Today, we’re bringing you the best from the KUOW Newsroom. First, ahead of the World Cup, Mayor Katie Wilson’s administration has boasted about opening new shelter beds to get homeless people off the streets. But sweeps are continuing, and possibly even increasing. Next, local government agencies have spent more than $100 million dollars on the World Cup in Washington state. Anna Boiko-Weyrauch counted the money and explores whether it’s worth it. And finally, Gays Eating Garlic Bread in the Park - a local Pride event that drew hundreds of people together this month in Seattle. What started as a humble picnic two years ago - has grown into a viral event. We can only make Seattle Now because listeners support us. Tap here to make a gift and keep Seattle Now in your feed.

Description:It's Pride Month, and we couldn't think of a better time to bring back one of our most beloved episodes. Sara Cunningham — founder of Free Mom Hugs — first joined Jen back in 2018, when she was a Christian mom from Oklahoma City who had just started showing up at Pride parades with a handmade sign and a button. A lot has happened since then. What began as one mom extending her arms to strangers has grown into a global movement. Free Mom Hugs now trains advocates, lobbies legislatures, and shows up year after year for LGBTQIA+ people whose own families walked away. Sara hasn't just built an organization — she's built a lifeline. In this conversation, Sara and Jen revisit the journey that started it all: how Sara moved from the church to the Pride parade without losing her faith, what it meant for her son Parker to come out into a family still finding its footing, and how the stories of people who had lost everything — their families, their churches, their sense of belonging — fell into her arms and changed the course of her life. They also talk about what it takes to turn personal pain into structural change, and why showing up — physically, politically, and relationally — for the LGBTQIA+ community matters more than ever right now. This one is worth every minute. Enjoy this encore conversation with our beloved friend, Sara Cunningham! Thought-provoking Quotes: “No one has searched for God more than the Gay Christian.” – Sara Cunningham “The first drag show that I ever went to, when I crossed the threshold, I really thought lightning might strike. But, I realized these are beautiful people raising money for homeless LGBTQ youth. And I was so moved by that. I had it totally wrong. I believed a lie that kept me from some of the most beautiful experiences I've had in my life.”  – Sara Cunningham “I remember there was a time, at the beginning of that journey, I call from the church to the pride parade. It was like reality was setting in. The bubble that I was in, the evangelical conservative mainstream bubble that I was in where everyone looked like me and talked like me, had just shattered. And I wanted to take a banner and put it outside of my house on the front door, like, welcome to the real world. And suddenly it's like my eyes are truly open.” - Sara Cunningham Resources Mentioned in This Episode: LGBTQIA MeCourse - https://shop.jenhatmaker.com/products/parenting-lgbtqia-teens-tweens Mama Bears - https://www.realmamabears.org/  FTL Episode ft.

This week Frank and Dan discuss the Department of Defense's new list of recognized faith categories, which places The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints outside its Christian classifications while simultaneously removing atheists, humanists, pagans, and several other minority belief groups from the list altogether. Elsewhere, we discuss a Christian employee suing over a Pride flag at work, a Presbyterian debate over polyamory, a Colorado gubernatorial candidate's unbelievable personal claims, the rise of megachurch-run colleges, and a UFO religion's latest attempt to prepare humanity for alien contact.

Cato the Younger is a figure rightly revered for his adherence to principles during the late Roman Republic as he opposed the rise of Julius Caesar. While Cato showed remarkable courage in the face of danger, he was also a man obsessed with the idea of upholding law no matter the cost. This has brought him great respect, but it also forced him to exacerbate tensions and spurn allies until he became directly responsible for the creation of the political coalition that would destroy his beloved republic. Historian and host of the "Cost of Glory" podcast Alex Petkas joins me to discuss Cato's tragic fate.  Follow on: Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-auron-macintyre-show/id1657770114 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3S6z4LBs8Fi7COupy7YYuM?si=4d9662cb34d148af Substack: https://auronmacintyre.substack.com/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/AuronMacintyre Gab: https://gab.com/AuronMacIntyre YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/c/AuronMacIntyre Rumble: https://rumble.com/c/c-390155 Odysee: https://odysee.com/@AuronMacIntyre:f Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/auronmacintyre/ Learn more about your ad choices.

This Gay Week: The Flag That Annoys The World It's Pride Month, but in some parts of the United States, the United Kingdom, and beyond, flying a Pride flag has become a political statement, a cultural battleground, and sometimes even a target. Why does a rainbow flag generate so much controversy? Is the outrage genuine, or is it being manufactured by politicians, media personalities, and culture-war influencers looking for the next fight? This week, Karel and Scott Jacobsen of The Good Men Project examine the growing backlash against Pride visibility and what it says about LGBTQ rights in 2026. Also on this episode:

https://square.link/u/UHRU92rp - Donate HereToday's reading brings us back to 1 Peter 5, where Peter calls the church to clothe itself with humility. The younger are called to learn from the wisdom of the elders, and all believers are called to put on the servant-hearted humility of Jesus—the kind of humility that kneels, serves, washes feet, and points every life back to Christ.Peter gives a sobering warning: God opposes the proud, but gives grace to the humble. Pride puts us in opposition to God, but humility positions us to receive His grace. So today, read 1 Peter 5 and choose humility. Tie it around your life like a servant's apron, serve others well, and let your life show the humble love of Jesus.

