ABOUT GIRLISH
Girlish is a podcast hosted by trans women and best friends Gage Adkins and Olivia Noel. The two discuss LGBTQ+ and pop culture topics through their own unique experiences. As women of color in their twenties, they strive to create an entertaining and educational show. The show gained popularity and has been featured on both Spotify and Apple Podcasts' home page. They aim to create a tool to bridge a gap that may be needed for those who are educating themselves about trans issues but also for those who are trans and need a space for them.
