This podcast operates on the belief that our mental health, our love lives, and the culture we live in are inextricably linked. It’s about finding your footing in a complex world, with Joshua offering queer perspectives that are both insightful and deeply relatable. Tune in for a blend of personal journals, cultural commentary, and practical advice that tackles the full spectrum of LGBTQ life, all delivered with a distinctive and engaging voice.
