Before I introduce today’s guest, I want to share some exciting news. Queerology was named as one of the 12 Best LGBTQ Podcasts of 2019 by The Oprah Magazine!! Which, for a podcast that’s quite literally made in a closet, is pretty incredible. Thank you to each of you who listen and who support Queerology on Patreon.
