This is the inaugural episode of a new format for the UUSM Connections Podcast. It's called our Soapbox Series. Our first guest is Kate Wasserman who has a thing or ten to say about the rights of trans women in sports, the Oxford comma, good television shows that get canceled, dog breed discrimination, and much MUCH more (I'm lookin' at you, TikTok).

The premiere episode of a new format we're calling Respect the Connect. Our guest is UUSM member Desiree LaBeaud, a pediatric infectious disease specialist and epidemiologist, and the co-founder of HERI Kenya. She shares how HERI Kenya came to be and her passion for the work in which she is engaged. Listen and learn.

For more information about HERI Kenya, visit heri-kenya.org.

My guest is Gabby Hartman in this "get to know a member" podcast. UUSM is so lucky to have Gabby!

My guest is Fran Lowe. Fran shares stories of her career at IBM, her UU congregation in Maryland, how she met Phil, and lots more.

Our third season of the UUSM Connections Podcast is the Heritage Series. If you’re a regular listener, then you know that the Connections Podcast usually focuses on the individual people who are part of the UUSM Community. The Heritage Series is different in that the focus is on the history of UUSM through the lens of the individual people who have the most history at UUSM. Our Transition Team wrote the questions that I will be asking and the questions will be the same for every person who is interviewed as part of the Heritage Series. My guests today are Tom and Johannah Newman.

This is the last episode of the Heritage Series. Next week, we will return to the regular UUSM Connections Podcast.
