In this episode, your favorite southern lesbian, Ashley Hydrick, broadcasts live from a kitchen in Windsor, UK. Despite the occasional loud plane flying overhead, she delivers another engaging episode filled with her unique wit, warmth, and southern charm. She kicks off the show by discussing the amazing support and engagement from the community, especially on TikTok. She praises the younger generation's involvement, tech savviness, and emotional maturity.

BBC's "I Kissed a Girl": A shout-out to the newest lesbian-centered BBC show, sparking conversation about how today's young lesbians are navigating relationships.

She also dives into her love of lesbian romance novels, discussing her favorites like Jericho by Anne McMan and The Soho Loft Series by Melissa Brayden. She invites listeners to share their favorite lesbian romance books as well.

It's almost Pride Season! While it's a time for celebration with friends and public parades, let's not forget the historical significance.

Quick history: Homosexuality was considered a mental disorder until 1973, changed due to protests post-Stonewall riots.

Pride began as a riot, a reminder of our journey and a chance to desensitize the world to our presence and rights.

Safety Tips: Be aware of your surroundings, know where officers are, and watch out for pickpockets. Enjoy, but stay safe!

From heartfelt reflections on Pride to humorous musings on TikTok trends, lesbian dating apps, and romance novels, this episode has something for everyone.

Fun fact: I often find myself deep-diving into comment sections late at night to see who's who! (Maybe also doin’ a little wife-searchin’!)
