Christine, you know what keeps me up at night?

**Christine Grimaldi** (0:01)
What, Kate?

**Katelyn Burns** (0:02)
I worry a lot about getting older as a queer person.

**Christine Grimaldi** (0:05)
Yeah, that makes getting older even a tougher prospect.

**Katelyn Burns** (0:08)
We're also in this first generation of people who are growing old and being openly gay, or openly queer, or openly trans like I am. But there's this podcast called Silver Linings with The Old Gays that I recently discovered, and it's helping me think a lot about this and feel a lot better about getting older.

**Christine Grimaldi** (0:28)
Yeah, they bear it all. Their coming out stories, the queer icons and artists who shape them, the HIV AIDS crisis, and so much more.

I liked their recent episode called Pride, From Protest to Parade. In that episode, they really reflect on how pride has evolved from resistance and secrecy to celebration, and then share some pretty wild and heartfelt stories from their early experiences.

**Christine Grimaldi** (0:50)
That's really lovely. There's also another episode called Evolving Through the Mess with Brandon Kyle Goodman, which brings in a younger perspective and turns into this really meaningful conversation about identity, growth, and bridging generational gaps. If you're into wellness, personal growth, or just hearing real stories from people who've lived through major cultural shifts, this podcast hits on all of that.

I'm going to play a short trailer now so you can get an idea of their personalities and storytelling style.
