Celebrate Gay (LGBTQI) Pride Every Day in June, 2013, on the SnowbizNow Online Radio Show!

Calling All Queers Worldwide! Speak Your Pride Every Day in June on the SnowbizNow Online Radio Show!

In a honor of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender pride month (June, 2013,) I am devoting daily episodes of my SnowbizNow online radio show (over 1,000,000 listens and counting) to a worldwide celebration for the LGBTQ community and our allies!

We’ve come so far, but we have so far to go. The goal of this month of daily episodes is to collectively share our experience, strength and hope in the struggle, and to grasp more fully as a worldwide community that, while some of us are safe in LGBTQ-friendly communities, most of us are still in great danger if we dare to be simply who we are.

Let’s join together and speak into existence the world as we want it to be!

For all episodes, visit http://www.blogtalkradio.com/snowbiznow. Call in. Skype in. Be a part of the conversation!

Warm Sands Villas Palm Springs: A Gay Men’s Clothing Optional Resort

I was honored to produce this documentary for Matt Lund and Doug Wylie, the then-owners of the Warm Sands Villas, a gay men’s clothing optional resort in Palm Springs, California. The resort became the first-ever advertiser on the SnowbizNow radio show as well, and was sold in the Spring of 2013. I wish the new owners, Mohsen and Ladan, the absolute best of success!

Check out the resort at WarmSandsVillas.com!
