SEASON 2 | EP 6

In this beautifully candid episode of VTV, co-hosts Kev & Trev sit down with VACAYA guests, Jamie and Austin, a bi couple, for a raw, insightful conversation about love, identity, and breaking assumptions.

Together, they dive into what it’s like to travel as a bisexual couple in LGBTQ+ spaces—often being misread as a heteronormative pair—and how that impacts the way they connect with the community on their journeys. Jamie and Austin also open up about practicing ethical non-monogamy: how they navigate it, whether they currently have other partners, and the honest, sometimes messy, always authentic conversations it sparks.

Jamie shares powerful reflections on her trans experience, from self-discovery to living openly, while Austin talks about the nuances of dating a trans woman versus dating a man, and how that’s shaped his own understanding of attraction, love, and queerness.

This episode is a heartfelt exploration of identity, fluidity, and what it means to truly see—and celebrate—each other. It’s a must-listen for anyone curious about the complexities and joys of LGBTQ+ relationships beyond the binary.

SEASON 2 | EP 4

In this deeply personal and inspiring episode of VTV, co-hosts Kev & Trev sit down with the one and only Billy Gilman—country music sensation, LGBTQ+ trailblazer, and VACAYA guest—to talk about life, love, and living authentically.

Billy rose to stardom at just 11 years old with his debut single "One Voice," which became a Top 40 hit on the Billboard Hot 100 and catapulted him to international fame. His debut album went on to be certified double platinum, earning him two Grammy nominations and a place in music history as the youngest artist ever to chart a Top 40 single on the country charts. But Billy's journey didn’t stop there.

In this episode, we explore the highs and lows of growing up in the public eye and coming out as a young gay man in the traditionally conservative world of country music. Billy shares candid stories about the challenges he faced in the industry, the support he found along the way, and how embracing his true self changed the course of his career and life.

We also dive into Billy’s personal life, including his thoughts on marriage, relationships, and the power of chosen family. And of course, we chat all about his recent experience on a VACAYA vacation—what surprised him most, what he loved about the community, and why LGBTQ+ travel holds such a special place in his heart.

Filled with vulnerability, laughter, and powerful insight, this episode is a must-listen for fans of Billy, lovers of country music, and anyone who believes in the power of living your truth.
