Joyously Free! host Joni Lindenmeyer talks with Brian Green, a gay barber newly settled in Brookings with his husband Aaron. Brian recounts growing up in South Carolina, studying ministry and vocal performance, singing as a missionary, and later pivoting from property management to barbering as a service-centered, inclusive craft. He shares his memorable double proposal with Aaron, reflects on grief and chosen family, and his effort to support LGBTQ+ youth.
