Who Gets To Call You Home (S3 E6)

We wanna hear from you! Text the show HERE

Family shouldn’t be a box you’re forced into; it should be a home you build on purpose. We dig into what “soul kin” really means and why the people who know your weird and love you harder for it become the truest definition of family. From childfree choices and the joyful chaos of dogs, a cat, and a fast-growing corn snake to the friends who pack at 3 a.m., we map out how care, consent, and reliability form the strongest bonds.

We also travel through queer history to honor the caretakers who showed up when institutions failed. The AIDS crisis taught our community how to build networks of love under pressure, with lesbians, activists, and artists stepping up long before official acknowledgment. We talk icons, stigma, and the power of visible allies, then connect those lessons to the way we support each other now. Love that is loud, practical, and consistent is more than a feeling or emotion; it’s infrastructure.

Faith enters the chat, too. We clarify our language, distinguish Christianity from “churchianity,” and share how spiritual harm can push people away from themselves. The conversation holds space for supportive believers while calling out weaponized dogma. Through it all, we return to the same North Star: family is who listens first, asks what you need, and shows up without keeping score.
