We explored how Luis navigated religious shame and balanced healing and loving his family while also being hurt by them.

Jonny and Heather welcome back Dan and Rey, who are visiting Southern Illinois again from Texas. They share their enthsiasm for the queer supporting communities of Southern Illinois and offer some insider perspectives on various political struggles in Texas. The four of them discuss Trumpapalooza, Ken Paxton, James Talarico, Governor Abbot, and the growing hopes that the blue side of purple Texas might make some serious gains in 2026. Along the way, there is also some talk of cryptids, armadillos, improv comedy, hot weather, and lots of woodland adventures.

Liebe Freunde, heute treffe ich Ahmet von IWWIT – ICH WEISS WAS ICH TU, die SBTIQ+ (Schwul, Bi, Trans, Inter, Queer) und MSM (Männer die Sex mit Männern haben) schwule Präventionskampagne der Deutschen Aidshilfe. Unser Thema: GAY CRUISING IN BERLIN und zwar so richtig. Was gibt es zu beachten? Wo kann man in Berlin cruisen? Wie funktioniert das? Was sind absolute No-Go's? Wie macht man(n) es richtig? Wir zeigen uns gegenseitig unserer absoluten Geheimtipps und teilen viele persönlichen Erlebnisse und das ganz ohne Tabus.Besonders spannend fand ich aber auch den Austausch mit Ahmet über die Erfahrung, soweit wie möglich ohne Pronomen zu leben, und über Ahmets Migrationsbiographie.

Jeanette Winterson első regényét szokás a queer irodalom egyik alapművének tekinteni, emellett viszont egy életrajzi elemekből táplálkozó és mágikus elemekkel átszőtt fejlődésregény is, amely egy fiatal lány történetén keresztül mesél az anya-lánya kapcsolatokról és a láthatatlan férfiakról, a közösségről és annak hiányáról, az árulásról és önmagunk megtalálásáról. A nő hétszer sorozat szeptemberi olvasmánya a Nem a narancs az egyetlen gyümölcs. Lány, feleség, anya, szerető, szingli, karrierista, elvált, özvegy, rebellis, alkotó, múzsa. Hányféle szerepet tölthet be egy nő élete során, és mennyiben rajta múlik mindez? Hogyan változnak lehetőségei attól függően, hogy mikor és hova született? És mit árul el mindez a környezetéről, a társadalmáról, illetve a korról, amelyben él és mozog? A nő hétszer című sorozatban Ruff Orsolya és Szeder Kata hét brit klasszikus, illetve kortárs női szerző regényén keresztül beszélget női sorsokról, választásokról, lehetőségekről – és azok korlátairól. A sorozathoz kapcsolódva könyvklub is indul, amelynek a budapesti ISON ad otthont. A nő hétszer témái, olvasmányai, illetve a könyvklubos találkozók időpontjai:   február 25. – Maggie O'Farrell: Hamnet március 25. – Virginia Woolf: Mrs. Dalloway április 22. – Mary Westmacott / Agatha Christie: Távol telt tőled tavaszom május 27. – Daphne du Maurier: A Manderley-ház asszonya szeptember 15. – Jeanette Winterson: Nem a narancs az egyetlen gyümölcs október 13. – Helen Fielding: Bridget Jones naplója november 10. – Zadie Smith: NW A nő hétszer a British Council, a KultúrFlipper és az ISON közös sorozata a budapesti Brit Nagykövetség és a Könyves Magazin támogatásával valósul meg.

Welcome to the longest episode of Queer as Fact yet! In today's podcast we're talking about the author of Dracula, Bram Stoker. Join us to read Bram's intense fanmail to Walt Whitman, discuss his complex relationship with masculinity, and meet a pet monkey. Also featuring a guest star appearance by Oscar Wilde! We'll be following this episode up on the 1st of October with a companion episode on Dracula.

