Windy City Queercast

Host: Amy Matheny with guest host Kelli Simpkins

Dish: Amy is finally in bed with her partner, Kelli, not her mother-in-law Mitchell. Listen to an intimate conversation remembering 10 years ago when they did not know each other but were connected by a single event.

Guest: Judy Shepard, the mother of murdered teen, Matthew, spends time with Amy on the Queercast. A tireless champion of human and gay rights for a decade, Judy announces a new initiative for the Matthew Shepard foundation. Visit www.matthewshepard.org for more.

AND for LGBTQ youth, visit the cool community building at Matthew’s Place (www.MatthewsPlace.com) where they blog, find resources and delve into their own activism. Plus they have their own podcast!
