  • Summary

  • Schuyler Bailar was the first transgender athlete to compete on an NCAA Division 1 men's team. As a renowned speaker, author, and thought leader, Schuyler's work includes answering questions from all sorts of people relating to gender, current events, mental health, civil-rights issues, and so much more. But there are always questions left unanswered -- until now. On "Dear Schuyler", the award-winning activist answers questions he receives from followers, allies, and anyone who wants to learn more about how our ideas of gender shape our lives. To help inform those answers, Schuyler speaks to guests whose wisdom and experiences are directly impacted by those questions -- people like like NCAA champion swimmer Lia Thomas, ACLU lawyer Chase Strangio, Olympian Megan Rapino and others. These are the culture movers, the experts, and the real people who tell their stories, teach their lessons, and help us all recognize how they're shaping today's society and culture. If you have a question for Schuyler, send him a voice memo on his Instagram @pinkmantaray, or go to DearSchuyler.com. We need to understand each other better and whether you define yourself as straight, cis, gay, trans, non-binary, bisexual, asexual, or something else, this is the podcast we all need in today's changing world. "Dear Schuyler" humanizes the conversation.

    Isolation often allows hate to endure, making it crucial to break through such barriers. However, for trans people, recounting one's journey can be a complex experience.

    That is why Schuyler invited Ryan Cassata on to the show. Together, they explore Ryan's discussions about his gender journey on shows like Larry King Live and The Tyra Banks Show, and his approach to sharing his life story through music.
