We are all wrong sometimes. What matters is what we say next. Most of us reach for one of two reflexes: we defend ourselves, or we fall all over ourselves apologizing. Both turn the moment into something about us...

Episode #3
When his daughter came out, Joe suggested she dress at home and go back to being someone else the moment she stepped outside. He thought he was keeping her safe. Years later, researchers have put numbers to what those...
Episode #2
You have probably felt the pull in both directions. Seeing a queer character on screen for the first time can change what a young person believes is possible for their own life. Watching that same character get written...

What does it actually feel like to be so afraid of coming out as LGBTQ+ that dying starts to look like the reasonable option? Rya lived it. These are her real journal entries from 2014, read aloud for the first time...
Episode #52
It is possible to get everything wrong in a perfectly calm voice. Is it true that transgender people had the culture on their side until they pushed too far? Father and daughter, Joe and Rya answer the points one at a...
Episode #51
Most people know the name Stonewall. Almost nobody knows what happened three years earlier in a San Francisco cafeteria. In 1966 the word transgender did not exist yet. Joe and Rya follow the trail from a church...
Episode #50
Most parents call the school after something has already gone wrong. By then you are negotiating from behind. The teacher who could have been your ally has already built their own explanation for your kid, and nobody...
Episode #49
Somebody was probably nervous to send you this link. Nothing here asks you to change your mind. This episode is a conversation between an LGBTQ child and her father, talking about how to stay close to someone you are...

Episode #47
When someone you love disagrees with you about LGBTQ issues, faith, or politics, there is a better way through than fighting. It starts with knowing the difference between a person seeking understanding and a person...
Episode #46
Have you ever loved someone you could not talk yourself out of, no matter how much simpler life would have been if you could? King David knew that feeling. Joe and Rya look at the famous Bible story with fresh eyes...
Episode #45
Maybe you have a question you stopped asking out loud, because the last time you tried you got corrected on your wording or treated like the enemy. So here is something rare. Someone willing to take your hardest...
Episode #44
What if the most important thing you do for your child has nothing to do with whether you understand them yet? Loving someone well doesn't have to mean you agree with everything they do. You only have to be good at the...

Kris Ripper changed the gender marker on her license because Kansas law required it. Then a rainy night traffic stop over her headlights turned into a ten minute interrogation and the threat of jail time, all for doing...
Episode #43
What does it feel like to walk into a place where you finally get to stop explaining yourself? For a lot of people, that place is Pride. This time the microphone belongs to the community itself, real voices recorded...
Episode #42
Most stories about being LGBTQ+ start with what it costs. But ask a queer person if they'd trade it, and most won't. The road that demands so much also gives so much back. And the gifts are not small. You may be...
