The Gay Podcast for Everyone
When I came out to my family, I was essentially asking them to come on this new journey with me. They were now the family of an LGBTQ+ person, and it was new to all of us.
In this podcast, I chat with parents who chose unconditional love over fear and whose supportive conversations are helping to keep the closet door open. I also chat with folx in my LGBTQ+ community, who share their stories so that parents, families, and friends can listen in and understand the journey more.
You don't have to understand the journey to choose unconditional love, and unconditional love doesn't mean you don't have questions, concerns, or fears. It just means we have to help each other through that conversation. Let's talk about it!

30. Steve Silverman, host of World Gone Good Podcast
Steve Silverman is the host of the World Gone Good podcast, where he talks to everyday people about how they’re making the world a little better and finding the good in it.
Steve is on the podcast today to share his coming out story and his journey with his family.
On this episode, Steve shares:
- How having a sibling who is also gay (and came out before him) created a challenge for his own coming out
- How he considered pretending to be straight because he didn’t want to disappoint his parents
- How his parents had different reactions to each of their kids coming out and how, over time, they were able to repair communication
