He made a striking Off-Broadway playwriting debut with “Dark Disabled Stories” at The Public Theater, which enjoyed a sold-out, extended run and earned him the Obie Award for Best New American Play.

You might know this week's guest, Tracy E. Gilchrist, as "the queen of queer media" or simply "the holding space lady." She reached internet fame last year when her interview with Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande went viral during the Wicked press tour. But it goes without saying that Tracy is a whole person, who has lived a whole life, outside of that one video. Tracy has worked in queer media since the 90s - specifically covering queer entertainment and pop culture news for outlets like The Advocate and Out Magazine. We discuss how she ended up in this position of having basically interviewed every queer-adjacent person in Hollywood, first crushes / kisses / girlfriends, and the lesbian pop culture moments that shaped us. In Act II, we break down her viral moment and everything that comes along with that. Who had she seen holding space for the lyrics of defying gravity? When did she first clock the finger-hold? What does she really think of Ariana and Cynthia, and have they exchanged words since? We get into it...

Guest writer to Out Magazine, Jeff McMullen, argues this it is time to ditch the ever expanding and often confusing LGBTQ+. We agree, but not sure we like his suggested moniker. Then, an Atlanta Pastor, Jamal Bryant, is calling for a 40-day black economic boycott of Target due to their reversal on DEI initiatives. Finally, some bodegas in NYC are selling “loosies,” but with a twist and not the single cigarettes we associate with the name. Single eggs are the new “loosies” due to the increasing cost of a dozen eggs pushing ten bucks!

Grab your high-heel hiking boots, babes - we have the QUEEN of the outdoors, Pattie Gonia! JVN & Pattie sit down for a good ole pre-election kiki to talk all about the queer the outdoors, Pattie's drag origin story, and the sad but true degree of separation - their surprising duo appearance in a Trump campaign advertisement. Y'all, you have to hear it to believe it! Pattie Gonia is a critically acclaimed drag queen, environmentalist and musician. To date, Pattie's community is more than 1,000,000 people strong. Pattie is also the co-founder of the Outdoorist Oath- a non-profit that gets BIPOC, LGBTQIA+ and femmes into the outdoors through community and education. Recently, Pattie founded the Queer Outdoor and Environmental Job Board - a free tool queer individuals can use to get hired and therefore diversify the fields. Together with her community, they've collectively fundraised over $2.5 million dollars for LGBTQIA+, BIPOC and environmental non-profits, completed thousands of miles of hiking and backpacking and raised awareness about the ongoing environmental crisis through their film projects like Won't Give Up, Birds Tell Us & Everything to Lose. In 2024, Pattie was named in OUT MAGAZINE's OUT 100 PEOPLE. Pattie's drag itself is a personal journey of self identity, sustainability, and queering traditional masculine outdoor narratives to explore the natural world.

Travel books help us imagine ourselves in new places, but until recently, most books didn't offer specific travel guidance for LGBTQIA+ travelers beyond what felt like the compulsory section on nightlife and local safety concerns. And regardless of sexuality, not everyone wants to go to a rave at 2am--some travelers would much rather go antiquing. With 120 destinations, OUT IN THE WORLD https://tinyurl.com/3znkampe is an impressive assemblage of places to go and things to do for everyone from birdwatchers to bibliophiles. (Attention book lovers: the authors managed to find what feels like every remaining local bookstore on their destination list and include them here, for which alone this is a fantastic resource.) Authors Amy B. Scher https://amybscher.com/and Mark Jason Williams https://www.markjasonwilliams.com/ draw on their deep love of travel (Sher's first book was a memoir dedicated to the transformative and healing power of travel, and Williams is a travel writer for the New York Times, Out Magazine, and others) and a desire to help others discover inclusive destinations. This conversation covers travel, how OUT IN THE WORLD came together, the importance of a fantastic book proposal, and what to expect when co-authoring a project.

On January 21, 2017, a day after the inauguration of former President Donald Trump, activist and journalist Raquel Willis approached the podium at the inaugural Women's March in Washington, D.C. to share her story at what became one of the largest single-day marches in U.S. history. With this momentous platform, Willis was determined to galvanize the crowd to support liberation for all women, namely Black trans women like herself. Not even three minutes into her speech, after calling out the erasure of trailblazing women of color from feminist history, Willis' microphone was cut off. Unfortunately, this silencing was something that she knew all too well through her work in supposedly progressive movements and newsrooms. This experience only fueled her fire to make intersectionality the baseline of all liberation efforts. Willis has made waves in her work as the former executive editor of Out Magazine and national organizer for the Transgender Law Center, demonstrating her dedication to uplifting the voices of transgender people of color. In her new memoir, “The Risk It Takes To Bloom: On Life and Liberation,” her voice takes center stage. The book explores Willis' history and journey with identity, education, grief, community, and remembrance. Her recount honors not only her past and present, but that of the trans community worldwide. Today, Willis joins us to shed light on her story and vision for the future of liberation.

“Well, the interesting thing is, I guess some of this came from writing the book too, but all of those versions of me live inside of me, right? Even the kid that was, you know, forced to kind of navigate the world as a boy and all of these different things, like that kid is still inside of me, right? The teenager slash young adult who was gay, just like regular gay, boring gay, boring gay now, it wasn't boring gay then, lives inside of me. That trans woman, at the start of my adulthood who felt like she had to live up to so many of these ideals of womanhood, you know, she lives inside of me too.” So says Raquel Willis, a Black trans activist who just released a debut memoir, The Risk it Takes to Bloom: On Life and Liberation. Her book traces her evolution—from her childhood in Georgia, through her multiple coming out experiences, or unfoldings, as the title of her book suggests. Willis has served as the director of communications for Ms. Foundation for Women, executive editor of Out Magazine, and a national organizer for Transgender Law Center. She also co-founded Transgender Week of Visibility and Action and currently serves as an executive producer for iHeartMedia's Outspoken and the president of the Solutions Not Punishments Collaborative's executive board, and is a WNBA Social Justice Council member. Our conversation today isn't really about her accolades, it is, to quote her, more existential: We explore whether our souls are gendered, what it means to perform or play with femininity, and why sexual violence against women and girls affects us all. Let's turn to our conversation now.

