About this listen

Hella Black, Hella Queer, Hella Christian a fully Black, fully Queer, fully Human, fully Divine podcast on society, culture, and other fresh fried nigga shit hosted by cultural thought leader Joseph Benjamin Reaves aka JosephTheyThem . This is a podcast were the faithful can come let their hair down and the church queen who pulls up to church in the same clothes they wore to the club the night before can be their whole selves. The roundtable discussions that this show will feature will run the gamut and will always aim to bring people into the room that may never sit at the same table otherwise. Joseph’s dream for this podcast is to see it catapulted into a nightly talk show bringing together the worlds of literature, music, television, film, stage, academia, and religion in the tradition of classic institutions such as The Dick Cavett Show.
