In this episode we are finishing up the deaths of both of Shelly's parents. Morbid? A little bit. This is part 2 of Shelly's Dad's Funeral. It's kind of surreal that my mom and dad are both gone. Life is...well, surreal. Enjoy!

In this episode, Shelly has to deal with yet ANOTHER Mormon funeral. That makes 3 in about 6 months. She's earned the title of Grim Reaper at this point. Too soon? Eh, sorry. ANYWAY, this is part 1 of 2 of her Dad's funeral. Also, welcome special guest-host Jen, a fellow ex-mo-later-in-life lesbian, as we talk and laugh our way through part 1 of Shelly's Dad's Funeral. Enjoy!

Remember in the last episode when Shelly and Austin were discussing Austin's soon-to-be new dick? Well, this is part two. Enjoy!

In this episode, our good friend Austin Arrowwood is only a few days away from his gender-affirming surgery. You will learn that despite what your ultra-conservative family might tell you, you can't just walk into a clinic, tell them you feel like a boy, and they will staple your new dick on before lunchtime. Lots to learn. Enjoy!

In this episode, Shelly's dad dies. Not literally on the show (that would have been super-weird) but just a few days before this episode was recorded. Plus, Shelly and guest co-host Kirsten get extremely sidetracked with a conversation about karaoke. Also, you will learn about Shelly's brother's magical priesthood ability to "release" dead people from their bodies. I'm not kidding.

More Mormon funeral discussion? Hell yeah. In today’s episode, guest host Kirsten Morgan helps Shelly unpack the rest of her mom’s funeral, and there’s plenty of it. As an added bonus, you will get to hear Shelly’s talk that she gave from the pulpit, in a Mormon chapel, in front of hundreds of Mormons. Did she announce that she is gay? Of course she did. Did the church burn to the ground? Listen up and find out.
