“It’s Our Turn” is a show where the hosts, Emerson and Aydan, share their stories growing up as queer people in toxic religious environments. Our hope is that it will provide education, validation, and maybe even a laugh or two for those healing from religious trauma. The more people know about how these systems affect people the better off we will all be. Now, you will hear no “religion bashing” here. Just sincere, heartfelt (and sometimes mildly irreverent) stories about how we navigated the world of religion, our own journey of healing, and what we’ve learned along the way.

Episode 53: Aydan and Tony-Can you hear me now?
I apologize for the poor sound quality. Aydan's mic is very quiet throughout the entire episode. Listen carefully and you might hear something interesting....but no guarantees

Episode 52: Tony and Aydan attempt to talk about New Year's Resolutions
It's the usual format for Tony and Aydan. They say they'll talk about New Year's Resolutions and then talk about anything but that.

Episode 51: Tony’s sister joins us!
Christi, Tony's sister, joins Aydan and Tony in this episode. She discusses her experience with toxic religion and the family dynamics it can create. It is difficult, sobering and hilarious! We would expect nothing less from the sister of Tony.

Episode 49: Aydan & Tony - Reminiscing and Hypocrisy
*I apologize for the audio quality in this one. There were some mic issues that I wasn't aware of until I was listening to the recording to edit.
Aydan and Tony talk about some memories of their time in church, the challenges that anxiety from their religious trauma creates in making life choices now, and some hypocrisy and irony of many toxic religious organizations who claim they're behaving "like Jesus" -
