About this episode
They call it, "The Greatest Story Ever Told." But what if it was, "The Gayest Story Ever Told?" Bet you didn't know the Bible has its very own queer history, did you? We certainly hope we offend a few people, but mostly that we bring new meaning to terms like "beloved" and "exceed." Plus, in lieu of food or drinks, Craig and Will tell their very different but uplifting stories/histories of coming out. It's just a big queer episode all around!

About History. Rated R.
Let's be honest. History is full of f*cked up sh*t. But what are we gonna do, pretend like it never happened? Have a drink with your host, actor and writer Will Sterling, and his more qualified former Presidential Speechwriting co-host, Dr. Craig Smith.
