In this episode, Matthew has a conversation with Kelli Dunham.  She is an RN and a stand-up comedian.  They have a great conversation about the impact humor can have on both clinician and patient even in settings where one might not think humor has a place.  They also discuss her history of being an ex-nun and how that experience shaped her life today.KELLI DUNHAM RN, BSN is a community health nurse, trauma-informed stand-up comic and storyteller and author of seven hilarious nonfiction books about not humorous subjects including the best-selling Boy's Body Book (Cidermill Press) and the award-winning How to Survive And Maybe Even Love Nursing School (FA Davis, 3rd edition, 2017).Kelli has appeared on Showtime, the Discovery Channel, the BBC's Religion and Culture Hour, PBS' Stories From the Stage, the Moth Mainstage and Radio Hour, Jubilee Media and Getting Curious with Jonathan Van Ness. Kelli speaks frequently to healthcare providers and other folks who have impossible jobs about laughter at the end of life, using humor to combat vicarious trauma, the family/provider perspective on medical aid in dying and storytelling as an act of radical self-care. Kelli was recently named one of 48 LGBT People of Influence by Philadelphia Gay News and was featured as the face of nonbinary fashion in the workplace for the New York Times, even though no one has before or since called her fashionable. Want more of Kelli? Her substack Second Helping Gazette is a free funny practical newsletter dedicated to helping helpers help and of course, she's hilariously helpful on all the usual platforms like Youtube, IG and TikTok. But probably you should just invite Kelli to speak at your next conference. Rumor has it that she'll bake you cookies! Or homemade beef jerky. Former New York Mayor Bill DeBlasio once called Kelli a show-off.

My guest this week is Mark Segal, who started making waves in the 1960s and hasn't stopped since. Mark was there for Stonewall, he was there for the organizing of the first Prides that followed, and he was ready to get arrested for the cause of gay liberation — and was many times, including on one memorable occasion when he invaded a broadcast of the CBS evening news. These days, he claims the title of the nation's most awarded LGBT journalist, he continues to oversee operations at the Philadelphia Gay News, and he has some wisdom to offer queer people following the trail that he blazed.We'll have that conversation in just a moment.

I was inspired to write this by a service at the Unitarian Universalist church that I attend. (My partner and I now participate in services virtually.) This story is, in many ways, an addendum to my book Tea Leaves, a memoir of mothers and daughters published by Bella Books. So here it is, a Mother's Day story. The story is on my YouTube channel --that and the text of the story is on my blog. Janet Mason, author | Just another WordPress.com site I am also the author of THEY, a biblical tale of secret genders (Adelaide Books) and most recently The Unicorn, The Mystery. An article about The Unicorn, The Mystery recently ran in the Philadelphia Gay News. You can read the article here.

As a law student motivated by social justice issues Tiffany ignored her professors’ advice to keep a low LGBT profile, instead launching a career where she’s helped countless people navigate the murky legal waters surrounding non-traditional families and births.Hear how she helped preserve a six-year mother-daughter bond when the former partner (the biological mother) cut off contact … how she prevented a well-known actress from backing out of motherhood after a surrogate birth … how she intervened when airport security stopped a gay couple with their newborn because no mother was present … and how along the way she won a seminal Pennsylvania Supreme Court case allowing people in non-traditional families to have full parental rights.Same-sex marriage has been profound nationally, and also personally for her 2-mom family. But we hear how it also forces people to come out if they want to register for benefits, risking workplace discrimination which is still not illegal.Asking “Am I doing enough?” after the 2016 presidential election she became a candidate for judge, winning a position in Philadelphia’s Court of Common Pleas a week after we talked. She talks about her eye-opening campaign, and the kind of judge she aspires to be.Podcast website: https://nwphillypodcast.netMore about Tiffany Palmer:Jerner & Palmer, Attorneys at Law — Website, FacebookTiffany Palmer for Judge — Website, VideoLinkedInThomas Jefferson University bioArticles by Tiffany PalmerCommon-law marriage opens doors to legal rights for LGBT elders (Philadelphia Gay News, 2019)Surrogacy Attorney Tiffany Palmer answers questions about the New Jersey Gestational Carrier Agreement Act (Jerner & Palmer, 2018)Baby S: Are You My Mother? - a Lesson in Contractual & Parental Responsibility (Path2Parenthood, 2016)8 Articles about same-sex marriage, adoption, and surrogacy (Philadelphia Bar Association, 2011-2015)Obergefell Brings Marriage Equality Nationwide, But Legal Questions Remain (Philadelphia Bar Association, 2015)The Winding Road to the Two-Dad Family: Issues Arising in Interstate Surrogacy for Gay Couples (Rutgers School of Law Journal of Law and Public Policy, 2011)
