Season 2 Episode 10: Where Did This Come From?
Our Daily Beard
On this Season 2 FINALE episode, I throw it back to the beginning by sitting in closet with a mic to talk to the air for 30 minutes about my own writing (lol). This time, though, I share some crucial pieces (others AND my own) that influenced and inspired this podcast. By taking you through some of my own writings, I attempt to convey both the foundations and the future of this queer, spiritual podcast. A never-before-heard-or-seen piece is included PLUS many big announcements :)

Our Daily Beard
Join me as I pick Cam Coulter's brain on how Sci-fi and Fantasy lend themselves to radical queer representation. Cam shares their experience in finding queer/trans community within the internet Sci-fi niche and walks me through the many different (and totally rad) pronouns that exist in alternate universes. Come to get your mind blown, stay for the book recs.

Season 2 Episode 8: Community Highlight: What is an 'activist' church?
Our Daily Beard
This week I bring on another internet friend, McKenzie, to share her experience as a parishioner of St. Luke's Church in Long Beach. A self-identified queer, disabled person, she talks about her experience navigating affirming, supportive spaces amidst the vague advertising of "inclusive churches." We sit down to have a real chat about how St. Luke's strives to be a 'social justice church,' not just on paper, but IRL.

Season 2 Episode 6: Queer Iconography? A New Sense of Spirituality w/ Mary
Our Daily Beard
What is the role of art and icons in reconciling religion with queerness? I invite my self-identified "walking strap-on" artistic friend Mary to let me into her journey growing up queer in the Eastern Orthodox Church. We talk through moments of accepting certain religious comforts while desiring to express queerness through alternative spiritualities. Mary walks us step by step through her artistic process as a means of thinking through creative theological spaces.

He walks us through the Jesuit "See. Judge. Act." model and explains why tools like emphatic confrontation and restorative circles can help seemingly polar communities meet in the middle. You can find him and his stellar work @daniellovan72.

Season 2 Episode 4: Is This A Dealbreaker or Is This Just Sex?
Our Daily Beard
Ah yes, the question on everyone's minds! On this riveting episode I invite fellow ex-Catholic (it's a lot warmer than it sounds) and all around lovely human Nicole Claudio @niknokc5 to talk about the awkward period between moving from purity culture into sex-affirming flings and relationships.

Our Daily Beard
On part two of our Enneagram extravaganza, Elizabeth and I dive into Enneagram "wings" and how each of the nine numbers show up in times of growth and stress. In classic ODB style, we ask "What makes the Enneagram both Christian and queer?" "How can we use this tool to queer religion?" "How can queerness adopt the Enneagram without the pressures of religion?" All of this and more!
