GAYC/DC, yeah, the band name says it all. As a collaborative band of a bunch of friends who are gay musicians that LOVE heavy metal doing AC/DC covers, somehow this had to happen. If only for the fact that the LGBTQ community needs more Punk and Metal in their diet. GayC/DC are exactly that. As the drummer Brian Welch explained it "We wanted to take the most "hetero-normal " band and turn it on it's head". It wasn't really that difficult honestly, for some songs they would just change a single letter from "R" to "C" in "Let there be ROCK". You can see where this is going. I have interviewed 3 of them in other bands over the years, and it is always great to talk to them, not just for the jokes, but for their history in music, these guys are pros and have the stories to back it up. This is a labor of tasteless rude and offensive love (and lust I suppose). They will have you laughing, and then tell you something thoughtful in the same moment. They just collaborated with music production Tim Eaton ( En Vogue. Allman Brothers) to do a cover of Argent's song "Hold Your Head Up" a queer rallying anthem against bullying. The video tells the story, and these guys just happened to be the voice for it. (link below). If you want loud, rocking, tasteless, rude and offensive, look no further than GayC/DC, these guys deliver in ways that hair metal bands can't even imagine. They actually started a cult following by attending an AC/DC concert wearing their own band T-shirts. I wore their T-shirt to UTAH PRIDE, and consider it an honor to know these guys.

Trigger Warning: This episode contains subjects that may be upsetting to some.  Please use discretion. Every child deserves to grow up in a safe and loving environment, especially those in foster care who have already experienced trauma and displacement. However, queer kids in foster care face unique challenges and are often more vulnerable than their heterosexual and cisgender counterparts. It is essential for us as a society to recognize and address these challenges, and most importantly, to show up for queer kids in foster care by providing them with the support, understanding, and acceptance they need to thrive. Research has shown that LGBTQ kids who have support from caring adults are more likely to succeed academically, have higher self-esteem, and experience lower rates of substance abuse and suicide. By showing up for these children, we can significantly improve their long-term outcomes and set them on a path toward success. Our guest this month, Jonathan Foulk, Co-CEO of the Utah Pride center shares his heartbreaking story of growing up queer in foster care.

Today, we're talking about the history of the LGBTQ+ experience in Utah. At the beginning of Utah's statehood, it was common for people of the same gender to live together. Think of groups of women in polygamist households or scores of men living together on ranches. So, did anyone question these groups' sexuality?

Happy Utah Pride Week everyone! To celebrate Utah Pride week, I am sharing one of the most important interviews in the history of Mormon Stories Podcast. It is the story of Kyle Ashworth - a dear, brilliant, talented friend, and the host of Latter Gay Stories podcast. This interview is important for at least 3 reasons: Kyle is a truly brilliant, caring human. That should be enough. It conveys super powerfully the myriad of ways in which the Mormon Church harms its LGBTQ members AND its straight members - including a deep dive into the serious problems of mixed-orientation marriages within Mormonism, along with the deep ineffectiveness and deceptiveness of organizations like North Star International. Finally, It is ultimately a story of "love winning out" as Kyle, his ex-wife, and her family fulfill their mantra, "One Family, Two homes." Join us today to hear the conclusion of Kyle's truly inspiring story. Please watch and enjoy, and please spread the word!!!

Aired: 6/4/19, 1640AM, ktalkmedia, Salt Lake CityUtah Pride Center's Executive Director Rob Moolman discusses Utah Pride, and the changing culture centered around the LGBT community here in Salt Lake City, Utah.

For this episode of Utah Epodcopalians, we are gearing up for the 2019 Utah Pride Festival! The Episcopal Diocese of Utah has participated in the festival and marched in the Pride Parade for many years. This year's diocesan participation is being coordinated by St. Paul's Episcopal Church - Salt Lake City. The Rev. Kurt Wiesner, Rector at St. Paul's, as well as Christian Larsen, a member of St. Paul's Vestry and also this year's diocesan Parade Marshal, discuss the dynamics of the Utah Pride Parade and why it is such an important event in both the Episcopal community and the wider Utah community.

Erika Munson, a straight married Latter-day Saint, shares her journey of marching in a Utah Pride parade in 2012 which led to founding of Mormons Building Bridges. Erika has great Christlike principals for active Latter-day Saints to step into this space of supporting God’s LGBTQ children. She also shares helpful insights about our LGBTQ friends. Thank you Erika for sharing your story. You are awesome!

Natasha Helfer Parker interviews Duane E. Jennings on the topic of his extensively researched volumes, Stumbling Blocks & Stepping Stones, where he examines the history in Mormonism in regards to the theological and social messages focused on LGBTI+ members. His work and attention to detail is impressive. And his goal is to embolden dialogue so that we can reach a point where this population is not excluded as it is presently from the faith community, rituals, traditions, lifestyle trajectories and even the very plan of salvation.  DUANE E. JENNINGS was born in Mount Pleasant, Utah, and raised in Salt Lake City in a devout LDS family. His parents stressed scripture study, prayer, and meditation as the source of revelation and personal growth. This active mind-and-spirit approach to religion may be attributed to living in an LDS community situated between the University of Utah and Westminster College. He graduated from the University of Utah with a bachelor of arts (BA) degree in English and history, and a secondary education teaching certificate (junior high and high school), as well as graduating from the LDS Institute of Religion at the University of Utah. He served his mission in South Africa. ​Duane has been aware of his sexual orientation since about age fourteen and, after confronting what seemed to be the contradictions between being a devoted Latter-day Saint and his sexuality, embraced these contradictions and has transferred his energies into harmonizing the two. He has held leadership positions in the Salt Lake Chapter of Affirmation: Gay & Lesbian Mormons and in 1996 received the Mortensen Award, Affirmation’s highest award for excellence in continual service. ​Duane has also represented Affirmation at the National Religious Leadership Roundtable, which supports gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgender individuals in religion. In addition, he edited and published the Salt Lake Affirmation chapter’s newsletter for over 10 years, and was religion/spirituality editor and writer (1994-1996) for The Pillar magazine (Utah’s LGBT Magazine (published from 1993-2007)).  In 2000 Duane worked with an Episcopal minister and Metropolitan Community Church ministers and together started what has become the annual Pride Interfaith Service that kicks off the annual Utah Pride events each June. ​A sixth-generation Mormon, Duane proudly claims his spiritual place in creation and his relationship with God, in spite of limitations in religious traditions, including Mormonism.
