In this episode of Cubs Out Loud, the guys are joined by BuilTABear, another trans listener who, after hearing COL514, shared his feedback and brought some perspective that may not have been touched on at that time 4 years ago. The cubs revisit the topic of trans identity and the bear community while also getting to learn more about BuilTABear’s upcoming projects regarding the older trans community.
Show Topic
Trans Bear Listener 2
In the summer of 2019, we did an interview with listener Trans Bear, or T-bear, to discuss previous episodes where we here and there touched on transness in the broader bear community. In 15 years of the podcast, our understanding of being trans has evolved. True to our nature, we’re excited to come back to this topic with another listener that reached out to us with feedback on episode COL514 from almost 4 years ago amongst others. Thank you BuilTABear for joining us!

What has your experience been so far with self-image, coming out to family, friends, co-workers?

Congrats to previous guest Paul Lanner on the success of this month’s HAH The Event.com!
From the HAH FB post on July 11, 2022: The amazing speech given by the Tommy Clancy, HAH haunter of the year. “I am honored to be the recipient of the Haunters Against Hate haunter of the year award. From a young age I have been very passionate about Halloween. Without my incredibly supportive parents it wouldn’t have been possible for me to get involved with the haunt industry. My family and I put on a home haunt every year starting when I was 8 years old. After a few seasons my Mom and I traveled to Columbus for the Midwest Haunters Convention. I walked into the convention center with the biggest smile on my face, I felt at home; I was surrounded with what I love. A few years back I met Paul and was instantly made to feel welcome and loved. I am so thankful to have met him, the incredibly kind man that he is. He asked me to be in volume one of the Haunters Against Hate books and I very excitedly accepted, with my home haunt character. Eventually I grew out of wanting to put on the home haunt, I wanted more. I am appreciative of Jenny Braverman for gracefully introducing my family to the Zombie Army Productions team. The next season I started scaring at HellsGate Haunted House. I’m very lucky and grateful to now be a part of the Zombie Army, the most loving and rowdy group I could ever ask for. Zombie Army has taught me to be proud of who I am, something easier said than done. I have always preached acceptance of everyone, but at the same time have struggled with acceptance of myself. I am currently recovering from Anorexia, a disease stemmed in hate and unacceptance. I didn’t even know if I would be able to attend this ceremony because I was away from home for 2 months due to my treatment program. I used attending Haunters Against Hate the event as motivation. I was struggling to see the light at the end of the tunnel for so long, but that’s just what Haunters Against Hate is for me. That light at the end of the long fucking tunnel. I was able to muster all my might and get through it. I owe it to Paul and the love of my family. Thank you for this honor Paul and for the work you do for our community.”
