It's the Golden Globe nominated Time Sensitive. We've got a great show for you this week. We are back for Season 8 with what Variety calls, “An ingeniously squirmy and borderline inappropriate ‘bromance.'” We're talking codependence, grief, and discomfort that can point the way to deeper truths. It's a Fight Club meetcute. It's It Takes Two meets Dear Evan Hansen. Is it cruel, or is it kinky? Either way, it's James Sweeney's Twinless.Check us out on...Twitter @TSMoviePodFacebook: Time SensitiveInstagram: @timesensitivepodcastGrab some Merch at TeePublicBig Heads Media 

Send a textVancouver-based photographer and Greasy zine director Sam Olson joins the pod for a deep dive into club culture — past, present, and what's coming next.Sam is the creative force behind Greasy, a Queer and Indigenous fashion, arts, and culture zine, and we bond immediately over a shared obsession with NYC club kids, early club culture, and the DIY worlds that shaped everything we're seeing now. From the raw energy of the early days to how those influences show up in fashion and nightlife today, this conversation is pure cultural memory.We also get into Vancouver's current club scene, who the new IT kids are, what feels exciting (and what feels tired), and how Sam is documenting this moment through photography and publishing. Plus, a look ahead at Sam's upcoming projects and what they're building next.For anyone who cares about nightlife as culture — not just a night out — this one's essential.Support the show

Is Heated Rivalry a BL? Is BL considered queer media? If not, what DOES make something queer media and who gets to decide those requirements?These are just a few of the questions we've seen floating around throughout the Heated Rivalry craze and all of the discourse that has come with it. In this episode, we'll be sharing our thoughts on the question of whether BL is queer media or not. We'll also be talking about the pros and cons of strict division within media and more!Be sure to share your thoughts on this topic with over on our socials!~Come chat with us!X: https://twitter.com/lovecastpodcastInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/lovecastpodcastFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/lovecastpod/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@lovecastpodcastDiscord: https://discord.com/invite/ctQMu7jnFeIf you like our content, we'd love your support!LoveCast Shop: UNDER CONSTRUCTIONPatreon: https://www.patreon.com/lovecastKo-Fi: https://ko-fi.com/lovecastEditor: KaylaSupport this show http://supporter.acast.com/lovecast.

Leanne is a polyamory educator, writer, speaker, certified sex and relationships educator, and trainee psychosexual therapist. Leanne's pronouns are they/she, and they are agender, non-binary, queer, autigender, and a demigirl. Find out what that means to Leanne in this episode.  We also talk about gender roles and expectations in Intimacy and sex, how pronouns may be context-dependent, the freedom that can be found in queer relationships, how sexuality and gender influence each other, claiming our own space with respect for others, and an email we exchanged 4 years ago.  More on www.fiftyshadesofgender.com/leanne

Welcome back to Lez Hang Out, the podcast that needs everyone to drop what they're doing and watch Heated Rivalry right now. This week, co-hosts Leigh (@lshfoster) and Ellie (@elliebrigida) hang out and talk about the worldwide phenomenon that is Heated Rivalry. Whether or not you've actually watched a single episode of the show or read the book the series is based on, you've definitely heard of these gay hockey boys. Queer shows so rarely make it into the mainstream, and Heated Rivalry has managed to do so in a big way. So big in fact that the lead actors, Hudson Williams (Shane) and Connor Storrie (Ilya) were chosen as official torchbearers for the 2026 Winter Olympics opening ceremony! Even NYC mayor Zohran Mamdani has openly promoted the book series, encouraging New Yorkers to stay home and read the romance during the recent major snowstorm. While we wish lesbians could have our own Heated Rivalry moment, we have to admit that we're really loving the show and what it is doing for queer representation, especially in the realm of men's professional sports.  We can't talk about Heated Rivalry without talking about the shadow of homophobia that persists for male athletes, causing most to wait until their professional careers have ended to come out of the closet, if they come out at all. The NHL is actually the only men's pro-league that still has never had a player (current or retired) come out as gay. So, this story centering on gay male hockey players is a really important push for representation in a sport that remains heavily steeped in a culture of homophobia and toxic masculinity. While one viral series isn't going to immediately change that culture, it is impossible to overstate the impact that its massive popularity is having on the sports world. Conservative sports podcaster bros are having to watch the show to discuss it with their listeners, because it has become too huge for even them to ignore. Closeted athletes are being inspired to come out publically following the success of the series, including hockey player Jesse Kortuem who was personally thanked for his bravery by none other than Hudson Williams (Shane) himself. We're amazed seeing all the positive impacts that a series with only 6 episodes has already made in the queer community and beyond and truly cannot wait to see where Season 2 takes us.  Don't forget to show your support for our tiny independent team by shopping small at bit.ly/lezmerch & picking up Lez-ssentials songs on Bandcamp.

