While Jaimie takes a much-needed summer break with her family, we're bringing back Rosie O'Donnell's unfiltered interview from 2019. Hear about her trailblazing journey as an LGBTQ parent during a time when few Hollywood stars were out, her personal struggles, and what it’s like to be the target of Donald Trump’s wrath. This episode originally aired when the podcast, co-hosted & co-founded by Robin Hopkins, was known as "If These Ovaries Could Talk." Enjoy this special throwback!

Hosted by queer mom Jaimie Kelton, The Queer Family Podcast-LGBTQ Families & Queer Parenting Stories offers a weekly space that is both uproariously funny and deeply genuine. Each episode features conversations with LGBTQIA+ parents, hopeful parents, and their allies, delving into the specific joys and hurdles of building a family outside of traditional frameworks. You’ll hear firsthand accounts of the paths to parenthood-from adoption and fostering to IVF and surrogacy-and the everyday realities of raising kids in a world that can still feel unfamiliar. This podcast moves beyond theory, focusing on lived experiences that cover everything from health and fitness routines that work for queer families to navigating complex conversations about sexuality and society with children. The goal is straightforward: to share stories that normalize these experiences, elevate diverse voices, and celebrate the full spectrum of queer family life. Tuning in means connecting with a community, finding resonance in shared challenges, and gathering a lot of practical wisdom-and laughter-along the way. It’s a resource and a companion for anyone curious about or living within the beautifully expansive definition of a modern family.
