Today, Jessica Webber (they/she) launches the new 2SLGBTQ+ History podcast, Here's My Tea. Jessica says, "This follows the long queer tradition of sharing our collective histories over a pot of tea at the kitchen table (though, not necessarily always recorded at the kitchen table)."
"No conversation is off-limits, and the safe word is consent" says Webber.
The mission of the podcast series is to share stories from a variety of Atlantic Canadians within the collective Queer Experience.
Episode 1 features Ursula Mogensen, who talks about bisexuality, religion, education, nightlife, adult work, Pride parades, kink, literature, and so much more.
