Did you know that the green stripe on the pride flag represents nature. This stripe emphasizes that being queer is in nature’s design, and that pride must support the environment. 

Welcome to the Earth Day special! This episode I am joined by Matthew Scott, the director of storytelling at Project Drawdown. How does being queer and the climate affect one another? Is there a link between sexuality and the affects of climate change? Yes there is. The intersectionality of of climate and the queer community is intrinsically connected in many ways. Matthew guides us through his work at drawdown and shares his advice on how individuals can use their own stories to make a lasting impact in the climate movement.

In today's episode, I am joined by Tannertan36, an LA-based tik toker who is creating his own path. We speak about what it means to be chronically online, how it makes you feel, and how it makes you interact with other people. In today's day and age trends, clothes, and taglines are cycling at an unprecedented rate. It's hard to keep up and dissect the original from the dupe.

G&G is back after a cute little hiatus. In this episode, I discuss why I took a step back from podcasting and what I have learned since. Dealing with a breakup is never too easy but I shed some light on what helped me. I also discuss why identifying your anger and sadness can help you work through your problems. I tried my best to not sound whiny and actually provide you all with some tangible techniques and lessons that you can take away from this episode. 

How important are love languages in a relationship? To me, it's the difference between a 2-month fling and a year-long healthy relationship. Nick and I take the love language quiz and discuss our results in the episode. Is the quiz accurate? How can I tell what my love language is without the quiz? Does your childhood affect the way you accept love as an adult? Absolutely. This episode is raw and a slap in the face if you've never thought to consider your partner's love language... Hope you enjoy and happy valentines day! 

Today's guest Preschard Williams and I discuss everything about HIV. We cover how he is currently living with it, his reaction to contracting it, and his treatment. Not only do we talk about his personal experiences but we also discuss the criminalization of HIV and the ethics behind disclosing your status. This has been a huge episode for me personally and I hope you guys enjoy it! 

Nick, one of the first guests on the podcast joins us after a year-long hiatus! We discuss the challenges and growing pains we have faced since the last time we were together. We also dive into a queer person's "timeline" and how queer people live in a gray area of expectations. Before we sign off, we discuss music red flags and what to look for on a Spotify wrapped. 

From an early age, we are bombarded with sexualized commercials, movies, and shown unattainable features constantly. These images and portrayals of people can lead to toxic beauty standards. These standards stick with us throughout our adulthood and are exacerbated in the gay community. In this episode, I talk about my experiences with the toxic gay beauty standard and how we can be the future of setting the "new" standard.  This episode is just the beginning of the conversation and I hope you stick along for the ride. 

Being in your 20s is the definition of uncharted territory. In this episode, my guest Kaylyn and I take a deep dive into the pros/ cons of being in your 20s. Sometimes it's glamourous but most of the time it's quite dull. We empathize with you and share some great advice in this conversation. Feel free to listen and hopefully take something away from this roller coaster of an episode. 

This episode is packed with great insights on ego, and how it plays into your expectations within your relationships. I talk about my personal accounts of checking my own ego, and how it could be beneficial to realize the true intentions of other people's actions or lack thereof.
