Quick Episode Summary
The episode begins with some housekeeping. This podcast is moving to join the family over at TheQueerLife.org
As a listener of this show, you shouldn't have to do anything to continue to receive the world changing, mind blowing content I provide, all of the technical issues should have already been handled on my end.
The Queer Life is an independent broadcast for LGBT news and modern perspectives, is broadcast live on Fridays 6 - 8pm PST on KBBF 89.1 San Francisco and California's north bay. Kaiya is awesome, and is definitely a voice for the trans community I am proud to be associated with.
After the housekeeping, I introduce Zinnia Jones. Zinnia has been making atheist videos for years, in fact it was her and Rebecca Watson (of skepchick.org) that helped me overcome my fear of hell, the last stumbling block on my road to accepting my own lack of god belief. Zinnia has also been documenting her bodily transition, and sharing it with the world. She has never been one to shy away from a camera, is never afraid to eloquently posit her opinion, and (very important for this episode) represents a positive expression of a sex positive culture.
Zinnia goes over many topics such as:
Zinnia also provided me with a plethora of links to share with you:
After Zinnia I move over to Sam Harris, which makes sense, because Sam made me so f'ing mad.
A couple of weeks ago Sam Harris was on Real Time with Bill Maher, and the two of them got into a heated debate with Ben Affleck, who called them out on the "gross and racist" opinions of Islam. You can watch the link for yourself here: http://vimeo.com/108354205 I get a little preachy and paternalistic, and for that I apologize. If you disagree with me, feel free to let me know. You have my email, my phone, but I'm also on twitter @transatheistpod and you can comment on episodes on the show page www.trans-atheist.net or Facebook at www.facebook.com/transatheistpod
Finally the show ends with music from Paulina Angel, and the single off her latest album Saturday Mornings Around the Pool, "California Baby" Paulina was recently interviewed over on The Queer Life, episode 6 on September 5, 2014.
