Today's episode was recorded live over Zoom on February 28th, 2022. We start with a healthy open mic before we get into our headliners. First, is David Pevsner an LA-based actor, writer, and personal organizer. His diverse stage career ranges from regional theatre to Broadway, and he has appeared in many network TV shows and films. He continues his anti-shame, anti-ageism, pro-nudity and sexuality mission with his first book Damn Shame: A Memoir of Desire, Defiance, and Show Tunes which was recently published by Random House Canada. Then we hear from Gabriel Ramirez, a Queer Afro-Latinx poet, activist, and teaching artist. He has performed on Broadway at the New Amsterdam Theatre, United Nations, The Lincoln Center, Apollo Theatre and has been featured in Huffington Post, VIBE Magazine, Blavity, and Upworthy. His electrifying writing and performance are catalysts towards healing and brings awareness to mental health, Afro-Latinidad, the African Diaspora, self love, masculinity, and social change.
