Show Notes

I have the pleasure of having James Rodgers on the podcast. James is not only a dedicated firefighter but also a passionate LGBTQ+ advocate and activist. During our conversation, we delve into his experiences as a gay firefighter, including a candid discussion about the challenges he faced when participating in an online photoshoot to promote LGBTQ+ awareness. James also shares his inspiring journey of becoming a firefighter and how he discovered his true calling, even amidst the emotional loss of his mother, a revelation that came while he was in training. Furthermore, we explore the LGBTQ+ community in depth, addressing the topic of whether the term "queer" is considered offensive.
