Outward: Slate's LGBTQ podcast Slate Podcasts

While the Outward team makes the most of Pride Month, we have a special treat for you, the first episode of Slow Burn: Gays Against Briggs. 
— 
In the 1970s, San Francisco became a welcoming home for tens of thousands of new gay residents—and a modern-day Sodom for the American right. With a moral panic sweeping across the United States, a Florida orange juice spokeswoman inspired an ambitious California politician to launch his own campaign against lesbians and gays—one that would change the course of U.S. history.
