Our next show spotlights The Intermediaries: A Weimar Story, the latest book from author, historian and podcast producer, Brandy Schillace. The Intermediaries is "the fascinating history of a daring team of sexologists who built the first trans clinic in the shadow of the Third Reich."
Along with the author herself, we have songwriters from NYC, Brooklyn, Atlanta, Seattle and Kansas City; and one mixologist from Lower East Side craft bar, Good Guys all coming together to share their new music (and cocktail) inspired by "the forgotten story of the Institute for Sexual Science, the world’s first center for homosexual and transgender rights. Headed by a gay Jewish man, Dr. Magnus Hirschfeld, the institute aided in the first gender-affirming surgeries and hormone treatments, acting as a rebellious base of operations in the face of rising prejudice, nationalism, and Nazi propaganda."
