LGBTQ Film Hall of Fame

LGBTQ Film Hall of Fame

In this inaugural episode of the LGBTQ Film Hall of Fame, Stephen, Lizette and the self-appointed executive producer, third co-host and younger brother, Anthony, review the top ten LGBTQ+ must watch films.

Backwards Never, Forward Ever.

In this episode of the Parent Advocate, Lizette Trujillo and Stephen Chukumba talk SCOTUS gutting of the Voting Rights Act, the tragic murder of Juniper Blessing and the horrific response to her death, and criminal subpoenas out of Texas for NYU Langone’s transgender patients. In Allies & Assholes, we celebrate the Colorado Supreme Court for ruling that Children’s Hospital Colorado must resume gender-affirming care for transgender youth. We also drag parents who kick out their children for being trans.

Dear Mama

In this episode of the Parent Advocate Podcast Stephen Chukumba and Lizette Trujillo welcome our special guests Lizette's mother, Carmen Whetstone, and her son Daniel. Our discussion centered on Carmen's journey supporting her transgender grandson over the past decade, including her initial reactions and learning process. In Today's Topics we cover Dave Chappelle's revisionist history regarding his transphobic comedy, Caitlyn Jenner's hypocritical statements about trans rights, and Phil's Coffee's decision to remove pride flags before reversing course. We conclude with Allies and Assholes highlighting the Montana Supreme Court's ruling protecting transgender rights as an ally, and drag DoorDash for their participation in a cringeworthy political stunt at the White House.

Isle of Misfit Dads

In this episode of the Parent Advocate, Lizette Trujillo and Stephen Chukumba chop it up about b’day parties, karaoke, SXSW and Stephen losing his voice. In Today’s Topics, we cover the United Nations rejecting the US’s attempts to redefine gender, the US Senate rejecting Trump’s SAVE Act, and 72% of Americans supporting protections for LGBTQ+ people. We interview the Hell Raiser Dad and "Dadvocate," Casey Deck, and talk testifying at the state capital, standing up for trans kids, and holding space for parents. In Allies & Assholes, we celebrate librarian Luanne James for refusing to uphold book bans, and drag the Portuguese Parliament for advancing three anti-trans bills.

We listen, we do not judge.

In this episode of the Parent Advocate podcast, Lizette and I catch up on all the partying in the street she’s been doing, my kid losing school shirts and AirPods, and my final prep for SXSW. In Today’s Topics, SCOTUS weighs in on a California lawsuit about schools outing trans students, Missouri passes three trans bathroom bans out of committee under the cover of darkness, and NY AG Letitia James orders major medical centers to resume gender affirming care for youth. In this episode we're joined by Cora Davidson, a neurodivergent queer mom of two gender expansive kids, and get her kids' origin stories, navigating queerness and neurodivergence, and finding joy in small things. Finally, in Allies & Assholes, we celebrate Lyft for helping trans and nonbinary residents get around in Kansas, and drag Joe Rogan for using his platform to spew hateful disinformation to his massive audience. Stick around to the end for a '79 throwback with our outro song, Video Killed The Radio Star by The Buggles.
