Listen this week as I am joined by Lisa from the great NW area of the US! Lisa wrote to me a few months ago and requested this song especially for Pride Month so I knew there was no one better to join me on the show than her! Hear about how GM's music has paved the way for people not only in the LGBTQ movement, but for everyone and what this song especially means about finally being able to drop all the veils and just be yourself.
