July 05, 2024Ep. 16: A gay wrestler, trans Olympian and bisexual Love Islander walk into a bar
Megan is experiencing "Love Island"-induced hysteria and looked into historical gay happenings in the franchise. Grace is putting on the sports correspondent hat this week to talk about trans and nonbinary athletes in the Olympics, wrestlers getting gay married, and Mother's return to the ring. And we're possibly even more confused than last week about this Keke Palmer/DivaGurl business.

June 28, 2024Ep. 15: Avery Cyrus landlord era; Charli XCX is stopping the violence
*Content warning: In this episode, we briefly mention abuse in reference to XXXTentacion

Somber episode alert: We're talking about SOPHIE's posthumous album announcement and Sally Ride's place in gay history. Charli XCX is not having it with fans pitting her against Taylor Swift. In lighter topics, Avery Cyrus is gutting a house with her bare hands and becoming a landlord. And we're officially confused about Keke Palmer's role in her new girl group DivaGurl. Plus, we firmly believe that Chappell Roan is a drag queen. She was green!

June 07, 2024Ep. 12: Looking sexy at pride; teammates in soccer and life
Happy June! Pride is for throwing up in public and wearing assless chaps. And U.S. women's soccer is gay, duh! Also, we dive in to some discourse around kink and straight boyfriends at pride and Grace gets a little too into queer theory.

May 31, 2024Ep. 11: Sedona Prince is hunting for a short brunette; Bugs are gay
Content warning: In this episode, we discuss suicide and emotional manipulation.

We didn't go to Boston Calling because it was too scary. Megan especially can't go to Texas now either because Sedona Prince and Liv Stabile broke up and Sedona is probably prowling around for her next short brunette girlfriend. Also, there's a virus making cicadas gay, but a ton of other animals are gay even WITHOUT a pathogen! Happy pride to them!
