Ep. 47 Our Big Gay Episode

This week on the Carolina Snowflake Podcast we’re joining the masses in celebration of Pride Month!

Tune in to this week’s casual conversation with more than a few funny quips as we talk about our own positions as allies in the LGBTQ+ world. Hear how we first learned that our hetero-normative selves weren’t the only way to be and what that meant growing up in the deep red south.

We also discuss some of our favorite LGBTQ+ celebrities, authors and journalists this week and relay how these individuals have shaped our own understandings of what being gay or lesbian or trans or just plain different means in the grand scheme of things.

We also pose a handful of questions to the LGBTQ+ community and hope that maybe we’ll get a few answers.

At the end of the day, we say love is love. The Carolina Snowflakes fully support your right to be who you are and to love who you choose.

We had a blast recording Our Big Gay Episode and we hope you enjoy!
