Joe Queer, frontman of the iconic punk band The Queers, joins the podcast to talk about four decades of making unapologetic, Ramones-inspired punk rock. From the early DIY days to their cult following, Joe gets candid about music, culture, personal growth. From his close relationship to Joey Ramone to his drive to always put out great music. Joe is an inspiration to us all. 

Gather your closest group of friends and get ready to head to the Amazon rainforest because we're discussing Tom Gormican's (The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent) 2025 reboot of Anaconda. Unfortunately, our anacondas don't want none of this, hun.Join us as we try to figure out who thought this was a good idea (though judging by the box office numbers, the gamble seems to have paid off). Its reliance on juvenile humor, subpar thrills in the snake attack department and complete lack of a meaningful plot make this one big misfire for us.Questions? Comments? Snark?

Ob Greta Thunberg oder Queers for Palastine - bei Gaza war die Solidarität groß. Es gab laute Demonstrationen in den Straßen. Doch wenn die Menschen im Iran unter Lebensgefahr gegen das Mullah-Regime aufbegehren, ist von der Linken wenig zu hören. Warum nur? Florian Schroeder hat da einige Vermutungen.

Family, "Me and God gonna have a lot of talks about forgiveness on this one..." The holiday tradition continues! While we are still on our winter break, we are bringing you the conclusion of our annual end-of-year takeover with Kris and Shana of the Bad Queers Podcast. In Part 2, we're moving from the heat of July through the final moments of December to wrap up what can only be described as a "dumpster fire" of a year with a little bit of grace and a lot of laughs. In Part 2, we're getting into: The Wins: Lambda Legal's massive $6.2 million victory and Anna's beautiful "Shine a Light on It" exhibit. The Mess: From the WNBA "Green Sex Toy" marketing stunt to the Charlie Kirk fallout and the end of the Dinah Shore era. Bad Queer Opinions: Why we're "too gay to be transphobic" and why some folks are officially not welcome in the circle in 2026. The All-Star Vision: Anna, Kris, and Shana manifest a "Black & Gay as Hell" Summer 2026 in Chicago for the WNBA All-Star Game. It's been a wild year, family, but we are closing it out with the people who make us laugh the loudest. We'll be back with our standard Queer News episode next week, but for now enjoy the chaos! And don't forget… Independent Black queer media runs on your support. If you love this crossover, make sure to show some love to the Bad Queers fam!  

Family, while the Queer News Podcast is on holiday break, we're bringing you a special gift: Part 1 of our annual end-of-year crossover with our favorite duo, Kris and Shana of the Bad Queers Podcast.

Ride that hippo and stay off the floor because we are talking about Bryan Fuller's feature directorial debut, Dust Bunny (2025).Starring a perfectly cast Sophie Sloan as a young girl who hires a nameless hitman (Mads Mikkelsen) to kill the monster under her bed, this is a throwback to classic gateway horror films from the Amblin era.Plus: Sigourney Weaver (and her gun heels), praise for balancing so many genres/tones, homages aplenty, and a new reason to get excited about The Vampire Lestat (hint: it's Sheila Atim).Questions?

Drinkin' Bros podcast host Dan Hollaway joins Bridget for an uncensored conversation about all the third rail topics you could ever ask for, from why we should probably just invade Mexico, to how 20 million illegals and BlackRock turned 29-year-old home-buyers into 40-year-old renters, the reality behind the horseshoe theory that brings together “Queers for Palestine” and actual Islamists, and Zohran Mamdani's "brown guilt." They explore how pure libertarianism was tried and failed during the founding of the United States, the truth about Trump's plan to bring manufacturing back to the US, why the Constitution is the best document ever written, his belief that people aren't stupid - they're ignorant, why a nation of strong men is a strong nation, and why he only offends people because they're delicate. Check out Dan's Substack - Offensive - https://bit.ly/WiW-Offensive --------------------------------------------------------------------- Sponsor Links: - Transform your fitness with science based training.

Buscamos las raíces ideológicas detrás de un genocidio que no ha terminado. Hablamos del pinkwashing de Israel, de la Hasbará y de cómo utiliza los derechos LGTBIQ+ en su propaganda antipalestina con una militante del colectivo Queers in Palestine. Y contamos cómo funcionan los asentamientos de colonos, y cómo Israel usa la arquitectura, el urbanismo y la historia para expulsar a los palestinos con Nadwa Abu Ghazalah, activista hispanopalestina del movimiento BDS, Boicot, Desinversiones y Sanciones; y con Héctor Grad, judío antisionista y profesor de antropología social en la Universidad Autónoma de Madrid.

LGBTQ+ history has long been overlooked, ignored, or actively erased, leaving us with only fragments of a past that deserves to be preserved and celebrated. That absence makes historical fiction a meaningful platform for reclaiming space and allowing queer characters to exist in time periods that have traditionally denied their presence or humanity.In this episode, Jeza Belle, a New York City-based drag queen and author of The Freedom to Love, joins us to discuss the power of storytelling through historical fiction and the importance of preserving LGBTQIA+ narratives in overlooked time periods.Related Episodes:Listen to Episode 145.

