Show Notes
We're talking about the Olympics again, obvi. Was the opening ceremony blasphemous? How is Grindr protecting queer athletes? Are the cardboard beds really stopping anyone from hooking up? And, we look into some discourse surrounding Futch Night, specifically allegations that the event caters only to white lesbian Swifties. Lastly, weirdos are trying to slut-shame people who take PrEP, so we thought this would be the perfect time for a crash course on the HIV/AIDs epidemic. Know your queer history before acting a fool online!!
