Hiiiiiiii. Long time lurker, infrequent poster buttt my name is Taylor and I am a board member of NAGVA (North American Gay Volleyball Association) and another board member and I have started a casual interview series where we bring on current/former LGBTQIA+ volleyball personalities to share their journey, help bring visibility to our community, and to help foster a safer environment for Queer Athletes/Coaches/Officials/etc. So far we've had Jaylen Jasper, Sam Lewis, and yesterday Aiko Jones joined (along with a special appearance from her amazing fiance '!) We have a half dozen more folks on our docket but are always looking for more guests to join us! If you or someone you know would be interested in coming onto IG live for 45ish minute long chat we would love to hear from you! Tyler and I can be reached via email (narvasa@nagva.org or anderson@nagva.org) or by good old IG direct messaging (@heytayrey or @sototallytyler). Check out NAGVA's instagram (@nagvainsta) to see our full interviews and see what the vibe is and we hope to see you on a live call soon! www.instagram.com/tv/CbtNDyrppyi/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link Attachments:

Haleigh was awesome! I loved the outpouring of respect for Italian club teammates/rivals: Ebrar and Wolosz got specifically name-dropped. Also glad to see she's excited about Lanier and wants her in the NT gym!

TayRey any chance you'll be posting this in podcast/audio-only format (e.g. Spotify)? I'd love to give a full listen but Instagram can be a fit finicky if I'm in transit or on the subway.

I missed seeing the start of this thread and am happy to see it. Any chance you can push Outsports on their volleyball coverage? It's thin, to put it politely. 😐

"No need to hire anyone new, just pay me to cover the sport ya'll been slacking on" LOL That's actually not a bad idea, as they of course cover notable athlete coming out stories, but then seem to prefer celebrities, pro-football and pro "wrestling," and not a lot else. |

They recently covered Alfee Reft and the Vanderbilt coach (forgot his name). But they do need to cover the rest because there are quite a few: Carol and Ann, Fabi, Ben Patch, Paola Egonu, Maique Reeis, Douglas, etc. |

I was waiting on the story on Reft and it went up today! YAY! |

Or make a YouTube channel for archiving the videos? Instagram is great for live streams but not so great for subsequent watching in my experience. The interview was great though! |

Can’t wait for the conversation with Haleigh!
