A man checks into a Kansas City hotel under a false name. Days later, he's found bound, beaten, and barely alive, alone in a locked room. No fingerprints. No weapon. And no one who admits to knowing him.In 1935, a mysterious guest calling himself “Roland T. Owen” arrived at the President Hotel. Staff noted his odd behavior: few possessions, drawn shades, and whispered phone calls to unseen figures. When he was discovered near death in Room 1046, the truth became even stranger. Who was he? Why did he lie about his name? And how did a case filled with blood, secrecy, and coded messages connect to the hidden world of queer life in Depression-era America? Nearly a century later, the death of Artemus Ogletree remains one of the most haunting unsolved LGBTQ+ mysteries in true crime history.Hosted by Jordi and Brad, Beers With Queers brings chilling crimes, queer stories, and twisted justice to light—all with a cold one in hand.Press play, grab a drink, and join us as we uncover the darkest corners of LGBTQ+ history.

taronges, i l'aire fresc invitava a caminar per aquell carrer tan conegut.En: The trees displayed yellow and orange colors, and the fresh air invited a walk along that well-known street.Ca: Entre turistes i venedors, hi havia Jordi, un noi jove i despreocupat que adorava els animals.En: Among tourists and vendors, there was Jordi, a carefree young guy who loved animals.Ca: Aquell dia, pensava participar en una desfilada per celebrar el Dia Mundial dels Animals.En: That day, he planned to participate in a parade to celebrate World Animal Day.Ca: Amb un somriure a la cara, Jordi es movia entre la multitud buscant l'inici del que ell creia que era una festa d'animals.En: With a smile on his face, Jordi moved through the crowd looking for the beginning of what he believed was an animal festival.Ca: Portava una gorra amb orelles de gat, un detall que li semblava perfecte per l'ocasió.En: He wore a cap with cat ears, a detail he thought was perfect for the occasion.Ca: De sobte, va veure un grup amb pancartes i va sentir crits d'entusiasme.En: Suddenly, he saw a group with banners and heard enthusiastic shouts.Ca: Sense pensar-s'ho, es va unir al grup, plens de passió i energia.En: Without thinking twice, he joined the group, full of passion and energy.Ca: Al seu costat, Marina i Pau també estaven allà, però amb una missió diferent.En: Next to him, Marina and Pau were also there, but with a different mission.Ca: Ells sabien que es tractava d'una protesta política, però van veure la il·lusió de Jordi i no el van voler alertar de l'error.En: They knew it was a political protest, but they saw Jordi's excitement and didn't want to alert him to his mistake.Ca: Jordi aplaudia i cridava sense saber exactament què deien els lemes, però estava convençut que era tot per una bona causa.En: Jordi clapped and shouted without knowing exactly what the slogans were about, but he was convinced it was all for a good cause.Ca: Mentre avançaven pels carrers, les seves gesticulacions exagerades i els seus crits plens d'entusiasme van començar a atreure l'atenció dels altres manifestants.En: As they moved through the streets, his exaggerated gestures and enthusiastic shouts began to attract the attention of the other protestors.Ca: Malauradament, el seu divertit equívoc es feia cada cop més evident.En: Unfortunately, his amusing misunderstanding was becoming more apparent.Ca: Els organitzadors es van fixar en ell i, creient-lo un líder enèrgic, el van convidar a pujar a un escenari improvisat.En: The organizers noticed him and, thinking he was an energetic leader, invited him to step onto an improvised stage.Ca: Jordi va acceptar l'oportunitat amb encant, pensant que finalment havia estat reconegut per la seva passió pels drets dels animals.En: Jordi accepted the opportunity with charm, thinking he was finally being recognized for his passion for animal rights.Ca: Quan va pujar, es va adonar de la serietat del moment.En: Once he got up, he realized the seriousness of the moment.Ca: Es trobava davant d'un públic esperant un discurs significatiu.En: He found himself in front of an audience expecting a meaningful speech.Ca: Amb el cor

