Join us for a conversation with Bryan Esparza from Community Link about the upcoming Fresno Rainbow Pride Parade and Festival on Saturday, June 7th in the Tower District. We talk Grand Marshalls, sponsors, festival Q&A, where you can watch live, and where to get your tickets in advance. Also, learn about the programs Community Link operates and how you can participate and support. Then there’s Community Link’s biggest fundraiser this year, the Margaret Cho show at the Tower Theater on May 31st. Kaylia has some Margaret Cho trivia, and we start to dive into words the LGBTQ+ community is reclaiming, and the best and worst US states for LGBTQ+ rights.

Women driving on the back roads of Madera County, near the foothills of the Sierra Nevada in California, have reported seeing a strange specter – a man who appears on the roads and who requires that drivers take care to avoid hitting him, but then he vanishes. In this episode, Matt discusses the uncertain origin and possible meaning of this particular ghost story.
