Out and Proud in Left Field

Description
On Episode 6 of Out of The Closet Sports, we are joined by author/illustrator/editor Jonah Newman(@jonahnewmancomics). His new book Out of Left Field arrives March 26 from Andrew McMeel Publishing and is available for preorder now! "A nerdy gay teenager jumps headfirst into the bro-y world of high school baseball in this semi-autobiographical LGBTQ+ graphic novel." We discuss Jonah's experience being gay in the sports world, our common interest in softball, and which of Jonah's many assets first drew me to him. In the homophobic world of professional male sports in this country, Mark Canha is a beacon of inclusivity. And our focus this week is on two college baseball players whose on-field rivalry sparks an off-field romance. So, if you're ready for an entertaining and informative listening experience, join us on "Out of the Closet Sports." We promise to bring you engaging conversations, personal stories, and a fresh perspective on LGBTQ experiences in the world of sports.
