Happy Queer History Month! In this week’s Queer News Alert the besties discuss Madonna (maybe?) coming out, the implications of having a green velvet couch and Ed Sheeran’s strange habit of gifting penis statues. S&M then dive into some queer history, while discussing how our language has evolved over the years to become more inclusive, including the shifts that have occured in how we understand being queer within ourselves and as a society.

*This episode was inspired by a Queer History thread that Sloan found on Twitter by Hugh Ryan, a writer, historian, and curator who specializes in queer topics.
