Benjamin Azariah Southworth is a 40-year-old Los Angeles-based podcaster, former Christian television host, and LGBTQ advocate who was arrested on September 3, 2026, on federal charges.
Previously known for hosting the syndicated show The Remix and the podcast Yass, Jesus!, Southworth came out as gay in 2008 and was named one of Instinct Magazine’s “Leading Men” that year.

Status: He was taken into custody at his Westlake, Los Angeles, home and scheduled for arraignment in U.S. District Court in downtown Los Angeles.