Joyce talks about the "Way To Win" democratic group poll that claims that most voters who did not participate in the 2024 election say that they would have voted for Kamala Harris. She also talks about how Union Bosses are undermining the American worker by funding certain political campaigns. Joyce also talks about what is going on the Middle East and Queers for Palestine, alternatives to mainstream media for news, and Congress spending more time out in front of the camera creating problems instead of working in their offices towards solutions for the American people.

What makes food queer? Is it possible to name and list it out as simple, clearcut elements? In their new co-edited volume, Queers at the Table, Drs. Alex Ketchum and Megan Elias explore this question with a community of writers, illustrators, and recipe creators. As an anthology of essays, comics, and recipes, the book reveals the dynamic and transformative ways that queerness informs food production and restaurant culture, and how food empowers, transforms, and unites queer and trans folk.  Alex is an Associate Professor at McGill University's Institute for Gender, Sexuality, and Feminist Studies, and the co-organizer of the Queer Food Conference. Since she was last on the show to discuss her DIY zine, How to Start a Feminist Restaurant, she's also written Ingredients for a Revolution: A History of American Feminist Restaurants, Cafes, and Coffeehouses, and Engage in Public Scholarship! A Guide to Feminist and Accessible Community. Megan is the director of Food Studies Programs at Boston University, and a historian of American foodways. They are the author of five books about food history, with the most recent being Food on the Page: Cookbooks and American Culture. She teaches courses in food history, food and gender, and food memories, and the Introduction to Gastronomy. Together, they share behind-the-scenes about how Queers at the Table came to be after the Queer Food Conference, the intersections of queer identity and food culture, including the important of community in queer food work, challenging traditional culinary and gastronomic norms and binaries through cooking and sharing food, safety in cooking and kitchen spaces, and expansive considerations for queering food spaces in the future.

A Note from James: Bill O'Reilly's new book, Confronting Evil, is both a history lesson and a warning. It's a study of the most destructive figures in human history—from Hitler, Stalin, and Mao to Genghis Khan, Caligula, and even modern evildoers like Putin and the cartels.When I first picked it up, I thought it would be about the past. But after reading it, I realized it's really about right now—about how evil mutates, reappears, and spreads when we stop paying attention.We talked about the psychology of evil, how it manifests differently in modern life, and why we all need to look inward at how we process fear and anger. The episode ends on a note of hope—but only if we're willing to face what's real.Episode Description:In this episode, James sits down with legendary journalist and author Bill O'Reilly to discuss his new book, Confronting Evil: Assessing the Worst of the Worst. Together, they explore how history's darkest figures—Hitler, Mao, Stalin, Putin, and others—reflect modern patterns of violence, polarization, and moral decay.O'Reilly draws from decades of reporting and war correspondence to explain the difference between “personal evil” and “collective evil,” and why societies collapse when good people stop paying attention.The conversation also looks at free speech, mental illness, the internet's role in radicalization, and why mercy for the guilty so often becomes cruelty to the innocent.What You'll Learn:The 15 most destructive figures in world history—and why their patterns are repeating today.The two types of evil: personal vs. collective.How technology and echo chambers amplify hatred.Why ignoring small evils allows larger ones to grow.How to recognize and contain evil in a free society.Timestamped Chapters:[02:00] A Note from James: Introducing Confronting Evil[02:39] Are we living in a new age of violence or just a repeating cycle?[03:39] On partisanship, anger, and how fear disguises itself[04:57] Bill joins: marketing a book in the age of distraction[05:51] Why O'Reilly wrote Confronting Evil and how it differs from his “Killing” series[07:16] Putin, October 7th, and the eerie timing of the book's release[08:20] Why today's evil feels more personal than historic evil[09:39] Personal encounters with evil: chasing Ted Bundy[11:01] Witnessing atrocities: from El Salvador to Belfast[12:24] Could Hitler have been reasoned with?

Grab a chainsaw because we're slicing into writer Joe Knetter and director Marcel Walz's homage to classic rural horror titles like The Texas Chainsaw Massacre and The Hills Have Eyes.We're mixed on this one, which has one of the best deaths of the year (file under: gloryhole sounding) and tons of queerness, but has terrible pacing/editing and a confusing message.Questions?

On today's podcast we mark the upcoming 3rd anniversary of the October 7 massacres. This was Israel's darkest day, where 1,200 innocent men, women and children were murdered, and hundreds were taken hostage. And do we have a peace deal? Phelim has a particular insight into the end of war (having lived and worked through one in Northern Ireland) and you can read his thoughts on the Trump/Netanyahu proposals through the link below.*****************************************************To Donate.Projects You Need to Check Out.

