More bonus episodes!! Twice a month! COMING UP: A 1920s Election Day special, and soon after, a new mini-series about a true 1950s gay sex panic that turned one small town into a witch hunt, and how the town tried to cover it up. These bonus episodes and many more already waiting for you, plus tons of other fun stuff! $3/month at Patreon.com/QueerSerial. (Bonus episodes come right to your phone like any other podcast!)
