On this week’s episode of This News is So Gay:
- The threat to SNAP benefits. How gay of an issue is this and who is stepping up to help?
- It’s November, but that doesn’t mean we don’t have some Pride news. What’s going on across the country with Pride?
- There are some LGBTQ+ folks you might not know about, and we’re going to learn more in a round of, “Who the heck is that?!”
- And, of course, queer joy. Where is our roundtable finding queer joy in the news right now?
Joining us this week to answer these questions and so many more:
- Editor-in-chief and founder of LOOKOUT, Arizona’s statewide LGBTQ+ newsroom, Joseph Darius Jaafari.
- Rural LGBTQ+ beat reporter for The Buckeye Flame and a corps member for Report for America, Ben Jodway.
- And joining us for the first time, Pulitzer-Prize-winning enterprise reporter for The Washington Post, Marissa J. Lang.
- Hosted by: Editor of The Buckeye Flame, Ken Schneck.
