The importance of queer spaces, in the wake of a fatal shooting at a Colorado gay bar; author David Sax argues that the future is analog; and journalist Pauline Dakin on a childhood spent on the run

LGBTQ communities are in mourning after five people were killed in a weekend shooting at Club Q, a gay nightclub in Colorado. Matt Galloway talks to Garrett Royer, deputy director of One Colorado, an LGBTQ rights advocacy organization; and Greggor Mattson, a professor and Chair of Sociology at Oberlin College and Conservatory in Ohio, who has studied the role these venues play for queer communities.
Then, some technology companies envision a future where we live increasingly online, but author David Sax argues it’s time to unplug. He tells us about his new book, The Future Is Analog: How to Create a More Human World.
And in her new CBC podcast Run, Hide, Repeat, Pauline Dakin revisits a childhood spent on the run and in hiding with her family — because of a story that wasn’t true. She tells us about the fiction that threw her life upside down, and why, looking back, she doesn't think she'd change a thing.