This week, co-hosts Leigh (@lshfoster) and Ellie (@elliebrigida) reminisce about the past ten years, beginning with the airport phone call that started it all.  Lez be honest, it's been an absolute rollercoaster of a decade. Queer media and fandom have changed almost beyond recognition. Weekly releases, longer seasons, queer-focused conventions, sapphic shows, and highly engaged casts once gave fandoms room to grow. It wasn't perfect. Hollywood still loved burying our gays once we got attached; but at least we had them. Now, queer characters are harder to find, seasons are shorter, and if we do get a queer show, there's a good chance it won't even make it to season two.  We have been yelling about the importance of positive LGBTQ+ representation on screen for literally 10 years. If you have been with us from the beginning, we'd love to hear from you!  Find us on Facebook, Youtube, Instagram, Tiktok and Bluesky (@lezhangoutpod) or email us at lezhangoutpod@gmail.com and let us know your favorite (and least favorite) episodes, moments, guests, or events.

In this episode, I sit down with my longtime friend and Iron Feather co-founder Jeff Vicente to explore how he built a hybrid salon, art gallery, and community “third space” in the heart of SoHo. From risky career pivots and “successful failures” to surviving cancer and addiction, Jeff shares how his resilience, queerness, and devotion to Madonna have shaped his leadership and vision. Together, we reflect on friendship, identity, and what it really takes to create spaces where unconventional, magical misfits can finally feel at home.Key takeaways: What it looks like to turn a non-linear career path—and even your lowest moments—into a uniquely powerful business and community.How building systems (not controlling people) helps leaders avoid burnout and create sustainable, values-driven organizations.Why queer third spaces and creative hubs like Iron Feather matter for belonging, resilience, and cultural change.Text me your thoughts on this episode!Enjoy the show? Don't miss an episode, listen and subscribe via Apple Podcasts or Spotify.  Leave me a review in Apple Podcasts. Connect with meBook a free hour-long consultation with me.

A day that changed the world and some of the queer lives caught in its path.Twenty-five years after 9/11, we remember several LGBTQ+ victims whose stories deserve to be told. From longtime partners denied recognition after their loved ones died, to a gay Catholic FDNY chaplain who ran into the chaos to help others, and an openly gay passenger aboard United 93 who helped fight back, these are stories of love, loss, courage, and queer history. In this episode we look beyond the headlines and remember the people behind one of the darkest days in American history.Hosted by Jordi and Brad, Beers With Queers brings true crime with a queer perspective, forgotten LGBTQ+ stories, and queer history to light, all with a cold one in hand. Press play, grab a drink, and remember the lives behind the tragedy. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

What happens when the places that helped us become ourselves disappear? A Brummie drag and The Voice UK legend has the answer... Drag artist and musician Fatt Butcher joins Graeme Smith to talk about the dance floors that changed their life—and why losing a gay bar means losing far more than somewhere to drink. Growing up in a small village during Section 28, Fatt watched Queer as Folk with the volume barely on, wondering where a queer life might be possible. Finding Birmingham's gay village opened up a world of first kisses, new identities and possibilities that had once felt out of reach. Now, Fatt is turning that experience into Congregational: a drag funeral for the gay village that attempts to resurrect it, complete with a queer choir, mirror balls, dance music and a decidedly unconventional approach to worship. But this isn't straightforward nostalgia. Graeme and Fatt get into the contradictions of spaces that can save lives while relying on selling us another drink, the loneliness of performing five nights a week, and reclaiming the joy of singing together after a complicated religious upbringing. Plus: smoking-area friendships, poppers and dubstep, turning hate into a badge of honour—and what it actually takes to build a community beyond the dance floor.

Jonny and Heather honor the legacy of Gloria Steinem. They note her significant contributions to women's rights as well as some slower points of development in her inclusivity with that struggle. They then turn from mourning Steinem to celebrating the birth of Heather O'Malley -- 58 years old, 25 of them living post transition. They use Heather's story to make the case for how trans rights are part of the women's rights movement, both are liberatory feminism challenging the oppressive norms of patriarchy. Along the way, they celebrate a recent song by Rosie O'Donnell and friends, the hypocrisy of Milo Yiannopoulos, and local performance opportunities--all with references to Judith Butler and J.L. Austin on performativity.

