Episode Description

Grief, romance, and a father with a surprising secret — James Patrick Nelson’s award-winning TV pilot For Years to Come dives deep into the messy, beautiful complexity of queer life. In this episode of Happy Healthy Homo, we talk about rewriting queer narratives, balancing joy and trauma on screen, and why telling our own stories matters now more than ever. From the Off-Broadway stage to indie film festivals, James shares his creative journey, the challenges of making authentic queer art, and how embracing his identity changed everything.
