like these are the she's the butch blueprint right she's the butch brand and then i think i'll end with like a diane keaton sort of aesthetic god coastal grandmother largeal, grandmother, large sun hat. Yeah. Pinstripe tee, yeah. She's really nailed a vibe. She's really created a niche that is like, that's the Diane Keaton look. Yeah, we're not going to go after her today. I'm so glad that Diane Keaton is our common ground. Oh, I love Diane Keaton.
Starting point is 00:55:37 Oh, thank God. I couldn't handle it. First Wives Club? Are you kidding me? You don't know. Why am I singing every single one reference? You can't help yourself. Can't stop.
Starting point is 00:55:44 You can't help yourself. Well,'t stop. You can't help yourself. Well, that is the big thing from that movie, though. She's so sweet. She's so good. I love Diane Keaton. And someone joked the other day on some – I saw something online about some movie poster with her, and they were like, does she write into her contracts
Starting point is 00:55:57 that she has to wear her personal wardrobe and everything? Because she does her big look in everything now. She probably does – I feel like she styles most of it. Probably. And she looks amazing. She should. I get so nervous that if and when I'm on a TV show that I'm not going to be in cute clothing.
Starting point is 00:56:12 My biggest fear. Oh, well, I've lived that nightmare. Oh, have you? Oh, God. Every TV show I've been on, they put me. The last TV thing I did, they put me in a polo and a leather jacket. Neither of them fit. A polo and a leather jacket neither of them fit a polo and a leather jacket yes and they had me driving a suburban it was for uh killing it season two and they thank
Starting point is 00:56:33 you guys for having me i loved being on but it i do i will say when they put the clothes on me i was like wow i would kill to be in anything other than this it was a really tough look it was tough you didn't take it home no no i don't think they would have appreciated that but i do it's not it's not always their fault i will say there's just not a ton of like very fashionable stuff for big guys so a lot of brands my favorite brands that i can actually wear um my favorite brands that i can actually wear i mean john there's a brand called johnny big out of canada that's like men's big and tall like suits and dress shirts and stuff you should do a pride campaign with them.
Starting point is 00:57:06 Johnny Big pride campaign. Hit me up, y'all. I'll do it. I'll do it. And then say it says, I will only wear this in Kansas City. Yeah. Or in the mid... Yeah.
Starting point is 00:57:14 Will not wear this in LA. Honestly, what do you... I think if there's one brand that I could get to make stuff in my size, it would probably be LaVey. Oh. I love their men's stuff.

They'll figure their shit out and they'll come back with smiles on their faces. How often should they get to be on the jet ski? Once a quarter? It's like, honestly, it tides you over for about four years. Really? And then you get the itch.
