[BONUS] Queerly Beloved: Episode 3 Oct 01, 2018

Show notes

If you like The VICE Guide To Right Now, we think you'll also enjoy our newest podcast from VICE: Queerly Beloved. Co-hosted by Sarah Burke and Fran Tirado, it’s a multifaceted portrait of LGBTQ chosen family—the people who help us figure out who we are and inspire us to live as our most authentic selves. In a world obsessed with significant others, Queerly Beloved focuses on the unconventional, seemingly insignificant relationships that actually end up shaping us most.

Here's the third episode, "The Siblings." In this episode, you'll hear about Diana and Seth. They are biological siblings who are both trans and who, despite having vastly different stories of coming out, influenced each other’s notions of gender and identity throughout their entire lives.