respecte, cosa que tothom va entendre i aplaudir.En: He started by saying that animals deserve love and respect, something everyone understood and applauded.Ca: Quan va intentar lligar això amb la causa política, els seus mots es van convertir en un divertit caos.En: When he tried to tie this to the political cause, his words turned into a funny chaos.Ca: Les expressions confoses i les rialles dels assistents el van fer adonar-se que estava molt lluny de la realitat del moment.En: The confused expressions and laughter of the attendees made him realize he was far from the reality of the moment.Ca: Finalment, va cloure simplement: "Donem-nos suport els uns als altres, siguin persones o animals!En: Finally, he simply concluded: "Let's support each other, whether we are people or animals!"Ca: " Aquella innocència va guanyar el cor de la gent, que va trencar a aplaudir amb alegria.En: That innocence won the hearts of the people, who burst into joyful applause.Ca: Després de baixar, Marina i Pau el van felicitar.En: After stepping down, Marina and Pau congratulated him.Ca: Jordi es va adonar que s'havia ficat en una situació inesperada, però també va veure que, amb el seu discurs, havia aconseguit unir a la gent encara que fos involuntàriament.En: Jordi realized he had gotten himself into an unexpected situation, but he also saw that, with his speech, he had managed to unite people even if unintentionally.Ca: A mesura que s'allunyava, es va prometre prestar més atenció a les coses que l'envoltaven, sabent que el primer pas per tenir un impacte és entendre realment el que està passant.En: As he walked away, he promised himself to pay more attention to the things around him, knowing that the first step to making an impact is truly understanding what is going on.Ca: Així, el noi somiador que va fer riure a tothom va marxar de Las Ramblas amb un nou compromís cap a causes que van molt més enllà del que aparenten a primera vista.En: Thus, the dreamy boy who made everyone laugh walked away from Las Ramblas with a new commitment to causes that go far beyond what they seem at first glance.Ca: Aquell dia, ell no només havia participat en una protesta –havia après una valuosa lliçó de vida.En: That day, he had not only taken part in a protest—he had learned a valuable life lesson.

safrà, aquella especia daurada, començava a desaparèixer de les parades.En: He saw that saffron, that golden spice, was starting to disappear from the stalls.Ca: Era un dels elements clau per al seu plat, i sense ell, hauria de pensar en alternatives.En: It was one of the key elements for his dish, and without it, he would have to think of alternatives.Ca: De sobte, Jordi va veure el darrer

altre cuiner, amb la mateixa pressa, estenia la mà per agafar-lo.En: Another chef, in the same hurry, was reaching out to grab it.Ca: La tensió es podia sentir en l'aire, mentre Jordi i l'altre cuiner es miraven.En: The tension was palpable in the air as Jordi and the other chef looked at each other.Ca: “Necessito aquest safrà per a un àpat especial,” va dir Jordi, amb un to persuasiu però decidit.En: "I need this saffron for a special meal," said Jordi, with a persuasive yet determined tone.Ca: El cuiner rival va somriure, reconeixent la passió en els ulls de Jordi.En: The rival chef smiled, recognizing the passion in Jordi's eyes.Ca: Finalment, va cedir.En: Finally, he relented.Ca: “Endavant, amic.En: "Go ahead, friend.Ca: Que el teu plat sigui un èxit,” va dir, alliberant el paquet.En: May your dish be a success," he said, releasing the packet.Ca: Amb el safrà a les mans, Jordi va sentir una ona de relleu.En: With the saffron in his hands, Jordi felt a wave of relief.Ca:

A boy in fairy wings. A man in tailored velvet. Enough dead Nazis to warrant a sable coat. And a life lived defiantly against the rules of an empire.Neil Munro “Bunny” Roger was born into wealth and tradition in early 20th-century Britain, but he refused to let either dictate who he was. A couturier, performer, and unapologetically queer figure, Bunny's life is a story of spectacle and survival, where fashion became both shield and sword. His defiance against rigid gender norms turned him into a legend, though history nearly buried his name. In this episode, we step into the hidden world of queer history and uncover how Bunny Roger's art, scandal, and visibility reshaped what it meant to live openly—long before it was safe to do so.Hosted by Jordi and Brad, Beers With Queers brings chilling crimes, queer stories, and twisted justice to light—all with a cold one in hand.Press play, grab a drink, and join us as we uncover the darkest corners of LGBTQ+ history.

