Sam had her baby ya'll!! And as such is taking a little time to recoup and get situated with motherhood. But in her absence, we will be having some guest hosts from former episodes to discuss new topics. This week, we go over the gay community in Baltimore: the scene, the apps, the mens, and much more!
