I started this podcast to learn more about the LGBTQIA+ community.
I felt like I had a pretty good grasp on the 'G' but I didn't know as much about the L, or B or QTIA+
Over the course of almost 50 interviews I've become a better father, husband, friend, ally and advocate for the community.
This is what I've learned ❤️
Also just a heads up - this is the final episode of this season.

Can you have sex with someone of the same gender and not have it define your life or even your sexuality?
Rob 'Millsy' Mills thinks you can.
Rob came out about having a threesome with Shane Jenek (aka Courtney Act) to normalise the conversation about sexual fluidity among men.
Sean speaks with Rob about growing up with speculation over his sexuality simply because he was in the performing arts, why he decided to share the story about Courtney, how he told his partner about it, and what kind of future he wants for men exploring their sexuality.

Merry Christmas my beautiful friends.
You asked: “Help! My family isn’t accepting of my sexuality. They won’t let me bring my girlfriend home either, which makes me not want to go home for Christmas. Any tips?”
So Sean reached out to his queer brain's trust to get their advice on how you can navigate the holiday season when your family doesn't accept your gender, sexuality, pronouns, partner or the way you dress.
What do you do when someone uses your deadname? How do you answer when someone asks about your girlfriend (but you're gay)? Is it ever okay to skip family Christmas entirely?
The holidays can be hard but we've got you ❤️

Jesse is a queer, non-binary actor and performer. They learned to sing, and fell in love with performance, in the Pentecostal Church as a kid and after school they studied songwriting for two years at Hillsong College.
Jesse knew they were queer all that time but knew they couldn't come out and live authentically if they wanted to remain in the church.
Jesse opens up to Sean about attempting to "pray the gay away", coming out via Facebook before they told their parents, and why they still miss church in spite of everything that's happened.

Robyn Lambird is a non-binary athlete and the first out non-binary Paralympian to win a medal at the Games.
Impressive, right?
So why are people so obsessed with asking them how they have sex or if being non-binary is all a big experiment?
In today's Queer Question, I ask Robyn the most inappropriate questions they get about sexuality, gender, disability and relationships, to find out if these questions are ever okay to ask, and what's a better alternative.