So, okay; here's the deal: we talked SO much when we recorded Nicole's farewell episode that we ended up cutting almost half an hour from the version that we released last week (classic #workwives!). We ultimately decided that this particular twenty-four minute chunk didn't serve the true purpose of that ep - which was celebrating Nicole, our partnership, and the version of the pod that is "Coming Out with Lauren & Nicole" - but we also felt that the tangential discussion we'd had was important enough to release on its own as this bonus mini-episode. Plus, Nicole wouldn't be Nicole if she didn't leave without a dash of CONTROVERSY! Please enjoy the following completely unedited, *heated* conversation, and remember: it's okay if we disagree!The Out Magazine article we discuss (that we keep mistakenly referring to as an "interview;" oops!) can be found here: https://www.out.com/gay-news/jasmin-savoy-brown-lesbian. At least Lauren got the author right!This show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/5207650/advertisement

Stacey Stevenson dropped out of a rural high school in the South when they were pulled out of the closet. They worked at fast food restaurants to save enough money to move to Dallas to "do something with their life" because they were intent on making it in the corporate world. Stacey achieved just that with a long history of senior defense, technology, and finance roles. But in 2021, they turned their business acumen, lived experience, and passion to work for LGBTQ+ families and those who wish to form them. As the first Black Chief Executive Officer at Family Equality, Stacey is a trailblazing leader, selected as one of Out Magazine's Out100 list — a compilation of the year's most impactful and influential LGBTQ+ people — in the fall of 2022. Stacey has already ushered Family Equality through a tremendous chapter of growth. From expanding the organization's work to protect LGBTQ+ youth and families in schools to deepening the focus on lowering barriers to parenthood in our community, they have prioritized not only advancing lived and legal equality for LGBTQ+ families but also advancing racial and social justice for BIPOC communities, those living in rural areas, and those living at or below the poverty line. And they are just getting started.  A powerful speaker and motivator, Stacey regularly shares their experiences growing up LGBTQ+ in the rural South, being pulled out of the closet, and navigating life as a Black queer parent. Stacey's advocacy has helped propel Family Equality further into the national spotlight with multiple appearances on The Sunday Show with Jonathan Capehart, a bipartisan panel discussion hosted at the U.S. Capitol, collaborations with movement partners, countless speaking engagements, and media appearances including an op-ed in USA TODAY. In the op-ed, Stacey shared their family's story of moving from their home state of Texas in search of a more welcoming community. Stacey, wife Cheralyn, and 8-year-old twin boys, Duke and London, enjoy the life they are building in Washington, D.C. In this episode, Stacey shares their journey, which is, at times, heartbreaking but equally inspiring. We discuss their work and mission at Family Equality, the importance of being an ally, and why people cancel themselves when they don't speak up for their beliefs. We dive into work-life balance, mindful Mondays, ruthless prioritization, how they leveraged transferable skills to crush an interview for a job they had no experience in, and so much more.

My guest today is Ricky Cornish from OUT Magazine!We kick things off with the unraveling relationship between Shannon and John, underscored by that painfully awkward conversation about cohabitation. As we predicted, their love story is heading for a downfall, but it's the Nobu dinner where the real fireworks start. Could this be the start of a full-blown feud?We then switch gears and focus on the eye-catching dynamics between Gina, Jennifer, and Heather.For more:upandadamlive.com Learn more about your ad choices.

My guest today is Ricky Cornish from OUT Magazine.  We discuss Heather's advice to Gina, pondering if it is prudent for new relationships but maybe misguided for Gina and Travis.Wondering why Heather, Vicky, and Kelly's partying antics seem so different? We've got some thoughts! The second half of our chat swings towards the energy of Tamara handling Jen and Ryan's conversation, Gina's enlightening interview, and the triumphant restoration of the OC show to its former glory by the powerhouse ladies.

On this week's episode, hosts Tre'vell Anderson and jarrett hill make a call back to Tre'vell's Dis/Honrable Mention of Ncuti Gatwa's British Vogue's Pride Issue feature in Ep #174. In the issue, Gatwa claims he chooses not to label himself as queer, which poses the question: has Pride rebranded (again) to fit those who do not identify as queer?But first, jarrett and Tre'vell discuss the state of employment, or rather unemployment, in media considering the rise of publication layoffs, like Buzzfeed News with 15% staff layoffs and Insider with 10%, just this past April. With many more platforms following the same trend, the future of journalism looks uncertain. And later, we get a history lesson on the very first Queen of Drag.Mentioned In The EpisodeNcuti Gatwa in the Pride Issue of British VogueSmithsonian Magazine, William Dorsey Swann, the First Self - Proclaimed “Queen of Drag”We See Each Other: The PodcastDIS/Honorable Mentions jh:DM: Amy Schumer's new Netflix special “Emergency Contact”HM: Aisha Harris's new book “Wannabe: Reckonings With The Pop Culture That Shapes Me”TAHM: Peacock original film,  Praise ThisOur Sponsors This WeekWild GrainWild Grain is the first-ever, bake-from-frozen subscription box for sourdough breads, fresh pastas, and artisanal pastries.For a limited time, FANTI listeners can get $30 off their first box, plus free croissants in every box with their subscription.To get this offer, go to: Wildgrain.com/FANTI.
