In this first of two episodes, Julie chats with Savannah about the profound "first time" that one sees their true femme self in the mirror... that first fateful time when the reflection in the mirror stops being just a biological male and starts being the more authentic and grounded female spirit. Julie and Savannah read listener letters and comment about how often there are commonalities to the catalysts to discovering ones femme essence and yet how individualized every experience truly is. -----SAVANNAH HAUK is the author of “Living with Crossdressing: Defining a New Normal” and “Living with Crossdressing: Discovering your True Identity“. While both focus on the male-to-female (mtf) crossdresser, “Defining a New Normal” delves into crossdressing and relationships and “Discovering Your True Identity” looks at the individual crossdressing journey.

Look Dev Is Not Color Grading with the HAL Pictures Team

Look development and color grading share tools, but they are not the same job. We sit down with the Hal Pictures team — Martin Roux, Olivier Patron, Paul Morin, and Antoine Mayette — to dig into how a group of French DOPs, a DIT, and a director built the tools they couldn't find anywhere else: Diachromie and Diaphanie.The conversation starts where the frustration did. Post houses in France lacked proper look development infrastructure, and what existed elsewhere was either inaccessible or wrong for their workflow. So they built their own, rooted in a principle that any image can be decomposed into three parts: contrast, color tone curves, and color volume. Understand those, and you can describe a look. If you can describe it, you can build it.We break down Diachromie's approach to shaping the color volume parametrically inside a color-managed pipeline, and Diaphanie's frequency separation engine for texture — MTF, halation, bloom, and grain as independent, composable layers. The team explains why they separated color from texture, why that opens up aesthetics beyond film emulation, and why algorithm-based tools and sample-based tools are different propositions — not better or worse, just different.There's also a practical conversation about the limits of OpenFX, running multiple plugin instances to work around fixed order-of-operations, and how the preset system carries look development knowledge from project to project.These are practitioners who built for their own needs, then released it. That lineage shows in every design decision.Subscribe, share with a fellow color nerd, and leave a review.

Discussion focuses on: Implementation planning Early operational challenges Payment and data flow issues Lessons learned from initial rollout Guest: Dr. Jennifer Tussey, Senior Specialty Pharmacy Manager at BJC Health.   00:14 — Key Program Definitions Medicare Drug Price Negotiation Program (MDPNP): Created under the Inflation Reduction Act (2022) Allows CMS to negotiate prices for select high-cost drugs without generic/biosimilar competition Establishes a Maximum Fair Price (MFP) Medicare Transaction Facilitator (MTF): Operational system supporting: Data exchange Payment processing Coordination between CMS, manufacturers, and dispensers Ensures Part D beneficiaries receive negotiated pricing   02:00 — Health System Context Jennifer oversees specialty, oncology, and mail-order pharmacy operations within BJC Health's east region. Approximately 12 pharmacies impacted by MTF processes.   02:27 — Implementation Strategy Initial steps: Participation in CMS webinars Formation of a multidisciplinary team Key roles involved: Pharmacy leadership Data analyst Business manager Reconciliation technician Revenue cycle team Responsibilities include: Tracking claims and payment status Managing 340B eligibility Reconciling payments across multiple systems (MTF, Beacon, internal systems)   03:54 — Enrollment Experience Enrollment process was relatively straightforward: Entity signatures System setup for remittance processing Complexity increased post-enrollment due to: Data fragmentation across systems Limited access for revenue cycle teams Required strong coordination across departments.   05:09 — Data & Payment Flow Challenges Data flow remains slow but improving. Current timeline: ~19 days for payment finalization Up to 45 days for resolution if inquiries are required Early collection rates: Initially ~10% Improved to ~60%   05:09 — Operational Workflow Adjustments Monitoring cadence evolved: From daily tracking → now biweekly review cycles Teams review claims approximately 45 days in arrears.   06:02 — Inquiry & Tracking Challenges System limitations: Inquiry submissions may not be saved reliably Lack of built-in tracking tools Requires manual documentation and tracking to monitor claim status and follow-ups.   06:18 — Managing Payment Inconsistencies Payment discrepancies handled through inquiry process. Key challenges: Delayed initiation (must wait for processing window) Extended resolution timelines (up to 45 days) Requires proactive and continuous follow-up.   06:53 — Financial & Resource Challenges Low reimbursement margins under standard refund amounts. Even large systems with wholesale discounts experience tight margins. Significant FTE investment required to manage the process. Smaller systems may face: Greater operational burden Limited staffing capacity   07:33 — Operational Evolution Processes are continuously evolving. Key success factors: Ongoing process refinement Strong internal documentation Rapid incorporation of lessons learned Example: Identifying system issues with inquiry tracking and adjusting workflows accordingly   08:14 — Key Advice: Patience & Persistence Success requires: Patience with slow-moving processes Meticulous follow-up Strong tracking systems (e.g., Excel-based workflows) High claim volume (500+ scripts at a time) necessitates structured tracking tools.   09:07 — Additional Financial Considerations Low net margins combined with high operational workload. Challenges amplified for: Smaller pharmacies Systems with fewer resources Emphasizes importance of operational efficiency and resource planning.   09:36 — Final Takeaways MTF implementation is: Complex Resource-intensive Still evolving Key themes: Strong cross-functional collaboration is essential Processes will require ongoing refinement Financial sustainability remains a concern   09:46 — Closing Carolyn thanks Jennifer for sharing insights and real-world experience.

So many crossdressing men hide in the shadows, revert to closeting their feminine behavior after sharing their queerdom to their partners. When partners are told, so many emotions are felt and so much understanding and support is needed for both parties. What happens when the novelty wears off? What happens when the man chooses to be smaller than they should be to avoid conflict and keep everyone comfortable? How does each partner maintain the validity of their emotions while not taking agency away from each other?

From Netflix's 'Wayward' to 'K-Pop Demon Hunters', to Amazon Prime's 'Gen V', Savannah and Julie talk about how evolved 'queer-coded' storytelling has become over the years. From a transman being a character in a story where their gender identification has nothing to do with the series, to taking a superhero trait of gender-swapping as having issues and problems far outside the scope of gender identity, to a trio of demon-fighting pop star hunters with struggles of being authentic completely outside the scope of queerdom, we are discovering that modern storytelling doesn't have to hit us over the head with "here is a queer subplot I want you to focus on" in order to be successful and poignant.-----SAVANNAH HAUK is the author of “Living with Crossdressing: Defining a New Normal” and “Living with Crossdressing: Discovering your True Identity“.

His skill lies in the understanding of natural systems and the principles behind their source, patterns, and creation. The people, projects, and education he supports, have the opportunity to radically and positively transform the human experience. David has sold and implemented biologics into the Australian market working with MTF (the world's largest tissue bank) to introduce Allopatch HD, a non-irradiated acellular human dermis which has been documented to improve surgical success rates from 40% to 85.7% from a study of 10,000 cases. This is opening up a new surgical arena and in many cases avoiding the current solution, (which is very painful and restrictive) of total shoulder arthroplasty.
