This is part 1 of a 3 part (bi-weekly) series where my friend Leo from the Conversations Official podcast takes over the show for Pride 2023. Leo is part of the LGBTQ community and passionate about Queer Theology, Interfaith work, and so much more. They'll introduce themselves in this episode and set up what to expect over the next couple. Leo approached me back in April after my dad passed away and offered to do a few solo episodes for us regarding some things they're passionate about so as to help me out during this season of grief. I love the work that Leo is doing and have a ton of respect for them, their work, and the obstacles they've overcome ... and so I immediately said, "YES!". Buckle up, and enjoy! Episodes will continue to drop bi-weekly after this series starting with a convo with Bart Ehrman that I'll drop on July 10.
