ALLT S02E11 - Shadow-banned Healthcare & Representation from Cradle to Grave

Just days out of surgery Lenny still shows up to tape an episode with Mardi for you all. Naturally the conversation veers into the daunting, almost 100 years of navigating, healthcare between us. The last 15 minutes Mardi, who is very disheartened, goes off, like really off, about young Trans creators who are not walking their talk in supporting trans elders and how being shadow banned from social media apps feels one in the same. (I think Mardi could use some cyber hugs folks) They also give a couple hot takes on some current hot topics.
