This episode almost didn’t happen. After the shooting of right-wing provocateur Charlie Kirk, I was consumed with grief, rage, and old trauma — especially watching friends grieve for a man who thought people like me were an “abomination.”

It’s shorter than usual, raw, and unfiltered. I talk about:

  • Why this moment nearly broke me
  • Trump’s toxic role in fanning division
  • The strange burden and freedom of atheism
  • Pride and community as small lifelines of hope

It’s not polished. It’s just real.