Transcript:Ca: El paisatge de tardor envoltava la masia de pedra antiga amb arbres de roure plens de colors càlids.En: The autumn landscape surrounded the old stone masia, with oak trees full of warm colors.Ca: Era el dia de la calçotada anual de la família, un esdeveniment que els cosins esperaven amb impaciència.En: It was the day of the family's annual calçotada, an event the cousins eagerly anticipated.Ca: Les taules eren llargues, cobertes amb estovalles de quadres vermells i plenes de rialles i xivarri.En: The tables were long, covered with red checkered tablecloths and filled with laughter and chatter.Ca: Però Laia tenia un objectiu clar aquella tarda.En: But Laia had a clear objective that afternoon.Ca: —Aquest any guanyaré el concurs de calçots!En: "This year I'll win the calçots competition!"Ca: — va dir amb decisió, mentre mirava els preparatius.En: she said with determination as she watched the preparations.Ca: Marc, el seu cosí competitiu, no podia evitar somriure amb superioritat.En: Marc, her competitive cousin, couldn't help but smile with superiority.Ca: —Ja veurem, Laia.En: "We'll see, Laia.Ca: Ha ha!En: Ha ha!"Ca: — responia Marc mentre posava els calçots a la graella.En: replied Marc as he placed the calçots on the grill.Ca: Mentre els fums del foc s'alçaven lentament, un gir inesperat va marcar el començament dels desastres.En: As the smoke slowly rose from the fire, an unexpected turn marked the beginning of the disasters.Ca: La graella, mal col·locada, es va tombar de cop, fent caure els calçots a terra.En: The grill, poorly placed, suddenly tipped over, causing the calçots to fall to the ground.Ca: Els crits d'alarma van ressonar, i la rivalitat entre Laia i Marc es va deixar de banda per un moment.En: Alarms rang out, and the rivalry between Laia and Marc was set aside for a moment.Ca: —Quin desastre!En: "What a disaster!"Ca: — es va lamentar Jordi, el tercer cosí, amb una rialla irònica.En: lamented Jordi, the third cousin, with an ironic laugh.Ca: Però allò no era tot.En: But that wasn't all.Ca: Poc després, van adonar-se que algú havia pres un sac de calçots.En: Shortly after, they realized someone had taken a sack of calçots.Ca: Els sospitosos eren la família rival que celebrava la seva pròpia calçotada al poble.En: The suspects were the rival family who were celebrating their own calçotada in the village.Ca: Laia, veient que no guanyaria sense els calçots, va prendre una decisió agosarada.En: Laia, seeing she wouldn't win without the calçots, made a bold decision.Ca: —Marc, necessito que em facis costat— va demanar Laia, posant de banda la seva rivalitat momentània.En: "Marc, I need you to back me up," she asked, momentarily putting aside their rivalry.Ca: —Perfecte!En: "Perfect!Ca: Anem a buscar els nostres calçots!En: Let's go get our calçots!"Ca: — va acceptar Marc amb un somriure còmplice.En: Marc agreed with a conspiratorial smile.Ca: Així que, esquivant la vigilant mirada de la seva avia, van córrer cap a la casa del costat.En: So, dodging the watchful eye of their grandmother, they ran to the neighboring house.Ca: Era una operació per recuperar el botí.En: It was an operation to reclaim the loot.Ca: Les rialles es van barrejar amb l'adrenalina mentre entraven al jardí dels veïns.En: Their laughter mixed with adrenaline as they entered the neighbors' garden.Ca: Finalment, amb el sac de calçots a les mans, van fugir sota el cel ennuvolat mentre la família rival protestava sorollosament.En: Finally, with the sack of calçots in hand, they fled under the cloudy sky as the rival family protested loudly.Ca: De retorn a la seva pròpia festa, Laia i Marc van ser rebuts amb aclamacions.En: Returning to their own party, Laia and Marc were greeted with cheers.Ca: La competició continuava, i enmig de l'emoció i el descontrol, Laia va guanyar el noble títol de Reina dels Calçots.En: The competition continued, and amid the excitement and chaos, Laia won the noble title of Queen of the Calçots.Ca: —Has guanyat justament, Laia— va admetre Marc, aquesta vegada amb un somriure sincer.En: "You've won fair and square, Laia," admitted Marc, this time with a sincere smile.Ca: Laia, somrient mentre feia un brindis amb Marc i Jordi, va comprendre que, malgrat tot, allò que realment importava era estar junts, rient dels petits desastres familiars.En: Laia, smiling as she toasted with Marc and Jordi, realized that, despite everything, what truly mattered was being together, laughing at the small family disasters.Ca: Els vincles són més forts quan es compartia un moment així, i Laia ho va agrair des del cor.En: Bonds are stronger when a moment like this is shared, and Laia was grateful from the heart.Ca: I així, la calçotada va continuar fins que la llum del dia es va apagar lentament, amb el sabor dels calçots que omplia l'aire d'una dolça festa.En: And so, the calçotada continued until the day's light slowly faded, with the flavor of calçots filling the

