In this bonus episode of Out To Get You, we fold space and time for Transgender Day of Visibility in order to rerelease our 2023 pre-launch collaboration with the Anatomy of a Scream Podcast Network as we take on Good for Her Horror and Brian Michael Elmore's Bit.

This episode contains discussions of rape and sexual violence, drug abuse, kidnapping, suicidality, homophobia, transphobia, referring to vampire clans as covens, and other themes that may be sensitive for listeners.

This episode was recorded on January 10th, 2023, which seems like a world away for the trans people in your lives. Since that day, 44 more trans people have been murdered simply for the crime of existing. This year is already proving heartbreaking and fatal for our community. While this podcast is for entertainment, it is impossible to completely decouple ourselves from the campaigns of violence we face, in the streets we live and in the legislatures which paint us as unfit and as threats to society, as well as the resulting anguish and rage they continue to produce. We ask that you consider your emotional and mental health before engaging with this episode. [Originally posted Mar 13, 2023 on the Anatomy of a Scream podcast network. The situation has since continued to deterioriate.]

In this episode, we explore the intoxicating nature of power through the lens of minority representation, fascist dehumanization, and corrupting influences, in this blood-soaked trans teen horror-comedy starring Nicole Maines, Diana Hopper, Zolee Griggs, and more.
