Satisfying on Several Levels

Double-minorities (sexual and religious) often have trouble finding podcasts whose focus coincides with their own ... until now. For the non-heterosexual, non-religious, Tony Pitman's podcast offers an LGBT perspective on skepticism (with an Australian flavor). And not only is the podcast tailored to the narrow niche where my thoughts dwell, it's actually entertaining, professionally produced and highly informative. It's now on my weekly list of skepti-humani-atheistic podcasts, and I'm glad I can now recommend one that maintains an openly LGBT frame of reference, as well.