Valentine's Day can be beautiful for some — and deeply complicated for others. In this episode, we make space for those who feel unseen, pressured, or left out by traditional narratives of love.We explore why romantic love is often treated as the ultimate measure of worth, how that harms LGBTQ+ people and their families, and what it means to reclaim a broader, more honest definition of love. This is an invitation to opt out of shame, redefine belonging, and remember that your life, your timing, and your way of loving are already enough.Because love was never meant to be narrow — it was meant to make room.Send us a private message. *Note: INCLUDE YOUR EMAIL ADDRESS if you'd like us to answer. :-) Support the show

With so much of the world focused on games right now, it seemed only natural for us to do the same and the results are pure off-the-rails gold. (If they gave medals for going on random tangents, we'd be the competitors to beat.) In this new side quest, we discuss Reigns: The Witcher, the just-announced Witcher mobile game releasing later this month, before we deep dive into all the recent rumors about a possible new Witcher 3 DLC. Could they be true, and if so, what would we like to see? We consider the pros and cons of releasing DLC for a game that's now over a decade old before we wrap up with Valerie's thoughts on The Conqueror's Witcher Virtual Challenge and why she may never make it out of Velen. Oh, and we wind up talking about sex cards. Because of course we do.

She brought you out for boba. But the truth bled through. In this soft-spoken F4F comfort audio, the air is thick with things unsaid. You walk the night market together, quiet laughter, a shared paper charm ritual, a secret ache neither of you knows how to name yet. She's trying to hold the line. You're trying to breathe. And somewhere between paper charms and paper-thin restraint, something begins to shift.

It's been 365 days (and counting) since Inauguration Day. And in that time, queer and trans people's lives have been disrupted through extensive federal orders mandating the end of life-saving research, disruptions to medical care access, sinister soundbites about our mental health and viability as humans, and the reinvention of reality according to the far-right. This multi-episode overview of key moments over the last year provide somber reminders of what we've already been through and rally cries for queer and trans people to lean into lessons already learned to fight back against the faulty idea that you can executive order a community out of existence. Part Two covers April 2025 - August 2025, including the deportation of Andry Hernandez Romero, the life and defiance of Marsha P. Johnson, and the evolution of citizen journalism. Connect with Take the Last Bite on Instagram @take.the.last.bite and TikTok @take.the.last.bite For questions, comments and feedback: takethelastbite@gmail.com

In this episode, Reverend Brandan Robertson joins Sunday School Dropouts for a deeply honest conversation about growing up queer in the church, surviving purity culture, and finding a faith that no longer requires self-erasure. Brandan shares his journey from a fundamentalist Baptist background through Moody Bible Institute, including repeated discipline for asking hard questions and his experience with conversion therapy, and how those moments ultimately pushed him toward a more expansive and life-giving theology.Together, we talk about the so-called “clobber passages,” why they've been misused to police LGBTQ+ people, how purity culture damages everyone it touches, and what it means to experience a kind of second adolescence after leaving religious shame behind. Brandan also reflects on digital ministry, TikTok theology, and the real hope he sees in inclusive faith communities that are thriving even in unlikely places.Share your purity culture stories with us by leaving a voicemail or sending your story to us!This podcast is brought to you by the Center for Trauma Resolution and Recovery: an online trauma coaching company whose practitioners are trauma informed and trauma trained to work with individuals, couples and families who have experienced high control religion, cults, and religious trauma.