This Pride Month, Damn You Hollywood examines three acclaimed queer films from very different worlds: Dallas Buyers Club (2013), Cassandro (2023), and Solo (2023). We explore how each project came together, from the long development of Craig Borten and Melisa Wallack's Oscar-winning AIDS drama, to Roger Ross Williams' adaptation of the real-life lucha libre legend Cassandro, to Sophie Dupuis' intimate Canadian drama set in Montreal's drag scene. We'll discuss the casting of Matthew McConaughey, Jared Leto, Gael García Bernal, Théodore Pellerin and Félix Maritaud, the directing choices that shaped each film, and how production realities influenced the stories that ultimately reached the screen.Beyond the behind-the-scenes history, we'll examine the critical and commercial reception of all three films. Why did Dallas Buyers Club become an awards-season powerhouse despite modest box office expectations? Why was Cassandro celebrated by critics yet largely bypassed by mainstream audiences? Why did Solo earn festival acclaim while remaining relatively unknown outside cinephile circles? We'll also tackle the controversies and criticisms surrounding each film, including historical accuracy, representation debates, narrative choices, and the challenges of bringing LGBTQ stories to wider audiences. Join us as we look beyond Pride Month labels and evaluate these films as works of cinema, business ventures, and cultural artifacts.Disclaimer: The following may contain offensive language, adult humor, and/or content that some viewers may find offensive – The views and opinions expressed by any one speaker does not explicitly or necessarily reflect or represent those of Mark Radulich or W2M Network.Mark Radulich and his wacky podcast on all the things:https://linktr.ee/markkind76alsohttps://www.teepublic.com/user/radulich-in-broadcasting-networkFB Messenger: Mark Radulich LCSWTiktok: @markradulichtwitter: @MarkRadulichInstagram: markkind76RIBN Album Playlist: https://suno.com/playlist/91d704c9-d1ea-45a0-9ffe-5069497bad59 

This week, we are celebrating Pride by hitting the highway with a double showing of drag queen road movies: Stephan Elliott's The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert (1994) and Beeban Kidron's To Wong Foo, Thanks for Everything! Julie Newmar (1995). These films show that a road movie is about much more than getting from point A to point B. We look at how Tick's journey in Priscilla allows him to shed the fear of being himself in front of his estranged son, anchoring the comedy with beautiful, independent vulnerability. On the flip side, we watch how the trio in To Wong Foo confront and dismantle their own preconceived notions about small-town communities as they embed themselves in middle America. It is a double feature about identity, community, and self-discovery. Whether it is navigating the harsh Australian outback or transforming a forgotten town, both films suggest that the ultimate destination on a drag journey is finding the confidence within yourself to be yourself completely.

Dr. Josh Mann and Adam Wittenberg break down a shifting cultural landscape during Pride Month. Several states are promoting Fidelity Month and Nuclear Family Month instead, signaling growing resistance to progressive celebrations. The hosts discuss reclaiming symbols like the rainbow, the outsized role of sexuality in modern identity, and the need for compassionate, truth-based responses rooted in the image of God. They also cover international developments with U.S. strikes on Iran and proposals for a federal gas tax pause amid rising prices and inflation. A key segment examines the Southern Poverty Law Center's hate map, its history, and a congressional hearing exposing alleged hypocrisy around pro-life views and funding controversies. Additional stories include a Texas track meet stabbing trial verdict and a lighter moment with Senator Eric Schmidt's viral diving catch at the congressional baseball game. The episode closes with reflections on sports memories and a special Faith and Freedom 250 segment on America's Christian foundations.00:00:00 – Introduction00:00:26 – Pride Month Pushback00:01:49 – Reclaiming the Rainbow00:03:07 – Sexuality and Identity00:05:11 – Compassionate Truth00:07:51 – Iran Strikes and Gas Prices00:10:27 – SPLC Hearing00:15:59 – Texas Stabbing Trial00:18:13 – Senator's Baseball Catch00:21:37 – Sports Memories00:25:30 – Faith and Freedom 250Follow The Lion on Facebook, Instagram, X, and YouTube.  You can also sign-up for our newsletter and follow our coverage at ReadLion.com.To learn more about the Herzog Foundation, visit HerzogFoundation.com.

