March 10th is National Youth HIV/AIDS Awareness Day. Today we welcome the multi- talented Anthony Giorgio of the Queer Teen Podcast on to the show. Join Anthony and Ren as they discuss what is like to grow up queer, the importance of queer inclusive, evidence based sexual education, queer faith, what adults can learn from youth, the special magic of queer youth, and whether or not you can still call yourself a baby dyke or a twink after 30 (spoiler: you can!) Tune in, like, and subscribe!