A woman's desperate screams. 38 people witness a woman being attacked on the street. No one intervenes allowing an attack to go on for 40 minutes, ultimately leading to murder. In March 1964, Kitty Genovese was attacked just steps from her New York apartment. Reports claimed thirty-eight witnesses saw or heard parts of the assault, and yet no one intervened. Kitty was more than a headline, she was a 28-year-old bartender, daughter, sister, and a lesbian quietly building a life with the woman she loved. But her death became one of the most infamous tragedies in queer history, not only for the brutality of the crime, but for what it revealed about society's indifference. In this episode, we examine the myths, the truths, and how the case shaped both the criminal justice system and the narrative of LGBTQ+ lives in danger.Hosted by Jordi and Brad, Beers With Queers brings chilling crimes, queer stories, and twisted justice to light, all with a cold one in hand.Press play, grab a drink, and join us as we uncover the darkest corners of LGBTQ+ history.

Hace un par de semanas debutaba por aquí un fotógrafo nuevo en el podcast y hoy lo hace otro. Se trata de Jordi Coy, @astrocoy en Instagram.  Me gusta entrevistar a gente nueva en el podcast para no perder el hilo a lo que hay fuera, a los fotógrafos que están innovando y a los que están presentes en lugares como el Canarias Photo & Video Festival donde estará mi invitado de hoy.  Os recomiendo ver la entrevista que brilla por su frescura, su buen ambiente y el humor de Jordi.  ¡Dentro podcast!

Oriol asked, his heart racing.Ca: "Un artefacte amb inscripcions estranyes... encara l'estem analitzant", va dir Laia.En: "An artifact with strange inscriptions... we are still analyzing it," Laia said.Ca: "Però és més que una peça de la història; podria canviar el que sabem sobre Barcelona".En: "But it is more than just a piece of history; it could change what we know about Barcelona."Ca: Mentrestant, Jordi, el comerciant d'antiguitats, observava des de prop.En: Meanwhile, Jordi, the antique dealer, watched closely.Ca: Aparentava interès acadèmic, però feia temps que seguia les pistes de legends antigues.En: He feigned academic interest but had long been following the clues of ancient legends.Ca: "Esta relíquia podria tenir valors immaterials inestimables", va dir Jordi amb un somriure misteriós.En: "This relic could have invaluable immaterial values," Jordi said with a mysterious smile.Ca: "Potser no pertany a cap museu, potser és millor entre les ombres".En: "Perhaps it does not belong in any museum; maybe it is better left in the shadows."Ca: Laia va interrompre: "Aquestes descobertes pertanyen al món, a la nostra cultura".En: Laia interrupted: "These discoveries belong to the world, to our culture."Ca: Oriol estava lluitant amb una decisió difícil.En: Oriol was struggling with a difficult decision.Ca: El seu desig d'obtenir reconeixement acadèmic l'impulsava a divulgar el descobriment.En: His desire for academic recognition drove him to disclose the discovery.Ca: Però sabia que podia fer més mal que bé.En: But he knew it could do more harm than good.Ca: La nit de la Festa Major, sota una lluentor de focs artificials, van desxifrar una inscripció invisible a l'artifact.En: The night of the Festa Major, under the glow of fireworks, they deciphered an invisible inscription on the artifact.Ca: Revelava secrets que podrien alterar les arrels de la historia catalana.En: It revealed secrets that could alter the roots of the Catalan history.Ca: Oriol va respirar profundament.En: Oriol took a deep breath.Ca: "Podem presentar-ho als líders de la cultura", suggerí Laia.En: "We can present it to the cultural leaders," suggested Laia.Ca: Però Oriol, ara conscient de les seves intencions, va dir: "No. Protegim el secret. La història és més gran que nosaltres".En: But Oriol, now aware of his intentions, said, "No. We protect the secret. History is greater than us."Ca: Jordi va assentir, malbaratant els seus propòsits avars. "Sens dubte, a vegades els misteris han de romandre intactes".En: Jordi nodded, abandoning his greedy ambitions. "Indeed, sometimes mysteries must remain untouched."Ca: Oriol va sentir una pau interna, una calma nova.En: Oriol felt an inner peace, a new calm.Ca: Havia après a valorar la història més enllà dels èxits personals.En: He had learned to value history beyond personal achievements.Ca: Havia comprès que preservar el que és sagrat era el vertader reconeixement.En: He understood that preserving what is sacred was the true recognition.Ca: Amb una decisió sincera, va optar per deixar alguns secrets en silenci, respectant el passat i abraçant el futur.En: With a sincere decision, he chose to leave some secrets in silence, respecting the past and embracing the future.Ca: I així, la Sagrada Família va continuar brillant, un símbol majestuosament present, embolicat de misteris que algun dia, potser, tornarien a revelar-se.En: And so, the Sagrada Família continued to shine, a majestically present symbol, wrapped in mysteries that one day, perhaps, might reveal themselves again.

