Dyking Out - a Lesbian and LGBTQIA Podcast for Everyone!

Is it possible for us to have comedian & filmmaker Kendall Payne on the podcast and NOT talk murder? Listen and find out! High off her brush with lesbian TikTok fame, a trip to The L Word set, and a moment with Fletcher, Kendall returns to the pod to d*ke out about all sorts of lesbian drama, and how her fascination with it got her into The New York Times. Plus, we talk about our experience at The Dinah, feelings on King Princess, problematic TV shows, and more!

We're recovering from Dinah Shore and are re-releasing another favorite ep from the archives.

This episode is everything and nothing, because that's where we always end up when discussing labels. But to us, it's actually everything because we're d*king out with the hilarious and entertaining Becca Blackwell (High Maintenance on HBO)! We talk about their gender and sexuality journey, as well as their relationship to labels throughout their life. What happens when we hold individual definitions for shared labels? Is it okay to disagree about what they mean? What are the spaces we create for our identities and who can occupy them? Can a trans masc person still be a dyke? (ABSOLUTELY).

It's the re-release of our 200th episode with one and only Rosie O'Donnell fulfilling the Dyking Out prophecy. Rosie has been doing press for her new show, and it's very interesting to hear her now talking about updates on a lot of the topics we touch on in this interview from a year ago! It may have taken four years of wishing this moment into existence (okay, maybe we did a LITTLE more than wishing), but we finally have our chance to dyke out with Rosie about our favorite topic: Rosie! How is she adjusting to life in L.A.? Why we won't be seeing her character Carrie having sex on this season of The L Word: Generation Q? Plus, all the gay things you've ever wanted to know about A League of Their Own, Now and Then, and other roles. We also learn about her experiences adopting children as a lesbian, coming out, and dating--including how NOT to ask her out. No matter the topic, Rosie makes it fun, interesting, and gay. And would you expect any different from the ultimate Dykon? TikTok ya' don't stop!

Your hosts with the mosts are traveling this week, so we're revisiting one of our favorite interviews with Director Jamie Babbit. Jamie most recently directed the first three episodes of Prime Video's A League of Their Own, which reminded us of our interview where she tells us about working on the show. But most of our conversation centers around one of our favorite movies, But I'm A Cheerleader.

We did it. We finally took a gaycation together. Podcaster and Cherry Grove connoisseur Jess Rothschild (Hot Takes and Deep Dives) joins us once more to talk about our magical, misandrist (for Carolyn) weekend on Fire Island. Did we end up meeting Wanda Sykes? How does it compare to PTown? What's the difference in the vibe between Cherry Grove and The Pines? And is there another destination that we can turn into a sapphic paradise? Plus, we review our new favorite drag acts. Also, Carolyn managed to make an enemy (and honestly might make more after listening to this episode).

Fresh off influencing the gravitational pull of the moon amongst a sea of queers, writer/comedian/past guest Colette McIntyre joins us to talk about a complicated trip to a different kind of magical place. One with garbage cans worth stanning. One with shirts about wanting and giving the "D." One with riddles and pins and barbershop quartets and vegan soft serve. Yes, Colette went to Disneyland for the first time as an adult and lived to tell about it. We dissect her experience and try to understand the draw for the queer community. Plus, we do our best to project our sexuality onto Disney stories and characters. An no, it's not just the villains. And yes, all the villains are gay. Lastly, is it worth losing all your friends to have a wedding photo opp with Mickey and Minnie?

We're counting down the weeks until we can wish folks a "Happy Dinah" IRL in Palm Springs. And to get us even more pumped for the occasion, we're dyking out with the founder of the largest lesbian event in the world, Mariah Hanson! So how did Mariah go from getting all parties banned on her college campus to putting on a queer music festival in the desert? What are the challenges in keeping the event focused on queer women while also being inclusive to all genders and identities? What keeps the celesbians coming back year after year? We cover all of this, and more. And by more we mean bees. There's a healthy amount of bee discourse. Plus, Carolyn and Melody obsess over the new A League of Their Own series.

Maybe he knows it, maybe he doesn't, but Timothée Chalamet definitely needs comedian Rachel Kaly in his life. Rachel details her very relatable admiration of our favorite (and only) male dykon, along with a crazy wonderful story that proves we live in a simulation. So how did Rachel go from a Cracker Barrel shirt and tie-wearing nine-year-old telling jokes at Gotham, to a master Ellen DeGeneres impersonator, to an agent of hilarious onstage chaos? Give this ep a listen and find out! Plus, Melody becomes a birth certificate sleuth for the gayest reason possible, and Carolyn takes credit for dyking up PTown.

If you've cried while coming out to your soccer coach, then you have something in common with comedian Nico Carney (Netflix, Boys' Club podcast). Fresh off a killer set at our Stonewall Inn show, Nico joins us to share his coming out story, his next coming out story, and the literature that helped inspire both. Plus, we talk about his Boys' Club show/podcast and experience in the first Netflix is a Joke festival. And if that's not enough, hear Melody geek out big time over...Grover?

Comedian (and hopefully new bff of the pod) Sheria Mattis joins us to ask all the right questions about studs and fibroids. Well, technically she answers more than she asks about fibroids, but we truly go on a reproductive health journey this episode. Plus, we talk about desired technological updates for straps and those who wear them. Also, Sheria makes Carolyn rethink her gay origin story, while Melody becomes convinced she should get checked for fibroids.
