This week, our beleaguered hosts Alyx, Ashleigh and Flint look with a critical eye over:

• Some welcome good news from Montana, USA.
• A brief look at who else but the EHRC.
• A certain US pick-me on the cusp of realising that her collaboration will not save her.
• Quickly checking in with the people absolutely having a normal one over at Sex Matters.
• Lining up a Telegraph article for a roast.
• As the title suggests, for our Meat this time we're taking a dip in the waters of Stonewall bay, after their announcement of their upcoming new Chair, Kezia Dugdale and the extremely questionable remarks Dugdale made about a certain author of derivative wizard fiction.

This week, the delightful duo of Ashleigh and Flint take you through:

• Ashleigh the Solarpunk fills you in on thrilling tales of her adventures and a content warning is given, because it's just that sort of "adventure."
• A triple-decked Pond Hoppin' segment that ends with some uncharacteristically good news. I know! We were surprised too.
• The NHS has published a new service specification for Children and Young People's (CYP) gender services. We assess the damage.
• A foray to the high street as Sex Matters (attempt to) take on M&S!
• Some quick notes about our staffing levels after PinkNews made all their reporters redundant. Also, we talk about how PinkNews made all their reporters redundant.
• It's been a year since the Supreme Court judgement. Yes, that one. We look back and reflect on what's changed and what it feels like has changed, even though it really hasn't.
• Our usual smattering of Trans Joy as a palate-cleanser.
