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!
Episode 20.5: The 'G' in EGOT! Asher and Liv overview the premiere season of ‘God is Gay’ and recognize the figures throughout history and pop-culture covered. Our next season of new stories will be coming at you in the New Year 2027!