My friend Lucas Montoya (gay/queer, mid-20s, lives/works in Texas, RM, University of Chicago graduate) joins us to share his powerful story: * Founding of “RELIC” by LDS connected students at the University of Chicago (community, support, and Journal) * Overview of the articles in the RELIC Journal (see show notes) * Writing is a tool for building community * Lucas' own journey to go from deep shame/internalized homophobia—to deep acceptance of his queerness * Powerful personal revelation—his personal “Pearl of Gay Price”—to accept/love his queerness. This is title of his RELIC Journal article * How personal prayer helped him in the coming out process (mission president and parents) * How dating men helped him learn his is lovable—helped him feel hope for this future—“lock box key” Thank you, Lucas, for sharing your powerful story of self-love and acceptance. Your story helps other queer people find hope in their lives. You are a good man with a wonderful future. Thanks for all you have done to bless so many along the way. Honored to have you on the podcast. Thanks for your efforts to build Zion. I encourage everyone to listen to and share Lucas' podcast and check out RELIC.

This week we are joined by Isabel Sterling! Isabel Sterling writes stories about queer love and resilience with a witty magical twist. She is the author of several YA and adult novels, including: These Witches Don't Burn and With All My Haunted Heart. Connect with Isabel at www.IsabelSterling.com Author Isabel Sterling joins the show to talk about her new sapphic ghost story, With All My Haunted Heart, and how a childhood steeped in witchy books, tarot, and Practical Magic grew into the worlds she writes today. She dives into grounding magic in real practices like Reiki and tarot, discovering her queerness through writing, and the mindset tools — honed through her work as a life coach for authors — that got her through rejection, rewrites, and a canceled book contract. It's a conversation about joy, grief, and ambition coexisting, essential listening for anyone drawn to stories with heart, humor, and haunted energy.

In this episode, NBN host Hollay Ghadery speaks with Kirby about their joyful and powerful new book, Fairy (Palimpsest Press, 2026). In Fairy, Kirby continues to mine their riches and fan the flames lit in their instant classic, Poetry is Queer. Their essays are an act of liberation they call “tending to each other's freedom,” and are written with signature Kirby directness and panache, from early AIDS-activist monologues, to launching a counter city-wide “safe-sex” campaign that includes the public depiction of an affectionate gay couple, to leaving the States in a love that made them “the most beautiful boy in the world,” to becoming a Canadian queer poetry icon. Like countless fairies before them, Kirby scouts desire paths beyond mere survival for new queer voices to continue to amaze, flourish, and thrive. Or as Fairy says, “This way >>>” Kirby is the author of She (KFB, 2025), Poetry is Queer (Palimpsest Press, 2021), This Is Where I Get Off (Permanent Sleep Press, 2019), featured columnist at Send My Love to Anyone and publisher at Knife | Fork | Book. kirbyfairy.ca Hollay Ghadery is an award-winning Iranian-Canadian multi-genre writer living in Ontario on Anishinaabe land. She has her MFA in Creative Writing from the University of Guelph. Fuse, her memoir of mixed-race identity and mental health, was released by Guernica Editions in 2021 and won the 2023 Canadian Bookclub Award for Nonfiction/Memoir. Her collection of poetry, Rebellion Box was released by Radiant Press in 2023, and her collection of short fiction, Widow Fantasies, was released with Gordon Hill Press in fall 2024 and was longlisted for the Toronto Book Award.

Every Labor Day weekend, tens of thousands of members of the LGBTQ community from around the world gather in New Orleans for the five-day party known as Southern Decadence. To celebrate, this week, we bring you stories of culinarians expressing queerness through food. First, we hear from John Birdsall, author of "What Is Queer Food? How We Served a Revolution." He tells us about the often-unknown gay influence on modern American cuisine and some of the hidden heroes who have contributed so much to how and what we eat. And, perhaps most importantly, he answers the titular question of his book. Then, we catch up with our New Orleans friends, Kitten N' Lou. You may know them as the couple who put on spectacular shows that combine drag, dance, burlesque, and a theater. By day, they're the owners of Chance In Hell SnoBalls in the New Orleans' Bywater neighborhood. We visit the dynamic duo, who have moved their operation from a front porch pandemic project to a popular brick-and-mortar shop. For more of all things Louisiana Eats, be sure to visit us at PoppyTooker.com.

