Life Through a Queer Lens Podcast Insights

Life Through a Queer Lens is where queer history, lived experience, and cultural critique collide, unapologetically and with heart.

Co-hosted by Jenene (she/they) and Kit (he/they/it)—two queer activists from different generations with shared values and distinct voices. This podcast brings raw, nuanced conversations to life through a blend of education, storytelling, intersectionality, and just the right amount of sass.

Together, we unpack the complexity of queerness in today’s world while honoring the legacies and liberation work that brought us here. We dive into topics like evolving queer language, body autonomy, disability justice, gender euphoria, artistic expression, grief, protest, neurodivergence, and chosen family. Whether it’s deep-diving into queer-coded characters in the arts, spotlighting underrepresented voices in our LGBTQIA+ umbrella, or making sense of headlines and harmful legislation, we’re here to ask the hard questions and hold space for real answers.

Kit brings firsthand insights as a disabled, autistic, trans masc non-binary person; Jenene brings an artistic and strategic lens from their work in queer performance spaces and nonprofit leadership. Together, we hold a commitment to uplift all marginalized communities, knowing that no one is free until we all are.

We speak to those who’ve lived it, those who are living it, and those ready to listen deeply. No rainbow capitalism here. Just real, messy, brilliant queer truths. If you’re craving layered conversations that honor the past, question the present, and dream toward liberation, pull up a chair.

This is radical, curious, layered, liberatory queer storytelling.

Queer, allied, learning, unlearning, or somewhere in between, you’re welcome here.

This is Life Through a Queer Lens. Welcome.
