If you like science, sports, and smart critiques of gender, Rose Eveleth has a new podcast called Tested from CBC/NPR about the weird/horrifying practice of testing female athletes for "femaleness" -- and what happens when a group of runners are deemed "not female" and disqualified from participating in the Olympics and other competitions. These are not trans women -- they are AFAB but don't fit arbitrary norms. The pod is wild, fascinating, & heartbreaking.
