Jonathan Bennett & Jaymes Vaughn Introduce Their New LGBTQ+ Podcast
Mean Girls alum Jonathan Bennett and cohosted by his husband, TV host Jaymes Vaughn.The podcast, appropriately named Pridecast, is a new iHeart Radio project in collaboration with Los Angeles Pride. The series is here to expand Pride from just being a singular event or month to something year-round that people can find comfort and support in.The show pulls inspiration from the LGBTQ+ community, sharing impactful stories to educate and inspire; it’s not a show where celebrities come only to talk about their latest projects, according to Bennett and Vaughn.“We just really wanted to find a place for the LGBTQI+ community to come and just be celebrated and empowered,” Bennett tells The Advocate.Vaughn says that in the world today, while we need to keep informed about the anti-LGBTQ+ legislation being passed and other similar news, there also needs to be support and encouragement.
