The Power of Politics, Pyrotechnics, and Pride – Plus an Interview With Congressman Jim Costa – (July 7th, 2023)

In this overstuffed episode, we talk about the hypocrisy of some of our local politicians, the recent Rainbow Day event at the Fresno Zoo, the importance of the rainbow flag, allyship, and coming out… AND we feature a great interview with LGBTQ ally Congressman Jim Costa who joins us to talk about his support for our community as well as some of his plans for the future of the Central Valley. And of course, Kaylia has book recommendations, Chris calls himself old and we say the word “kickball” at least 5 times. (Drink responsibly) Enjoy!