LGBTQ+ dating often feels like navigating a smaller dating pool, and many gay men turn to dating apps for connection, dates, and hookups. But constant comparison on these platforms can lead gay men to believe there aren't enough compatible partners, which impacts how we approach gay dating and our own self-worth.In this episode, we're exploring scarcity mindset in gay men, why it shows up so strongly in dating, and how we can break free from it to cultivate healthier, more grounded LGBTQ+ relationships.Related Episodes:Listen to Episode 15.

Send us a textJustin Warfield stops by the show to discuss, Deathrock Devotionals Vol II, inner peace, change in perspective and more. *****After a year of steady build-up, bold reinvention, and dancefloor resurrection, WARFIELD - the darkwave/deathrock project helmed by She Wants Revenge lyricist and frontman Justin Warfield - arrives at a pivotal moment. Today marks the release of Deathrock Devotionals Vol. II (out via Black Heathers/Cleopatra Records), the latest installment in Justin's ongoing love letter to the early Los Angeles deathrock and post-punk scenes that shaped him. Just two weeks later, on November 28, the saga culminates with the release of the full-length album Deathrock Devotionals - an all-encompassing statement piece that merges narrative depth, goth energy, and propulsive hooks into one darkly luminous body of work.“Like its predecessor, Vol. II is a continuation, and remembrance of, the early years of goth and deathrock in Los Angeles,” Justin explains. “I'm taking inspiration from 45 Grave, Super Heroines, Rozz Williams, Patrick Mata - all those people who pioneered this thing that not only lives on, but is thriving so many years later it. I'm just continuing that spirit and making something new, fun, full of energy, and from my point of view.” He continues, “In many ways this project, this band, and this record specifically is really the child of a time in the early '80s in LA when there was a confluence of art-rock punks, East LA punks, Queer culture, late-night diners and after hours, basement shows, dueling live music venues in Chinatown as the epicenter of the scene, and suburban backyard parties. When Hollywood was dangerous and full of possibility, and before the jocks and bros crashed the punk party.”******If you would like to contact the show about being a guest, please email us at Dauna@bettertopodcast.comFollow us on Social MediaInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/author_d.m.needom/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/bettertopodcastwithdmneedomIntro and Outro music compliments of Fast Suzi©2025 Better To...Podcast with D.

This week Bryan has an interesting experience getting a haircut from the same man who originated "The Bryan" during his childhood, and Erin picks up a part time gig at her friend's salon. Bryan discusses the rise in popularity of queer literature, and how demand for titles like Heated Rivalry and Box Hill are leading to increased access and readership at public libraries. Erin tells us how Texas A&M is back in the news this week for dismantling its entire Women's and Gender Studies program after its board changed the syllabus for hundreds of classes and how they're trying to justify their censorship.

Send us a textThis episode of "Not Well" is a brutally honest, stream-of-consciousness conversation about navigating gay life in your 30s with all its contradictions and anxieties. The hosts dive deep into the psychological aftermath of major weight loss, discussing how losing 65-70 pounds has paradoxically made one of them feel less attractive in gay spaces—getting way more attention as a bigger bear than as a slimmer guy. They question whether it's the weight, aging, or just a combination of everything that's changed the dynamic when walking into bars.The conversation spirals through modern absurdities: how delusional confidence seems to be the key to success (citing the Hawk Tuah girl making $15 million), generational differences in handling internet fame, and why their generation can't just embrace the chaos like younger people do. They touch on practical frustrations like airplane etiquette—specifically calling out first-class passengers who put backpacks in overhead bins—and the hilarious reality that TSA agents will move weed gummies aside to check electronics.The episode gets vulnerable discussing body dysmorphia, balding, potential thyroid issues, and the complex relationship with hookup culture. One host reveals he actually needs emotional connection before sex and hates the idea of planned "sex dates," despite being perfectly fine with spontaneous bathroom encounters or random basement hookups. It's a fascinating contradiction that speaks to the difference between performative sexuality and genuine desire.Throughout, there's constant self-awareness about their modest podcast success (hundreds of listeners, not thousands), frustration with social media narcissism, and the ongoing struggle to stay motivated during cold weather. The tone is profane, self-deprecating, and refreshingly authentic—two friends processing their lives out loud without filter.Support the showAs always you can write us at nowellpodcast@gmail.com or call us at ‪(614) 721-5336‬ and tell us your Not Wells of the week InstagramTwitterBobby's Only FansHelp us continue to grow and create amazing content, like a live tour or just help fund some new headphones when needed.

