I think your show is great because it makes 🏳️🌈LGBTQ people comfortable about themselves (like me, I’m bisexual, but mostly lesbian) when it comes to sexuality. 🏳️🌈🏳️🌈🏳️🌈🏳️🌈🏳️🌈🏳️🌈🏳️🌈🏳️🌈🏳️🌈🏳️🌈🏳️🌈🏳️🌈🏳️🌈🏳️🌈
Apple Podcasts5did you know that?United States3 years ago - Amazing for EVERYONE
I recommended this podcast to my mom, and we would listen to these episodes biweekly on our own time. When we hung out once in a while, we would talk about everything we learned and about what we thought. I am queer, and my mom is straight, and this podcast was the best way to look at the world through both perspectives. My mom and I sometimes act like we’re talking to S & P, when we have our fun drives together while listening to an episode of girl on girl. Overall, I love the idea and it’s so ... more
Apple Podcasts5MauniDCanada3 years ago - Fun and empathetic
Such a great podcast, excellent coverage of so many issues covering the queer experience - including in the black and ‘brown’ communities - while referencing the straight experience as well. Sar and Pers are longtime best friends and create the perfect space for their guests to open up and share their lives.
