Come celebrate 5 years of Bad Queers!
We’re throwing down all month long with virtual events and an in-person celebration in Chicago. Don’t miss the chance to connect and toast to five years of this podcast.
This week, we unpack major headlines—from the CDC’s sudden shutdown of key HIV prevention initiatives to Cory Booker’s record-breaking filibuster speech. Plus, a win for the LGBTQ+ community: country artist Tanner Adell comes out as pansexual at the Billboard Women in Music Awards.
In our advice segment, Am I a Bad Queer?, we dig into:
- Is having a “backup bae” while in a relationship ever okay?
- Coming out and feeling like a queer newbie
- Going back in the closet to safely explore sexuality
For Bad Queer Opinions, we’re talking:
Why we need to celebrate positive masculine traits
The hard truth: not everyone in the LGBTQ+ community is a safe space
