Summary

Hey everyone, Austin here! As you may have heard, our sister site Broadly has launched a new podcast called Queerly Beloved all about LGBTQ communities, chosen families, and love--romantic and otherwise. To help them kick it off on the right foot, we wanted to share the first episode with you directly. Give it a listen, and if you like it, make sure to subscribe (and hey, leave a review telling them we sent you!)

Catch y'all tomorrow with a regular Friday ep of Waypoint Radio!

---

Queerly Beloved is a new podcast series from Broadly. Co-hosted by Broadly editor Sarah Burke and Fran Tirado of the popular queer podcast Food 4 Thot, it’s a multifaceted portrait of LGBTQ chosen family—the people who help us figure out who we are and inspire us to live as our most authentic selves.

When Kelli, a self-identified butch dyke, fell deeply in love with dominating cabaret dancer Heather, she already knew she would soon lose her to cancer. But she had no idea that Heather would leave her a list of all her ex-lovers that would turn out to be exactly the queer community she needed while mourning.

Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

0:46.7	through our lives.
0:49.2	You may have already heard about this podcast because yesterday Danielle did a
0:53.8	great conversation, a short one with Sarah Burke who is one of the hosts of
0:57.4	Queerly Beloved. But we thought it'd be a great idea to kind of help boost them
1:02.1	a little bit by making sure that everyone who listens to this gets the
1:05.1	opportunity to listen to it given that first episode of Shot. Listen, that's
1:08.8	what they do over on like big public radio things, right? How many times have
1:12.1	you heard Ira Glass be like, hey, I'm Ira Glass and this show that you're about
1:17.3	to listen to is one that I executive produced. This isn't a good Ira Glass
1:20.6	voice. I have a good Ira Glass. That's not it. I don't know what happened there.
1:23.2	That just fell apart. I'll sleep on it. I'll come back to it by this time next
1:27.8	week. You're going to get a good Ira Glass for me. So after I'm done speaking,
1:33.1	we're just going to let this run and shout out as always to the great team
1:36.7	over at Broadly, genuinely, some of the best people I know. Give this a
