Queering Reality with Caro De Robertis

Wednesday, May 21, 2025 • Duration 37:25

This amazing conversation with Caro De Robertis covers so much ground, from their revelatory new book, which is a collage of voices entitled So Many Stars, An Oral History of Trans, Nonbinary, Genderqueer, and Two-Spirit People of Color, to how mainstream feminism can do better than understand gender liberation — but integrate it. We talk about community organizing as resistance, memory as a form of resistance, and a kind of future that’s possible if we don’t do what the power’s that be want, which is diminish ourselves. Please listen, comment, like, share, love.

Queering Reality with Kristen Arnett

Thursday, May 8, 2025 • Duration 31:48

Today, I’m joined by Kristen Arnett — queer, Floridian novelist, essayist, and master of darkly hilarious storytelling. Kristen’s work fearlessly explores the messiness of grief, existential dread, and the strange tenderness buried inside even the most grotesque moments. In this conversation, we talk about what it means to hold space for fear and sorrow while still finding room for levity, absurdity, and humor that makes you laugh and wince. From taxidermy to family dynamics to Florida as setting and backdrop, where, Kristen says, "No matter where you are, things are very juicy and deeply alive." Kristen helps us navigate life’s heaviest themes with a sharp eye and an even sharper wit.

Queering Reality with Jess Graham

Friday, April 25, 2025 • Duration 43:04

Jessica Graham is a multifaceted artist and advocate whose work spans acting, writing, and trauma resolution. As a queer, neurodivergent meditation teacher and author, they bring a deeply personal and unflinchingly honest lens to topics often left in the margins. Their latest book, Being (Sick) Enough: Thoughts on Invisible Illness, Childhood Trauma, and Living Well When Surviving Is Hard, is a collection of essays that delves into the complexities of chronic illness, trauma, addiction, recovery, and grief. Through their smart, funny, raw, and mindful insights, Graham offers readers permission to accept care, and accept that it’s okay to want care.

In this podcast episode, Jess joins me to explore the intersections of feminism and queer reality, drawing from their lived experiences and their work as a trauma-resolution guide. Their voice is a powerful reminder that healing is not linear, identity is multifaceted, and embracing the messy realities of being human is a radical act.

Queering Reality with Jeanna Kadlec

Thursday, April 10, 2025 • Duration 39:55

Today, we’re diving deep into the sacred, the shifting, and the expansive with none other than Jeanna Kadlec — writer, astrologer, and author of Heretic, a memoir about leaving evangelicalism and reclaiming personal power. In this conversation, Jeanna shares how stepping off a prescribed spiritual path can be a radical act of liberation—one that doesn’t lead to certainty, but to a richer, more inquisitive life. Together, we explore how spiritual redirection isn't about finding a final answer, but about learning to live in the questions — questions that open us up to wonder, challenge our assumptions, and expand what we believe is possible.

Queering Reality with Angie Cruz

Thursday, March 27, 2025 • Duration 35:00

Today, I’m thrilled to be joined by the incredible Angie Cruz, the award-winning author of How Not to Drown in a Glass of Water, Dominicana, and other stunning works that explore family, migration, and resilience.

Angie’s writing is deeply rooted in the power of storytelling as a means of survival, connection, and care. In this episode, we talk about feminism as a communal practice—how we lift each other up, create spaces of belonging, and redefine success beyond individual achievement. We’ll also explore the importance of family, both the one we’re born into and the one we build, and why taking care of each other—through literature, through activism, through everyday kindness—is an act of radical love.

Join us for a heartfelt and thought-provoking conversation about what it means to show up for one another, in writing and in life.

James’s story is about refusing to be diminished, about listening to the quiet, persistent voice that says: This is who I am. Today, we’ll talk about what it means to truly know yourself, the obstacles to embracing that knowledge, and the liberation that comes with honoring it.

Queering Reality with Tanaïs

Thursday, February 13, 2025 • Duration 44:46

In Sensorium: Notes for My People by Tanaïs is deeply connected to the philosophical ideas of scent, love, and memory, particularly through a feminist, decolonial, and sensory lens. The book is a blend of memoir, history, and olfactory storytelling, using scent as a medium to explore identity, ancestral memory, and personal and collective histories of trauma, love, and belonging. It is, in her own words, a call for liberation.

Queering Reality with Vera Blossom

Wednesday, January 29, 2025 • Duration 45:05

Vera Blossom writes fast and witty prose that traverse so many aspects of a young, queer life, including the pivotal role of friendships. The essays in How to Fuck Like a Girl cover so many topics, from hookups to witchcraft, petty crime, capitalism, divorce, and survival. The humor and the wit are matched only by the melancholy and intelligence, and importantly, what it put me back in touch with from among all the vivid scenes of my own younger life, was how friendships are like family, serving as a foundation for support, understanding, and resilience within the queer community.

Las Sacadas: Queens of Queer Tango

Thursday, January 16, 2025 • Duration 43:40

A few years back when I met the woman who is now my fiancé, I learned that she was a phenomenal tango dancer among other phenomenal things, and I became intrigued. She introduced me to tango, but also special variation on it — queer tango, which has a whole global community and culture of its own.

It serves as a powerful metaphor for understanding power dynamics within relationships and society as a whole. Unlike traditional tango, which often adheres to rigid roles of leader and follower, queer tango allows for fluidity, inviting dancers to step into both roles. This challenges conventional power structures and creates a space where connection is based on mutual respect, communication, and adaptability rather than dominance and submission. By exploring both leading and following, dancers gain a profound understanding of the balance required to create harmony, whether on the dance floor or in personal and professional relationships. It becomes evident that true connection arises not from imposing one's will, but from listening, responding, and co-creating a shared experience.

Today I talk with two professional queer tango dancers, a duo known as Las Sacadas, and it's a conversation I know you'll love. I'm excited to share it.
