I loved everything about this podcast from the intro music and purpose statement at the beginning to the five questions at the end of every episode and everything in between. In multiple episodes Kate and Maggie speak of teachers that want to make LGBTQ inclusion a part of their learning environment but fear they can’t. I felt like they were speaking right to me. Each episode made me reflect on myself as an educator and the classroom space I create for my students and their families. If you feel the climate of your community limits your ability to be an outspoken ally, this podcast offers you small tokens of advice that will leave you inspired, hopeful, and motivated.

Thank you for the very important work you are doing. Thank you for helping well intentioned but still learning teachers like me.

Thank you, Kate, Maggie and your awesome edu-guests! I'm a mom, an educator, a citizen. And I know it's important for me to be a learner, too. As I listen to Kate & Maggie and their dynamic and honest guests, I've built up more knowledge about the LGBTQ community AND heard ideas about how I can be a braver upstander for queer kids, teachers and community members -- work we need to do to have healthy world. AND -- I love the 5 questions feature at the end of each episode.

So very important. Thank you for bringing light to these issues in such an engaging way!

As a gay educator in a conservative part of the country, I often feel alone. This podcast reminds me I am not alone in this journey. It simultaneously highlights allies, our hopes, and our future, and sheds light on important things we can all do to make this a more inclusive world for each of us!

One of the reasons I became a teacher was, no is, learning fascinates me. 36 years and it's no different except my awareness of learning has been channeled toward understanding and supporting all people must include the LGBTQ+ community both academically and politically. Kate and Maggie are as wise in these podcasts as I have always found them to be in helping me teach literacy in thoughtful ways. I am humbled by their intelligence, thoughtful examples, and grace.

Incredibly powerful conversations with inspiring educators. Maggie and Kate are amplifying voices and stories to help us reach all of our students, see all of our colleagues, and push us to live in and out of the classroom openly and authentically.

I cannot find the words to express how important this podcast is for educators. Kate and Maggie feel like new friends that I can relate to on so many levels. It feels so empowering to be represented by like-minded educators who are focused on creating classrooms that are safe and inclusive for all students where everyone is represented. They introduce me to someone new every week that I immediately follow and twitter and continue to learn from and from whom I also find inspiration and important resources. As a teacher, a lesbian, a mother, and an advocate for any student voices that are marginalized, I cannot begin to stress the importance of this type of podcast.

Thank you for creating this podcast where LGBTQ+ educators can listen and feel seen. Your guest interviews are always interesting. Kate and Maggie are fun to listen to and my current favorite gay icons!

This podcast really addresses issues that members of the LGBTQ community face. It also give allies something to think about as we support people we love. I encourage anyone who wants to learn in a safe environment and who has an open mind to subscribe.

These podcasts are fabulous. Thank you so much for sharing with the world!

Anyone who cares about kids & teaching needs to listen to this! It's time to expand our world so we can understand theirs.

I look forward to this podcast. It is a window to help me understand and learn about how to best support my colleagues and students. This is on the recommended list for my pre-service teachers.

I learn so much every time I listen to this podcast. There is so much here to think about. I also appreciate the humor and the final five questions. Thanks for creating this.

I learn so much from this podcast each time I listen.

This podcast does a deep dive into important and relevant work that’s crucial to our society and schools. The platform is an audible safe space filled with insightful conversation and amazing perspectives. I look forward to all of it.

Kate and Maggie are naturals at this! I can’t wait to see where this goes because it is essential to have forms of media that focus on diverse topics. They have already touched on a topic that normally wouldn’t be discussed on a podcast and they did a great job. Keep the podcasts coming!

I am a fifth grade teacher and a few years ago I asked my principal if I could start sharing some videos with my students of lgbtq teens sharing there experiences and she thought my students were too young. I have only watched one episode so far and there were great suggestions that no one could object to. Everyone should listen and continue the conversation.

Enlightening to hear different perspectives and help create a welcoming classroom environment.

I love this show! The conversations are deeply insightful over such a small amount of time. I learn something new each time.
