3. The Gifted Actor - The Murder of Jonathan Joss


Listen Later

In this episode, Bella examines the recent and tragic murder of Indigenous actor Jonathan Joss—best known for his roles of John Redcorn on King of the Hill and Chief Ken Hotate on Parks and Recreation. His case brings attention to the silence and injustice so often faced by Indigenous and LGBTQ+ victims. This is more than a true crime story—it’s a call to remember, to speak up, and to demand visibility and justice for our Indigenous and LGBTQ+ relatives, not just during Pride Month or on May 5th, but on every platform, every stage, and every day we can. 


Happy Pride Month my MF lovelies! Never forget how loved and valued you are, just the way you are! <3