A late night knock. A false report. An arrest that should never have happened. And a landmark case that would change the lives for millions of queer Americans. What began as a humiliating raid in a small Houston apartment would ignite a legal battle that reshaped queer life in America. In 1998, John Geddes Lawrence and Tyron Garner were dragged from Lawrence's home and charged under a Texas law that criminalized their very existence. They were not activists. They were not politicians. They were ordinary men caught in an extraordinary injustice that exposed how fragile freedom could be when queerness was treated as a crime.This case, Lawrence v. Texas, became a turning point in LGBTQ+ history. It struck at the heart of sodomy laws still on the books in more than a dozen states. In this episode, we trace the humiliating arrest, the years of legal battles, and the cultural shockwaves that followed. The story reveals how one case helped dismantle centuries of stigma and changed the landscape for queer rights in the United States. This is queer history, true crime, and justice colliding in one of the most important cases in American law.Hosted by Jordi and Brad, Beers With Queers brings chilling crimes, queer stories, and twisted justice to light all with a cold one in hand.Press play, grab a drink, and join us as we uncover the darkest corners of LGBTQ+ history.

Una comedia sobre corrupción y amistad que nos presentan su director, Paco Mir, y sus protagonistas, Jordi Boixaderas y Ramón Madaula (autor además del texto).La Navidad está a punto de llegar, y dos amigos se han citado en el Círculo Artístico del pueblo, donde, desde hace años, interpretan Satanás y Arcángel Miquel en Els Pastorets. Este año, quien debía ponerse en la piel de Satanás no podrá hacerlo: acaba de perder un recurso de apelación y debe entrar en prisión. Como favor, pedirá a su gran amigo que cambie de personaje y se convierta en el rey del infierno. Los problemas surgen cuando descubren que a su sustituto le cuesta muchísimo hacer malo y que tendrá que aprender todos los trucos necesarios para despertar la maldad suficiente para ser un buen Satanás.Escuchar audio

quedar-se.En: Marta felt the weight of responsibility and the desire to stay.Ca: Llavors, el seu avi Jordi, com si els hagués escoltat, li va retornar el somriure, amb una lluïssor als ulls que feien

A quiet evening stroll takes a horrifying turn. A beloved teacher and librarian becomes the target of a hate-driven ambush.On June 21, 1985, Toronto school librarian and teacher Kenneth Zeller, a well-liked educator at three schools, was walking to his car after a night with friends when five teenage boys ambushed him in High Park, brutally beating him to death in a homophobic hate crime.

As we explore the aftermath, from legal responses to the community's rallying to remember him as more than a victim. We delve into queer history, systemic intolerance, and the scars these injustices leave behind.Hosted by Jordi and Brad, Beers With Queers brings chilling crimes, queer stories, and twisted justice to light, all with a cold one in hand.Press play, raise a glass, and join us as we honor Kenneth Zeller's memory and confront the shadows of LGBTQ+ history.

Entre todas las teorías científicas, ninguna ha transformado tanto nuestra visión del mundo como la teoría de la evolución. No solo explica cómo funcionan los seres vivos, sino también nuestro propio origen. Desde las primeras intuiciones de naturalistas como Buffon o Lamarck hasta la obra revolucionaria de Darwin con El origen de las especies, la evolución ha estado en constante debate y renovación. El rechazo inicial a la selección natural dio paso, en el siglo XX, a la teoría sintética que unió genética, paleontología y biología, y más tarde a nuevas propuestas como los equilibrios puntuados de Eldredge y Gould. Hoy, la biología molecular, la genética y la teoría de sistemas complejos siguen ampliando sus horizontes. El paleontólogo Jordi Agustí recorre esta apasionante historia en su libro “Las edades de la evolución”. Descubre sus claves y reflexiones en Hablando con Científicos.

A bullet on Ocean Drive. A world-renowned designer. And a murderer who left America terrified and searching for answers.By the summer of 1997, Andrew Cunanan's trail of blood had stretched across the country, but his final act, the assassination of Gianni Versace turned a killing spree into global spectacle. In this episode, we unravel the chaos of the manhunt, the media circus that followed, and the queer identity threads so often erased in the retelling. Why did law enforcement fail to stop him?
