  • Incredible storytellers

  • A true gift

    I’m not sure there’s anything more important than preserving and amplifying queer women’s culture in this historical moment. This podcast does this beautifully, with such well produced and engaging stories… It’s just like being there. Thank you so much for all you do, and have brought to my knowledge of our culture.
