*THIS IS A RE-EDITED RERELEASE OF SZN 2 EP 2*
NEW WEEK, day late BUT WE ARE HERE! Welcome to our SCIENCE SHIT week! Today’s episode is over the illustrious ORCHID FAMILY! Orchids are the largest family of flowering plants and the most diverse. Orchids are also master liars and cheaters! Most Angiosperms offer sugar water to attract bugs to help pollinate their flower but orchids usually just trick their pollinators into pollinating them without any reward.
J goes solo on this episode and talks about some basic orchid facts, what makes orchids special, how the Bee Orchid and Slipper Orchid take advantage of horny males, pollinating difficulties of the Ghost Orchid and J raises the question are orchids... alive!?
On every episode J & Lesly feature something they’re loving right now called a Double Feature. We call it our DOUBLE FEATURE because there's two of us and we wanna feature some sh*t. ☺
It can be a podcast, tv show, music, book or anything! Our Double Feature for this episode is the English dubbed Japanese animated war film: Grave of the Fireflies (Hulu) and the small skin-care business called KraveBeauty created by Liah Yoo! Support asian films and businesses!

"At least for me, being trans is spiritual." - Jules
*THIS IS A RE-EDITED RERELEASE OF SZN 2 EP 12*
¡Bienvenido to our podcast, Homo In Training! Each week we rotate between 3 segments called thotful moment, entertainment review and some science shit! But we doubled up on the ENTERTAINMENT this week, so are talking about HBO's: Euphoria Special Episode Part 2: Jules.
Jules is the new girl in town and goes through a lot after her move. We HIGHLY ENCOURAGE YOU to watch Euphoria SZN 1 to get more of her story. But this Part 2 really dives into the feelings Jules has struggled with when she first moved to town. In Part 2 she is in a therapy session and covers some heavy topics. WE WERE IN OUR FEELS!
J & Lesly will be discussing if they’re ever built their life around what men desire, how people size each other up to see where you fit in their “hierarchy”, loving someone who suffers from substance abuse, how great art makes us EMOtional, also how beautiful the cinematography is on Euphoria and how it adds so much value to the show.
On every episode J & Lesly feature something they’re loving right now called a Double Feature. We call it our DOUBLE FEATURE because there's two of us and we wanna feature some sh*t. ☺ It can be a podcast, tv show, music, book or anything!
Our Double Feature for this episode is two songs from the Euphoria Special Episode Part 2: Jules! We are in love with “Lo Vas A Olvidar” by ROSALÍA & Billie Eilish and Liability by Lorde. They’re on our SPOTIFY PLAYLIST, CHECK IT OUT!
Next week IS SCIENCEEEEEEE!!!!!

“[If you] compare [to] where you are, to where you want to be … you'll get nowhere.” — Sara Bareilles
*THIS IS A RE-EDITED RERELEASE OF SZN 2 EP 29*
Welcome to our THOTful Moment this week! We ask the big question: "Is our life predestined or do we have choices?" because systemic inequalities are real, like systemic racism, being poor and/or having a disability.
In this episode J & Lesly discuss what sparked this conversation, does everyone has the same choice, how we shouldn't compare our struggles to others, can people change or are we stuck, and some advice for those of you who feel like you can't change your situation.
Q'u, q'u yet dahdi nuntghesht'ih yida!!

*THIS IS A RE-EDITED RERELEASE OF SZN 2 EP 13*
Finally some science sh*t for you all! J returns with his Science Moment this week and in honor of Earth Day (April 22) we are talking about CLIMATE CHANGE! This shouldn’t be a controversial subject but unfortunately… some people think it's fake. This is gonna be a hard episode because we're gonna be dropping some facts that might scare you BUT just remember, don't lose hope!
J discusses the difference between weather and climate, what is CO2 and why is it bad that it's in the atmosphere, how the ocean absorbs 90% of the Earth's HEAT and why that's bad, acidic oceans, last time the Earth got hot af, what rising sea levels means, why planting billions of trees kinda doesn't help.. and the IMPORTANCE AND URGENCY of supporting Indigenous Peoples initiatives to save the Earth!
On every episode J & Lesly feature something they’re loving right now called a Double Feature. We call it our DOUBLE FEATURE because there's two of us and we wanna feature some sh*t. ☺ It can be a podcast, tv show, music, book or anything!
Our Double Feature for this episode is the AMAZING FUN ENTERTAINING animated film, Princess Mononoke on HBOMax and the LGBTQ/Two-Spirit Indigenous artist Bobby Sanchez's song Queche 101 Land Back Please.
FIND OUT WHAT LAND YOU’RE ON! Land acknowledgments are a simple and important way to honor the indigenous communities that were forcibly displaced and killed by colonizers. I encourage you to look up any local indigenous led initiatives in your area.

“I'm not the sum of all my worries and I'm not the sum of yours. I'm not the summer of 2015 but I can be the summer of now.” - Summer of Now by James Blake
*THIS IS A RE-EDITED RERELEASE OF SZN 1 EP 21*
We don’t cover a lot of wypipo on this podcast but James Blake is an artist we stan in this household! Also if you work with Beyoncé, you’re okay in our book. We are here with our segment “entertainment review” where we discuss some of our favorite things in pop culture. This week it’s all about the London born artist, James Blake Litherland! Not to be confused with James Brown or James Blunt.. it’s okay we made that mistake too.
James came out with a 4 song EP called “BEFORE” and it’s giving us EDM vibes!! Lesly and J are not shy to a rave or two, or three or five. His sound is ever evolving which we love because it makes every work of art he puts out worth a listen. Because it isn’t the same as before. It’s something new every time! Not only is this man making music for himself he has worked with big name artists like BEYONCÉ, Frank Ocean, Kendrick Lamar, just to name a few! No, literally there’s too many to count.
Lesly and J cover all of those topics including their first impressions of the EP and his other music, thots behind his lyrics and how we first started listening to him. Stick around to the end 'cause we get EMOTIONAL about how music connects us as best friends. Thank you for joining us again this week! We are close to wrapping up the year and this podcast has been a joy to make and see grow!
फिर मिलेंगे (phira mileṃge) !

“Love is born into every human being; it calls back the halves of our original nature together; it tries to make one out of two and heal the wound of human nature.” — Plato
*THIS IS A RE-EDITED RERELEASE OF SZN 1 EP 23*
We are nearing the end of 2020 (thank god) and we are also bringing our SEASON 1 to an end!! We got some plans coming up for the next season which will start mid January.
This is our last “thotful moment” for this year and we are ending it by giving you a (platonic) love story between J and Lesly! We feel like people get so sad when they aren’t in a romantic relationship and ignore the amazing platonic loves they have in their lives that can make you feel just as good, or better!
This week we discuss our man the philosopher Plato, what does platonic love mean to us and we give you the history of our friendship and how it came to be. Also we talk about how we so often overlook the love we receive from our amazing friends and family.
Platonic love is the most underrated type of love out there and for us, it’s been a crucial part to our healing and growth. We hope you’ve enjoyed our episode! It was so much fun to be able to tell our story and be out and proud about our platonic love!
