A Minnesota Trans-Atheist
This episode I sit down via Skype with radio host, author, speaker, organizer, and activist Stephanie Zvan. Stephanie has been a major impact on my life through her friendship, her writing, and her ability to bring people together in an effort to improve the world. I'm grateful to have the chance to chat with her one on one, across a variety of topics from Minnesota Atheists to the conferences she has organized and some behind the scenes radio stuff. I hope you enjoy this conversation.

This episode features an interview with a really fun punk band from the Pacific Northwest, Slurm Flirty Worm. Slurm's drummer and back up vocalist (Abbi) is trans, and a listener local to Slurm helped connect Abbi and I. The whole band, Abbi, Michael, & Zakk are awesome, and I had a lot of fun chatting with them about how they got their name, what kind of music they play, and of course which hot pockets are the best hot pockets.

- 05:29 Intro to Yannick
- 51:24 "Sustaining", by Yannick Taylor
My guest for this episode is Yannick Taylor who hosts the Black Tran and Beautiful podcast, which can be found pretty much everywhere my podcast can be found…I found her on Spotify. When I was checking to make sure this show looked the way I wanted it to in Spotify I searched the word “Trans”. That was back in December, and even now searching in June, the only two transgender podcasts that come up when I search “trans” are hers and mine…which is like really sad. On the other hand, it gave me an opportunity to meet and chat with The Divine Priestess herself, Yannick Taylor. Her show page describes The Black, Trans, & Beautiful Podcast as “an outlet to educate, enlighten, entertain, and to inspire. No topic is off limits.” I’ve been a listener and patreon for a few months now, and it’s a great addition to my regular podcast rotation.
In case it wasn’t obvious by the title, Yannick is a black trans woman, and she’s also a church leader…which makes yet another christian that has been willing to come on this atheist podcast…I guess hashtag not all christians?
Stick around through the interview, as Yannick is also a musician, so I thought it would only be appropriate to close the show out with her music.
