55. Trans People Get a Happy Ending! The Gayly Prophet reads "Trans Wizard Harriet Porber" by Chuck Tingle Jul 27, 2020

Show notes

In this very special edition of The Gayly Prophet, we read Chuck Tingle’s amazing, validating, beautiful, scathing Harry Potter satire, “Trans Wizard Harriet Porber and the Bad Boy Parasaurolophus.” Like the book, this episode is exactly what you need, exactly when you need it. CW for lots and lots of sex talk. Things we reference that you might want to know more about: Rodeoh.com/collections/ftm-gear has a truly wonderful array of gear for trans men and trans masculine folks. The double ended realistic prosthetic can be found at tantusinc.com/products/realstrapless (heads up, it only comes in one skin tone which is honestly unforgivable.) … Podcast that ripped apart a Robert Galbraith novel: I Don’t Even Own a Television … Some comic books with trans characters that Lark reads: Lumberjanes Saga Rat Queens The Witch Boy (not technically trans but very gender defiant and lovely) The Wicked and the Divine Shutter … Check out EsGAYpe From Reality, our new podcast about Carry On by Rainbow Rowell!
