The KMMA Media Podcast Network
Back from another unplanned hiatus… this week, I bring you a review and author interview.
What you are about to hear is an interview that I did with Chris Jarvis as part of our It’s A Queer Thang podcast when we interviewed George M Johnson, author of All Boys Aren’t Blue, which is an amazing memoir and has the delightful distinction of being one of the most challenged and banned books in the US.
In this episode, we interview Drew Harbaugh with PFLAG Fresno and Trans-E-Motion and then with Ray Quenga with Rainbow Of Light. We discuss the LGBTQ+ makeup of the United States, attacks on the transgender community, red cards, immigration, a brave NFL player protest, Cynthia Erivo, Target, and what’s on our current streaming list. Oh, and we can’t talk enough about…balls.
Political attacks on trans people, the Super Bowl, the Democratic Plan of Resistance… and we interview Diana Oliva, founder of Casita Feliz. Plus, new words for Chris, and then Kaylia falls deep into a Hip-Hop rabbit hole. And puppies!

In this episode we talk to J from Food Not Bombs Fresno about collecting and dispersing food to the community in need, dive into a 2024 election aftermath, talk the Onion and Info Wars, The Liberty Council Naughty or Nice list, empowered people in New Zealand, laugh at some strange monkey business, and share about more local LGBTQ nonprofits.
On this episode we talk to James Martinez and Tyler Mackey about James’ local campaign and a controversial mailer, Will Johnson schools us on the California propositions, and then we discuss the upcoming appearance of the Westboro Baptist Church here in Fresno.
We talk about Halloween, the VP debate, the issues with celebrity endorsements, and local events. Plus we interview Republican Nick Richardson who is running for Fresno City Council District 6. And of course, we have a quiz and a few laughs along the way.
We talk to Doug Greco, who is running to be the first gay Mayor of Austin, Texas. Then we dive into his book about the homophobic murder of one of his former students, an out, vibrant lesbian community member. We move on to suicide prevention month, the Reel Pride Film Festival, local events, pickle balls, and the conflict between Taylor Swift and the candidates. Enjoy!
Chris and Kaylia talk to Robby Kendall from the Silicon Valley Queer Film Festival and Augie Blancas from the Fresno Reel Pride Film Festival. Plus queer movie trivia and Chris sings a delightful ditty!
