Episode 3: Be Gay -- It Helps Your Parents
from Fandom of the Opera
In this week’s episode, we’re joined by a very special guest: Maria Roca (aka Alissa’s mom!). We cover everything from Maria’s history with opera, theatre, and the arts to her years as a legendary Con Mom, plus a whole lot of heartfelt chaos in between. There’s laughter, vulnerability, incredible storytelling, and several moments that feel like getting a warm hug — with just a little trauma sprinkled in for seasoning.As requested by Maria, please check out and support:Roots of Compassion and Kindness (ROCK) Centerwww.fgcu.edu/cas/centers/rockcenter/Hosted by Alissa Roca & Gwen HylandSpecial Guest: Maria RocaEdited by Alissa RocaArt by CHIMIMusic by Rachel Dean and Erin Reifler
