Steve talks with fellow podcasters from "3 Black Men" and "Mommying While Muslim" about how their different podcasts have created community for their listeners. Steve was able to host this week's guest in studio, because all of them attended the BYU Law School's "Annual Religious Freedom Review," where they spoke together on a panel about this topic. Look for those panel sessions in our extras.

Hosts of the podcast “3 Black Men”--Trey Ferguson, Samuel Gay, and Robert Monson–muse on theology and culture with a wide array of riveting guests. Trey Ferguson is a Miami-Dade County-based minister, writer, and podcaster whose passions include jokes, justice, and Jesus. Samuel Gay is a writer, theologian, and father, who uses music to strengthen others. Robert Monson is a writer, musician, creative, avid reader, and theologian who does work around the intersection of Black liberation and womanist theology.

Mommying While Muslim is hosted by second-generation friends Zaiba Hasan and Uzma Jaffri. Zaiba Hasan is an American Muslim, born and raised in Chicago, who grew up biracial and bicultural. Zaiba’s Irish/Pakistani heritage and interfaith upbringing gave her a head start navigating between identities. Born in Chicago, Uzma Jafri was raised in Huston, Texas. She is the daughter of Muslim immigrants from Pakistan and India. Uzma’s primary job is mothering her four children, but the one that pays is as a solo physician running her own medical practices.
