Episode 9: Pride

Wendy and Matt talk about obstacle within the LGBT community.  Some of the discussions include safety in the US, freedom for the community, and the growing level of transphobia and homophobia.  Is community the correct term?  If you have any friends or family members who identify and part of the LGBT community please listen and hopefully help make positive changes.
