Trevor Wilkinson is Nailing It

High school dress codes are notoriously problematic because the students who are targeted most often are girls, LGBTQ+ youth, and students of color. Stories make it to the news semi regularly. A girl sent home for not wearing a bra, a boy sent home for dreadlocks, or a boy wearing nailpolish. When Trevor Wilkinson was sent to the office for coming to school with his nails done, it wasn’t his first dress code violation. Since coming out as gay, he felt like he was scrutinized more than ever. So he decided to do something about it.Be sure to follow Trevor on IG!Your host is Levi Chambers, co-founder of Gayety.Follow the show and keep up with the conversation @Pride.*This podcast is not affiliated with Pride Media.From Straw Hut Media Learn more about your ad choices.

Modeling Behavior w/ Rain Dove

When people say mean or ignorant things to you or about you, you probably respond like most people. You get angry. It’s the natural reaction. But Rain Dove doesn’t and it’s glorious. Rain is a model who models both men’s and women’s products. And since building their platform, they’ve become a sort of unofficial queer Dear Abby, opening up their inbox to everyone from young queer folks to angry non-allies, answering vitriol with humor and compassion and giving really solid advice along the way.Be sure to follow Rain on IG!Your host is Levi Chambers, co-founder of Gayety.Follow the show and keep up with the conversation @Pride.*This podcast is not affiliated with Pride Media.From Straw Hut Media Learn more about your ad choices.

The Gay Santa Claus of Minnesota

With Thanksgiving behind us and December finally here, almost everyone I know is full on ready for Christmas, even the grinchiest of them all. To be honest, it seemed like everyone was ready to go a while ago. Maybe it’s because Christmas represents the end of the year, and we’re all ready for 2021. Maybe it’s because Christmas is comforting. Whatever the reason, let’s do it too.

Queer Surfing

To an outsider, mainstream surf culture looks very homogenous. Men with sun-bleached hair, long lean muscles, tan-- but not too dark-- skin. They hang out with hot girls in bikinis. They shred. They’re easy going, but aggressive. But like every seemingly heteronormative subsection of culture, there’s a queer side fighting against the currents of homophobia with all its might.Be sure to follow Benny’s Club, Johnny Capetta, Momo Hudes, Todd Prodanovich, and Cori Schumacher all on IG!Cori Schumacher - http://www.corischumacher.com/Cori Schumacher - https://www.theinertia.com/surf/cori-schumacher-might-be-the-most-interesting-woman-in-surfing/ Feature on Benny’s Club - https://i-d.vice.com/en_us/article/v7g9gm/bennys-surf-club-is-new-yorks-queer-bipoc-surfing-collective Another feature on Benny’s Club - https://beachgrit.com/2020/10/new-york-gay-and-bipoc-collective-bennys-club-created-to-neutralise-surfings-intimidatingscarystraight-white-male-energy/Surfer feature - https://www.surfer.com/features/history-lgbtq-surfing/Another cool Surfer feature - https://www.surfer.com/features/artist-stephen-milners-work-creates-an-alternative-queer-surf-history/Documentary about gay surfers - https://outinthelineup.com/Your host is Levi Chambers, co-founder of Gayety.Follow the show and keep up with the conversation @Pride.*This podcast is not affiliated with Pride Media.From Straw Hut Media Learn more about your ad choices.

Gay Gangs w/ Vanessa Panfil

PRIDE Wants YOU to Vote!

Right now, it’s hard to talk about almost anything besides the election. Even though election day is still technically a couple weeks away, already, more than 10 million people have cast their votes.

Voting is always important, but this year, everything feels more concentrated, more intense, more urgent. So let’s talk about it. I’m not here to tell you how to vote, only that you need to.

Sailing Through Queer Pirate History w/ Rebecca Simon

How do pirates know they’re pirates? They think … therefore they ARRR. Sorry for that terrible joke. But I want us all to get into the space of pirates. The open sea, violence, stealing, run-ins with the law, and above all, freedom — from the social burdens of the Early Modern Era and — freedom to love who they loved.The pirates we’ll meet today were way more exciting than eye patches and wooden legs. Get ready for a crash course on the Golden Age of piracy, the time of Blackbeard and the real Pirates of the Caribbean. We’ll meet famous queer pirates like John Swann, Robert Culliford, Ann Bonnie, and Mary Read. And maybe we’ll go home with a few pirate-inspired tips on how to use your style to intimidate.Be sure to follow Becka on TwitterYour host is Levi Chambers, co-founder of Gayety.Follow the show and keep up with the conversation @Pride.*This podcast is not affiliated with Pride Media.

Trans Power Couple: Jake & Hannah Graf

There are lies people tell us to keep us in line. You’ve heard them. Some are relatively harmless. Be good or Santa won’t bring you any presents.

Introducing American Hysteria's The Gay Agenda

The purse-carrying, tutu-wearing purple Teletubby Tinky Winky was outed as a homosexual in 1999, capping off a decade of conspiratorial anti-gay writings and videos that influenced politics straight up to supreme court. Accused of using kids shows and public schools to influence impressionable minds and recruit new young homosexuals, the gay militants were secretly powerful agents of a massive conspiracy to bring down traditional American values and take over the country. The creation of the Gay Agenda theory borrowed from a long history of devastating misinformation and a concerted effort to rid America of this apparent moral disease without mercy, a process that began as the first puritans encountered tribal communities with ways shockingly different than their own, and began their own anti-gay crusade that has lasted centuries.Be sure to follow Chelsey and American Hysteria on IG!