Survivor 51 Cast Preview Part 1 Watch the podcast on YouTube! Survivor 51 is on the horizon, and Rob Cesternino and Mike Bloom are here to talk about the cast! Rob and Mike pull back the curtain on a cast shrouded in mystery and “permanent uncertainty.” Rob and Mike comb through every available detail about the first seven contestants, uncovering hidden stories, professional secrets, and potential game-changing personalities. With no pre-game interviews allowed this season, the duo relies on cast bios, social media clues, and fan-sourced tidbits to piece together what's in store for the dramatic two-hour premiere, titled “As the Crow Flies.” This preview episode dives deep into the castaways' backgrounds—highlighting a chef with a past in the Patriots' kitchen, a criminal defense attorney hiding her true profession, a My Little Pony voice actress, a pro wrestler with NXT ties, a livestock farmer channeling classic JT, a director of HR with a Survivor legacy in his family, and an actor from Grey's Anatomy and Queer as Folk. Rob and Mike speculate on the big twists teased for opening night, including an odd 21-person starting mat, the promise of “permanent uncertainty,” and the immediate impact of a mysterious journey and a dramatic first Tribal Council pitting allies head to head. The cast's eclectic mix brings comparisons to iconic players and sets the stage for unpredictable alliances, challenge prowess, and plenty of conflict—both culinary and strategic. Key discussion points from Rob and Mike include: – Aaliyah's high-energy, talkative style and her history as a chef for the New England Patriots – Alexis's secret lawyer strategy and her candid approach to exploiting emotional game moments – Ana's animated career, including her time as Strawberry Shortcake and a cameo on The Boys – Brady's pro wrestling background, wild early life stories, and alliance plans with opposites – Carter's old-school farmer work ethic and JT-like potential – Cristian's alternate origin, HR expertise, and ties to Survivor history – Devin's “no lies, no backstabs” philosophy and his knack for creative gameplay Is Survivor's open era about to rewrite the rules, or will day one twists send castaways scrambling? Rob and Mike tease how food, authority, and first impressions could shape the season from the start.

**THIS EPISODE CONTAINS FULL SPOILERS**This week on Film is Lit, we are heading to 1950s Mexico City to discuss William S. Burroughs' Queer and Luca Guadagnino's adaptation starring Daniel Craig. Is Queer a faithful adaptation? Does the book's surreal ending actually work? And perhaps most importantly... how awesome were those Nirvana needle drops, huh?!We talk about Daniel Craig's wildly vulnerable performance, the challenges of adapting one of Burroughs' most personal novels, Guadagnino's divisive creative choices, and why Queer might be one of those movies that gets better - or at least more interesting - the more you sit with it.Plus: drugs, deep longing, Jason Schwartzman in a fat suit, and more needle drops. You won't want to miss this!#FilmIsLit #Queer #WilliamSBurroughs #LucaGuadagnino #DanielCraig #FilmPodcast #DrewStarkey #JasonSchwartzman #MoviePodcast #BookToFilm #FilmAdaptation #Nirvana #LesleyManville

Today's episode is on gendered pronouns in Mandarin! Join us for a journey through thousands of years of Chinese language, featuring paleo-pronouns, neo-pronouns, and the complexities of expressing gender when your phone has a limited character set. For those of you who would like a visual to go along with the Chinese characters we discuss in this episode, they are 他 (masculine/neutral tā), 她 (feminine tā), 牠 ("cow-tā"), 祂 ("God-tā"), and X也 (gender-neutral tā). This episode was originally released on our Patreon in 2025.  Check out our website, where you can find our sources, as well as everything there is to know about Queer as Fact.
