Together, we research and break down complex, and even controversial, topics facing our society. Our goal isn’t to convince you to see things our way. We want to build a foundational understanding of these complicated topics so that we can address them together. We talk about some pretty heavy stuff on this show, and we tackle topics that might feel polarizing. But we do that because we have an important goal in mind: We want to change the way people have hard conversations. And, we think we can do that using research and discussion to create common understanding. And, since you’re here, we hope you want the same thing. So we suggest getting comfortable, and maybe having a good drink on hand as we work through this stuff. Welcome to our fireside.

**Content warning: This episode contains discussion of Transgender issues, and of violence against Transgender people. Also, the interview in this episode has been edited for clarity.**
When we say you may want to have a drink on hand for some of our episodes, we’re specifically talking about episodes like this one. This, specifically, is a dry red wine episode. The topic is deep, and we’re going to ask you to get introspective and honest with yourself. And, well, that’s what a red wine is good for.
Today, we are honored to welcome a guest to the show. Her name is Andy, and she is the president of PFLAG in Springfield, MO. Our hope is that she can share with all of us both the heaviness and the joy that is part of the transgender experience.
No shownotes this week because it's all interview, but if you'd like to learn more about PFLAG you can do that here:
And, we'll be sharing some great info from Andy on our social media accounts this week. Find us by searching Fireside Breakdowns.
