This is a show about individual experience and personal identity.

There may be times when folks use identifying words or phrases that don't feel right to you.

That's part of what we're exploring here.

Please listen with an open heart, and as always, I welcome your polite, engaged feedback,

and I encourage you to continue the conversation in your own life and with your own community.

Welcome to Query.

Hey Queryos, Cammy here.

Today on the show, Brian Wenneke, executive director of the Yig Get's Better Project,

who likes this conversation, and I want to thank Brian for joining me.

And I also want to thank our many contributors that help the show run.

come to live shows, or they're part of our Hey Queryos meetup group that happens once a month

on a Sunday. So if you want to support the show, get involved, or I don't know, get to know me,