We produced the OCTOBER 7 verbatim play which has been off-Broadway and in UCLA, Princeton and Bowdoin College, Maine. It is an amazing drama that brings the truth about Israel to those who need to see it. Watch this week's show where we bring you a newly released excerpt of our OCTOBER 7 play. It's the story of a true hero who rescued almost a hundred people that day.And other people are marking October 7 differently and encountering a few difficulties. There is a fake aid flotilla sailing towards Gaza hoping to get lots of social media likes by sailing into a war zone and provoking the Israeli government to take action against them. But all is not well on the good ship Virtue Signalling. It seems Queers for Palestine's biggest enemies are actually in Palestine. Watch this week's episode and see Quierdos for Palestine experiencing homophobia from the people you most expect! And talking of Israel haters- we bring you the latest news of the ultimate humiliation for Iranian diplomats. And it involves our favorite shop - COSTCO. And taking Tylenol during pregnancy was bad until Trump said it was bad… and now it's good. This week Phelim investigates the amount of harm Leftists will do to themselves to show Trump who's boss.And where are the outraged Hollywood leftists when it's discovered that a gay couple in a popular indie film were erased before the film was released in China? Too busy protesting Trump, I suppose, to not to notice that they are the biggest censors in the industry.And it is a far far better thing I do than I have ever done. The sacrifices Phelim makes for you people. He reviewed Kamala Harris's book on her “brave” election campaign - and it is actually worse than you might think. Watch this week's episode to find how much worse.Please keep sharing your stories with us and leaving comments, we may read them on the show.

In this episode of the Broad Street Review Podcast, host Darnelle Radford speaks with playwright Daniel Neer about his new work, 'Dachau for Queers,' which explores the historical context of a psychiatric hospital in California that incarcerated gay men. The conversation delves into themes of empathy, self-acceptance, family dynamics, and the importance of community support within the LGBTQ+ experience. Neer shares insights into the creative process and the role of theater in fostering social change, emphasizing the need for understanding and connection in a fragmented society.Chapters00:00 Introduction to the Play and the Artist02:05 Exploring the Themes of 'Dachau for Queers'06:02 The Creative Process Behind the Play11:58 Family Dynamics and Identity18:14 Community and Empathy in the LGBTQ+ Experience24:00 The Importance of Storytelling in ArtDACHAU FOR QUEERS Workshop Production of a New Play by Daniel NeerDirected by Ted GorodetzkyProduced by The LAB It's 1970, and runaway Jonah Goodson is confined at California's notorious Atascadero Psychiatric Hospital. His “sickness”? Homosexuality. Navigating a psychotropic maze of barbaric treatments, he encounters the most unlikely guides – but are they real or imagined?Gruesomely referred to as Dachau for Queers, the maximum-security forensic institution Atascadero Psychiatric Hospital was widely renowned for its experimental therapies of electrical and pharmacological shock treatments subjected upon inmates to "cure" them of their perceived sexual deviations. The fictional Jonah Goodson, estranged from his family and adrift in 1970's San Francisco, gets caught in the belly of that beast and wrestles with his jumbled mind to carve a journey out. At times shockingly brutal and at others comically surreal, Daniel Neer's new play is an innovative odyssey punctuated by surprising characters, leaps of fantasy, and heartfelt truths.Written by Daniel Neer Directed by Ted Gorodetzky Cast: Tristan Jenis, Lois Sach*, Neena Boyle, Ted Gorodetzky*, Avery Leach (*appearing courtesy AEA)FOR MORE INFORMATION: https://phillyfringe.org/events/dachau-for-queers/

We're celebrating the 25th anniversary of queer director João Pedro Rodrigues' controversial erotic drama O Fantasma (2000).There's a lot to unpack in this movie with very little dialogue or narrative tissue, as we follow protagonist Sérgio (Ricardo Meneses) from sexual encounter to sexual encounter. It's a strange (and occasionally very, very hot) film that left us a bit perplexed, but we can't deny that it fascinated us to no end. Questions? Comments? Snark?

Trump's “Big Evil Bill” sped through Congress, to sell off public lands, gut healthcare, destroy rural hospitals, outlaw state AI regulation for a decade, make it harder to take out loans to go to college, and unleash an immigration enforcement regime bigger than anything we've ever seen. ICE will now have a budget bigger than the FBI, DEA, U.S. Bureau of Prisons combined. This is an oligarchy fever dream that will painfully backfire on everyone. Trump's Big Evil Bill is the blueprint of Project 2025 in action: a theocratic, authoritarian takeover of our democracy. This bill will expand presidential powers, weaken the lower courts, and crush humanitarian protections and put our already militized police state on Russian Olympian super steroids. Russell Vought, Trump's OMB Director and the architect of Project 2025, made sure the money was there to turn July 4th into a funeral for the American Revolution by installing a mad king.  But here's the truth hiding in the despair: the more pain this bill causes, the more people it radicalizes. Just as past generations rose up during times of injustice, many Americans, especially those who embraced Trump's con, like those manosphere-brain rotted Gen Z men, will be forced to wake up. They'll see the betrayal. They'll feel it. And some will finally fight back. The far-right had a 40-year plan. We need ours. One model: The Gay Revolution by historian Lillian Faderman. It's the story of how love, courage, and relentless organizing by small groups of determined people, many forced to become activists because of state cruelty like the kind we're now seeing, and won against impossible odds. The Gay Revolution is our roadmap of hope, and it pays tribute to the countless men and women, many who risked everything, many whose names we may never know, to cast out the darkness with love and defiance.  Go to the Gaslit Nation's Action Guide and choose action.
