The Trans Allegory of Silo s1, part 1 Tilly's Trans Tuesdays

    • Personal Journals

This year I was absolutely STUNNED by Silo on AppleTV+. Not only is it a fantastic show, it's got a fabulous trans allegory that has a whole lot to say, so we're going to discuss the ENTIRE SEASON! This will be a NINE PART series, and spoilers abound! If you haven't seen the show yet and don't want to be spoiled, watch it before listening! In this episode, we discuss the world, the symbolism, the characters, and then delve into the first half of the pilot episode! Wife, mother, geek, corporate queer, and cat herder Samantha Cuddy joins us to discuss how seeing (and feeling like) yourself for the first time makes you a better person! Oh, and cats don't go to first grade.
