The White Lotus and Pray Away

With Toby away on vacation, the crime writers welcome actress and podcaster Janet Varney to the panel.

The Netflix documentary “Pray Away” looks back at the early-adopters of conversion therapy and the advocates who believed in its efficacy...until they didn’t. The film also follows an evangelical who renounced his trans identity and is organizing a political movement for those who identify as “ex-gay.”
