Happy Halloween! Celebrate the spooky season with the TL crew as we share all our Halloween favorites! From candy & costumes, to movies and memories from Halloween’s past. Keep your ears peeled for: what candy makes Alyx flip off Lisa, a killer car named Christine & why we’re setting up a tinder account for Linsey. Cheers!

Howdy Cowpokes!  Thanks for coming out to support us at The yART Sale, hosted by Audrey at Hey Be Fab. We had a great time talking to many different patrons and artists at the yART sale, chatting about art and our favorite Halloween traditions. We hope you enjoy listening to the voices of Ogden’s artists and supporters. Cheers to tiny Shasta!

GOOD NEWS/BAD NEWS! We are taking a little hiatus from recording, but don't worry, we're still working hard. In this mini-sode we give MANY thanks to Rowley Farmhouse Ales! Come say hi to us at the yART Sale on 10/2 if you live in Northern Utah, or say hi to us on IG @toastedlavenderpodcast. We'll be back on 10/18 with a fresh new episode!

In this episode, we follow Kye as he traces the path of WPATH, which is the World Professional Association for Transgender Health. In episode 9 (Compton Cafe Riot) we briefly talked about WPATH and now we’re taking a closer look. Join us to learn about Magnus Hirschfield, Harry Benjamin, and a leopard named Henry. You read that right, a leopard. Cheers!

Listen to your hosts break down the trans themes in the most popular movie of 1999 - The Matrix! Lessons learned: friends don't deadname friends, internet access is vital for trans folks, and take any pill offered to you by strangers(?!). We had a great time re-watching this classic millennial film and discussing the subtle queer vibes and iconic trans directors, the Wachowski sisters. Content warning: we mention sexual assault around 48:00-50:00. Cheers!

Join us while we discuss the first queer riot of the 20th century, and no it wasn’t Stonewall.  Alyx gets heated about pancakes and Tucker Carlson’s horrible father.  We spend way too much time trying to figure out why gender markers are required on birth certificates. Find out who Lisa has a crush on this week!  Enjoy!

During this episode, Lisa divulges all the queer secrets of Disney. Find out which Disney characters might be queer coded and learn queer friendly tips for visiting Disney properties. We discuss our relationships with lifeguards, Simba’s gay dads, and Eartha Kitt.  All this and more for a lighthearted episode of Toasted Lavender! Cheers!

Please enjoy our second installment of Queer TV Club. SPOILER ALERT! Mae Martin stars in this semi-autobiographical Netflix series. Learn about how each host identified with Feel Good’s story, and find out who has a giant crush on Mae Martin. An unexpected common thread between episode 1 & 2 of Queer TV club - Ritu Arya - plays Lava in Feel Good, and we love her. Digressions include tiny DaBaby wearing a diaper.

Welcome to episode one of our Queer TV Club. SPOILERS AHEAD! This episode we are diving into The Umbrella Academy, and especially Elliot Page. Digressions include why its seemingly more acceptable for cisgender actors to play transgender characters rather than trans actors. Also, we explore an interesting connection between Scarlett Johansson and the transgender gangster Dante "Tex" Gill. Stay tuned for part 2 of Queer TV Club! 

Have you ever wondered what a word or phrase means to the queer community? Listen to our hosts as they get a crash course in queer slang in the first episode of our pop quiz series.
