Sink your teeth into "The Forbidden Apple": Pride
Welcome to "The Forbidden Apple".
We go where no other podcast has even gone, exploring the complex relationship between queer people and religion. In a world where organized religion does not often embrace queer voices we wanna hear from those pushed to the margins who had to find their own meaning and faith.
