Dr. Sara Chatfield joins John and Seth for a discussion of her research on the politics of bathroom access. It ends up being a rich conversation about the inclusion and exclusion of trans Americans from aspects of society, why the Trump campaign pushed so hard on this issue last year, and what Democrats could or should be saying in response. There’s also conversation about wedding cakes, one-bowl recipes, and Passover cookies.
