I was just listening to an episode of The Gist where Mike is interviewing the host of a podcast called Hysterical focusing on episodes of well…hysteria in various populations.

I thought it was HILARIOUS when Mike asked the Hysterical host (Dan Taberski) if he had wanted to explore possible parallels with transgenderism and (I am paraphrasing) his response was like “Hard No”. I mean maybe I should he upset that he uses a pretty dismissive tone when the parallels are clear…but I just had to chuckle

Relevance to the pod: previous discussions of social contagion like satanic panic, tics, etc.and possible parallels to the trans debate, on the gist podcast which Katie has plugged
