    Interview: Meet 'Nathan Burgoine
    Aug 22 2022
    On this episode I spend some time chatting with queer Canadian author, 'Nathan Burgoine. We talk about what it was like for 'Nathan growing up, first kisses, coming out versus being outed, what it's like to be a "curb queer", his books and whether or not Canada really is better for LGBTQIA+ folks than the U.S.

    To learn more about 'Nathan and his books, https://apostrophen.wordpress.com ( check out his website.)

  • Crime: Remembering Sage Smith and Rita Hester

    Crime: Remembering Sage Smith and Rita Hester
    Aug 15 2022
    On this episode I repurpose a couple of cases that Erin Stallings and I covered on our True Crime and Unsolved Mysteries podcast, "Six Degrees of WTF" - specifically crimes against trans individuals.

    We start with Erin's coverage of the disappearance of Sage Smith and then close things out with the unsolved murder of Rita Hester which prompted the Transgender Day of Remembrance.

  • Interview: Meet Elizabeth Seabolt-Esparza

    Interview: Meet Elizabeth Seabolt-Esparza
    Aug 1 2022
    On this episode I speak with Elizabeth Seabolt-Esparza, a mental health therapist in Texas. I met Elizabeth in 2004 when I directed her in a production of Extremities. Thanks to the power of social media, we recently reconnected and I immediately invited her to come on the show.

    Elizabeth has a special story to share: Her father was gay, and she watched him struggle in life which is partly what led to her desire to become a therapist

    If you are part of the LGBTQIA+ community and live in Texas, and would like to speak with a therapist, Elizabeth is accepting new clients. https://www.houston-therapy.com/elizabeth-seabolt-esparza (You can find her here.)

  • History: Alan Turing

    History: Alan Turing
    Jul 25 2022
    I'm back with another history lesson, and today I devote the entire episode to Alan Turing. His brilliant mind helped outsmart the Nazis during World War II and his developments in computer science paved the way for every electronic device that we use today. Sadly, Alan's life took a devastating turn when he was publicly outed and persecuted for being gay.
