What is it like to be queer and religious? On this episode, we're joined by Virgin Radio host and queer icon Shannon Burns to find out! We talk to Shannon about growing up in an extremely religious community and discovering her sexuality along the way. She tells us about her decision to leave her church and the backlash she received because of it, even as she maintained her personal relationship with God. Shannon explains how religion has enhanced her experience as a queer person and why she chooses to be so open about her sexuality on social media (and live on the air). Plus, what it was like to interview Demi Lovato, Ed Sheeran, Lewis Capaldi, and more. Want to keep up with Shannon? Follow her @itsshannonburns and listen to her film podcast, Screen Queens! And don't forget to listen to her show on Virgin Radio from 10 to 2, Monday to Friday.
