all my friends are queer
by rae (they/them)
Welcome to all my friends are queer. On this podcast, I document my life as I live it, with the goal of sharing my experiences as a fat, disabled, Chicanx, queer person. In a world lacking queer representation, I feel it is important to share my story publicly with no filters, just raw vulnerability. Some recurring themes include queer liberation, fat liberation, mental health, healthcare, and queer culture. Join the discourse on social media by using the hashtags #amfaq and #twcw (that was crazy when...)!

Beus Pond
