This week on Militantly Mixed, I’m joined by the planning committee of Free To Be Fest, a celebration of Mixed identity, community, and creativity. Fresh off the success of this year’s festival, we sat down together to debrief the event, share our reflections, and dream out loud about the future of Free To Be Fest.
We talk about the highs, the challenges, the magic moments, and what we hope to build for next year and beyond. If you’ve ever wondered what goes into creating a festival rooted in identity, inclusion, and joy, this behind-the-scenes conversation is for you.

The Male Room with Dr. Jesse Mills
As Director of The Men’s Clinic at UCLA, Dr. Jesse Mills has spent his career helping men understand their bodies, their hormones, and their health. Now he’s bringing that expertise to The Male Room — a podcast where data-driven medicine meets common sense. Each episode separates fact from hype, science from snake oil, and gives men the tools to live longer, stronger, and happier lives. With candor, humor, and real-world experience from the exam room and the operating room, Dr. Mills breaks down the latest health headlines, dissects trends, and explains what actually works — and what doesn’t. Smart, straightforward, and entertaining, The Male Room is the show that helps men take charge of their health without the jargon.