Cet épisode commence dans mon salon, un dimanche, après deux jours passés à écouter à fond tous les titres de disiz.Je parle toute seule et je m'interroge sur les liens entre sa musique - surtout ses deux derniers albums, L'Amour et on s'en rappellera pas - et mon propre parcours de santé mentale.Cet épisode se poursuit dans le studio de Folie Douce, un lundi matin de février.J'ai face à moi une personne ultra sensible capable de relier les points entre l'immense violence du monde actuel et son propre vécu traumatique, un homme qui nomme ce qu'il doit à sa mère, à ses tantes et aux femmes de sa vie, un homme qui parle de ses dépressions et de sa thérapie. Un homme, aussi, qui a lu attentivement À propos d'amour, de bell hooks. Coïncidence ? Je ne crois pas.Parce qu'il était impossible de résister, j'ai glissé à plusieurs moments de l'interview des bribes des chansons de disiz, parce qu'il faut écouter les textes sublimes de celui qui dit « j'ai des blessures cousues de fil d'or » dans La Rosée, premier titre de son dernier album.Ça faisait depuis le tout début de Folie Douce que j'avais envie d'avoir à mon micro cet artiste qui s'est révélé à nous, il y a 25 ans, en nous annonçant qu'il pétait les plombs. J'étais curieuse de l'entendre me parler de sa vie psychique, de sa façon d'écrire, de gérer ses émotions, d'envisager le féminisme, la parentalité et l'exposition médiatique.Ça valait le coup d'attendre.Merci à disiz pour sa confiance, sa sincérité et sa musique.Merci à vous pour votre écoute et votre soutien.N'hésitez pas à partager l'épisode et à mettre des étoiles et des commentaires sur les réseaux sociaux !Prenez soin de vous et prenez votre temps.Photo : Jérémy BeaudetRetrouvez juste ici un formulaire pour m'aider à mieux vous connaître, communauté de Folie Douce !

It's been a remarkable ride, but The Witcher's fourth season has finally reached its end and it's going out with a splash! (As in river water, not whiskey. We're not THAT drunk.) With Geralt and co. looking to cross the Yaruga, we open up a bottle of Flatboat Kentucky Straight Single Barrel Bourbon to help them on their journey. Unlike our favorite witcher, no arrows are shot at us as we discuss the fast-paced finale, not even when we rant about what may be Valerie's least favorite Yen outfit so far, tear into the utterly nonsensical monster fight and roll our eyes at the fact that Nimue is still going on about destiny while possibly traumatizing a child. More positively, we welcome Milva back to the show (seriously, girl, where did you go?), declare our allegiance to Queen Meve and wonder if the Rats should have reconsidered that offer Bonhart made them. It's an unforgettable discussion full of twists, turns and the occasional movie rec, as we say goodbye to our favorite fantasy franchise for another season!

It's been 365 days (and counting) since Inauguration Day. In that time, queer and trans people's lives have been disrupted through extensive federal orders mandating the end of life-saving research, disruptions to medical care access, sinister soundbites about our mental health and viability as humans, and the reinvention of reality according to the far-right. This multi-episode overview of key moments over the last year provide somber reminders of what we've already been through and rally cries for queer and trans people to lean into lessons already learned to fight back against the faulty idea that you can executive order a community out of existence. Part one covers January 2025 - March 2025, including the earliest swarm of executive orders, the impacts on education, and personal revelations about media, journalism, and storytelling.

While drag is a pop culture staple, its roots trace back to the historic Ballroom scene of the 1800s, where Black and Latinx communities built chosen families and celebrated identity through competitive balls. That legacy lives on today through drag performers who embrace fandom and storytelling with humor, heart, and cultural influence.In this episode, Heavens 2 Betsy Stratton, Miss Gay Pennsylvania America 2025, joins us to discuss the intersection of drag, Black queer identity, and the enduring influence of pop culture—including The Golden Girls—on self-expression and community building.Related Episodes:Listen to Episode 109.
