we don't find out WHY Rudi wanted to 'look like that', as a person born with a female body, who's had to fight hard for the right to be heard, be equal, be respected, to have equal pay, to not be obliterated from history, literature, science & law, & is now watching her sexuality being colonised, just why does Rudi want to be female?
Just felt that this episode lacked the quality of most others I've heard. the voices seemed insincere.
this isn't the ' James gets sober' episode
this was about a family fleeing war
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
This story is too close to home. Everything is carbon-copy for my relationship with alcohol and my sister's efforts to help me.
Such a beautiful story. It brought me close to tears. So grateful for people like Jaleh.
These ladies are full of shit. They didn't find paleface. They even kept putting photos up asking if it was him and all were not. Sad podcast in the end that this is what yr lowered yrself to. And paleface and his mob were never skinny! The interview is just topical of Sydney. No idea!
