This is a super special episode because I got to discuss LGBTQ issues with one of my close friends, Owen. We covered as much as we could about sexuality, gender, and growing up in a semi-progressive era. I hope you enjoy this discussion. We hope you learn something from our discussion if you are just listening in to discover more about the LGBTQ+ community. If you are part of the community, we tried our best to capture our own experiences. We also talk about being outed, gender disphoria, misogyny, and abuse, so if any of these topics are triggering to you please listen with caution. A huge thanks to Owen for helping develop this episode and being a part of this discussion.

Letter To A Lost Cause

Queer Exploration and Explanation

I am switching the purpose of this podcast to better fit the situation that we are in right now in society. I wanted to discuss police brutality, it was going to be the first video that I posted on my YouTube channel but I’ve decided to switch that series onto here and make it a podcast. I hope you enjoy and also do research on your own because I am not in charge of your education. Stay safe. stay healthy. stay informed. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/alex-ivory/support