This month we return to our lesbian dating and relationship conversation, the one we share on the second Friday of every month, and by popular request Tonda is back at the table! Anne-Marie is joined by her wife, Tonda McKay, our longtime out lesbian and resident truth teller, and by Barbara Rowlandson, fellow coach and the woman who helps lead our Authentically Us community. Together we work through four real questions pulled from the Lesbian Dating Advice subreddit, and the conversation moves from laughing out loud to genuinely tender.We start with the question so many of us know by heart, is my barista flirting with me, and we talk about strategic ambiguity, the cognitive itch that turns a maybe into a crush, and why two women who like each other can sit in a room and say nothing at all. From there we look at a girlfriend whose closest bond is with her straight married best friend, and we ask the harder question underneath the jealousy, are your needs being met in this relationship. We sit with a heartbreaking note from someone whose partner ended things out of religious guilt, and Anne-Marie and Tonda speak plainly about internalized shame, the cost of loving someone who is still in the closet, and the truth that you can be both gay and beloved by the Divine. We close with the "break" at seven months that is really a breakup, the anxious and avoidant dance, and Barbara's reminder that if someone tells you that you are too much, you are free to go find less.A few invitations from this episode. If you are wrestling with the clobber passages and the old messages about faith and sexuality, we point you toward the resources at Cathedral of Hope in Dallas, a UCC congregation that does this work with real care: https://www.cathedralofhope.com/If this season of your life has a catalyst of its own, Barbara and Anne-Marie created The Catalyst Chapter, a course to help you understand why this work can feel so hard and so holy, and you can find it inside Authentically Us and on the Anne-Marie Zanzal Coaching website, https://annemariezanzal.com/We taped this on the first of June, so wherever you are, we hope you find your way to some community and some queer joy this Pride month, and if it is safe and right for you, we hope you let yourself be seen. We are so glad you are here!

This week, the Good Moms are asking a very important question: Are you a lesbian for real? Erica and Milah get into everything from Daphne Joy’s leaked sex tape to bisexual flirting, Milah’s affinity for soft studs, and why women seem to get crucified forever for choices they made years ago. The moms unpack the internet’s obsession with tearing down beautiful women, why society gives men a pass while women become cautionary tales, and whether technology has made public humiliation a form of entertainment. The ladies also talk about how to navigate having conversations with your kids about Pride and all things LGBTQ+, and their own queer escapades. In this episode, you’ll hear: • Why people seem to love watching beautiful women fall from grace • The double standards facing women like Nia Long, Vivica Fox, and Daphne Joy • Why drugs, bad decisions, or messy relationships never justify exploitation • The risks and realities of filming sex tapes, sending nudes, and navigating intimacy in the digital age • A conversation about "high value" men, baby mama stigma, and why every woman deserves dignity regardless of her relationship status • Milah's latest encounter with a soft stud and why flirting with women can be harder than flirting with men • Why Erica might be gay... until the real lesbians show up • Why the Good Moms proudly identify as toxic bi's • Chavaunist pillow princess jealous bisexuals • Talking to kids about Pride and all things LGBTQ.

This Pride season, why not take a moment to feel proud of your period?

The episode launches the Pride in Bruce series for Pride Month, celebrating LGBTQ+ stories and the ways Bruce Springsteen's music can be a lifeline. Host Jesse Jackson interviews Jason Bisogni, a Westchester, New York marketing professional and lifelong music fan, about his path into classic rock, his early concert experiences, and the moment he became a dedicated Springsteen fan after seeing the 1999 E Street Band reunion tour. Jason shares that he came out later in life (to two people at 39, more fully at 41 in 2021) and explains how Bruce's lyrics took on new meaning afterward, citing songs like “Darkness on the Edge of Town,” “Trapped,” “Living Proof,” and “Two Hearts.” He credits Bob Dylan's “It's All Over Now, Baby Blue” line “He not busy being born is busy dying” as pivotal, discusses chasing songs live, recounts meeting Bruce several times, and answers the “Thunder Road” question by saying Mary does not get in the car. 00:00 Pride in Bruce Intro 01:48 Meet Jesse and Jason 02:21 Jason's Music Roots 03:18 Family Soundtrack Growing Up 06:43 Wrestling Detour and WWE 11:45 Concerts That Sparked It 14:59 Finding Bruce Springsteen 17:29 First E Street Show Magic 19:34 Counting Shows and Fandom 20:48 Static Setlist Debate 24:25 Health, Travel, and Missing Shows 26:27 Bruce and Coming Out Journey 27:01 Coming Out With The Boss 29:32 Lyrics Hit Different Now 32:07 Gay Icon Podcast Picks 34:23 Forever Favorites Playlist 38:18 Born Or Busy Dying 41:04 Songs Still Chasing Live 43:24 Meeting Bruce Stories 48:25 Thunder Road Mary Debate 50:39 Gratitude Pride Month Wrap Learn more about your ad choices.
