This week, Emily, a woman, and Perry, a man, wade into the complicated world of hormone replacement therapy, the first of a two-part series on exogenous hormones and the sexes who love them.

Plus: a new type of diabetes, a normie CDC director nominee, and the groovy (?) reclassification of psychedelics.
