About Other Conversations project

These are my interviews with transgender, intersex, agendered, nonbinary people, and their family members in the US and Canada from Spring 2022 to Summer 2024. I've also included some radio interviews and PSAs which were recorded for my public affairs show on KWRK-LP independent radio in Fairbanks Alaska in 2023.

   Part 2 of 2. Interview with trans men who are ranchers (Other Conversations, 2023)

   Part 2 of 2. Interview with trans men who are ranchers (Other Conversations, 2023). Other Conversations is an independent, informal oral history project by Shane Brodie, a multi-issue activist and sculptor. This project was on hiatus in Fall 2023, but I will be interviewing people again starting in April 2024. If you are interested in being interviewed sometime in the future, please email me at shbrodie1@gmail.com and we can talk about that privately. I've interviewed transgender, nonbinary, gender non-conformist, agendered, neutrois, and intersex people (and allies and parents) who are anarchist, independent, conservative, egalitarian, progressive, free speech and gun rights enthusiasts, rural, urban, suburban, Christian, Pagan, Jewish, Mormon (LDS), atheist, disabled, neurodivergent, voluntaryist, mutualist, apolitical, skeptical, constitutionalist, classic liberal, libertarian, small political party members, Leftist, socialist, DSA, communist, radical, revolutionary, anarcho-communist (an-com), anarcho-capitalist (an-cap), or have a mixture of right/left views etc. If you've found these interviews interesting, please "like" and share them. If you are interested in starting your own interview project, you are welcome to contact me if you think my experience might be useful to you and you want some advice.
