Hey Straigtiolab Listeners, here's an episode of a new show, Silver Lining With The Old Gays, that we think you'll love. 

In today’s conversation, The Old Gays swing the closet door open on their coming out histories: from discovering their gay-hood and hard conversations with loved ones, to offering heartfelt advice for the next generation of LGBTQ+ folx. Whether inspired by underwear ads, Billy the Kid, or “sex with my psychologist,” their stories remind us that coming out isn’t defined by labeling your identity for others, but by the journey of personal discovery.

New episodes drop every other Tuesday, listen and subscribe wherever you get podcasts.

Happy Pride! If only it were that simple. Today we are joined by one of our country's most talented gaslighters, our dear friend Patti Harrison, to check in on the state of the LGBTQ+ community across the globe. The "episode topic" is brought up in passing exactly once as we get lost in a sea of psychological manipulation, sexual roleplay, marine life-based speculative fiction, and intellectual exercises that leave us feeling sore BUT refreshed. Get in... the water's scalding hot and filled with microplastics.

Happy Pride Month! Enjoy this re-release of our world famous special edition podcast: GaytioLab! And who better to join us in this exploration of gay culture than writer, actor, influencer, model, engineer, and dear friend of the pod Celeste Yim. We talk about how we celebrate pride, what it takes to order off menu, and of course what an "umbrella gay" is. Plus, we introduce a brand new original character to the world that is soon to have numerous film and tv projects GUARANTEED. If that doesn't get you interested then quite frankly I don't know what will!

Hi, Straightiolab Fans! We want to share a new show, Outlaws with TS Madison.   

About the show: Is it on? Is it on?? Honey, is this thing recording?! TS Madison broke the Internet with six seconds and a 22-inch weave. And she didn’t just go viral — she became part of the culture, from "RuPaul's Drag Race" to Beyoncé’s "Renaissance." Her superpower? Her voice. Her kryptonite? Doesn’t exist. Her podcast? The one they never saw coming. Each week on "Outlaws," Madison sits down with living legends and rising stars who shed their armor and own their stories — turning side-eyes into sermons, pain into punchlines, and grief into galaxies. They speak when silence is safer. They dream when told to disappear. And they know what so many are taught to fear: that when you speak your truth, you open a portal. Some episodes will crack you up. Others may crack you open. Keep the tissues nearby, just in case. "Outlaws" is proud to be part of the Outspoken Network from iHeartPodcasts, in partnership with Turtle Run Entertainment.

Listen here and subscribe to Outlaws with TS Madison on the iHeartRadio app or wherever you get your podcasts!

This week we are blessed to have Josh Sharp BACK on the pod. We come up with an amazing new tracklist of Kim Petras songs, explain what it means to "be philly", and unpack the band Phish with a LIVE fact checker in the room (because facts matter, y'all). Plus, Josh promotes his new off-broadway show "ta-da!" in a way that is so non-linear that even Greta Gerwig's ass will be sat. Speaking of, get tickets to Josh's show NOW at joshsharptada.com.

Have you been outside? There are men playing with Depression-era wooden toys—and it's all part of the masculinity crisis. Today we welcome our dear friend Liam Benzvi, whose amazing album ...AND HIS SPLASH BAND is out now, to chat all things yo-yos, cups and balls, and so much more. Plus: What is the most punk month? What does it mean to "have a thing"? And finally: Can gay guys get through Lizzo's Pass? Well it's not really that simple.

Find Liam's music at liambenzvi.com!

Today we are putting on our public intellectual hats for Torrey Peters, author of "Detransition, Baby" and whose incredible new book "Stag Dance" is available now. She brings insights that will potentially take years to fully grasp. Things like how all marriages can be straight if the divorce takes long enough. Or how there's no such thing as "the big moment" despite what the mainstream media will try to tell you. Or (and this is potentially the most important) how there's a whole community of nasty discord users who have yet to be brought to light by the proper channels. Well that ends here and now, enjoy the most prestigious episode of podcasting ever made.

Dreams really do come true as we finally welcome one of the most requested guests in StraightioLab herstory, the one and only Hari Nef! And she came PREPARED with a full list of topics, which we dissect one by one before landing on a winner. Questions include: Can male actors be actresses? Can drag brunch be a site of resistance? Are we "sat" for Ari Aster's latest? Should we FaceTime Lena Dunham? And are parents of LGBTQ+ children gagging from all the fabulosity? Sometimes! Plus: Hari debuts her impression of "Cher doing Joan Didion."
