by Asher O’Briant
What happens when a philosopher and a comedian walk into a podcast? Everything comes out! Asher O’Briant and Liz Bein discuss queer themes within all religions. Researching and serving up stories within art, history, spirituality, & pop culture that have been swept under the rug. The show’s akin to “Drunk History” but with gay tea instead. With a tone that somewhere between meditative and tabloid gossip, “God is Gay” is certain to offend at least one person at every dinner party!
