Our very first in person recording is HERE! Kris and Shana were able to get together in New York City to record in studio for the first time. Consider this their live therapy session as they reflect on the last 4 years of Bad Queers. Reflecting on how they've changed personally, and professionally, highlights and lowlights of stories they've covered, guests and their impact, and they share future hopes and dreams for the podcast.
Then we wrap up the show reflecting on our favorite Bad Queer Opinions and special announcements for things to come!
Shoutouts:Kris: The Read Podcast - Crissle and Kid Fury. They are icons in the Black queer community, podcast legends, and they’ve been the inspiration for us. I thank them both for all the time they’ve given us. I’ll always be grateful for their vulnerability, the laughs, the insights, the reality checks they’ve given us. I hope they understand the impact they’ve had in our community. And hopefully we can get them on the show at some point. Follow them on IG @thisistheread and listen to them wherever you listen to podcasts.
Shana: George M. Johnson for being our first guest on the show. George has done amazing things in the past 4 years. When we first met George, they had just released All Boys Aren’t Blue. Now they are a bestseller, Emmy nominated, Time100 Next Influential Person and has not one, but two books released (to name just a few accolades) We appreciate you for taking a chance on us!

But what we really get into with Imara is everything love and relationships. The current dating scene in New York, where she meets people, red and green flags, dating studs and MOCs, her blind spots, harmful stereotypes of trans women and why you should get yourself a nerd.

Some good news and good mess this week.
The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission strengthens protections for trans and nonbinary employees in American workplaces for the first time in 25 years. A new International Olympic Committee-sponsored study finds that trans women athletes are at a relative disadvantage in many key physical areas compared to their cis counterparts. We also circle back on the latest updates from the Ali Krieger/Ashlyn Harris/Sophia Bush saga and ask why the Chicago Sky couldn't get a Peerspace for their Angel Reese intro press conference.
In Am I A Bad Queer, we discuss if you should seek dating advice from your friends in relationships and pride options for newly single folks.
For our Bad Queer Opinions, Shana gets to the truth of the old studs vs new studs debate and Kris asks femmes to critique each other in public more frequently.
And always remember, the world is your boxed lunch.

We've got company! This week we welcome Preston Mitchum from Bravo TV's 'Summer House: Martha's Vineyard' to discuss what it was really like to be a Reality TV Star. We dive deep into the important conversations that happened on the show, Black gay representation on reality tv and relationships with production.

Bad queer opinions range from the word lesbian not being a slur to all queer folks should try non-monogamy.

This week in queer news, in a landmark verdict, a man was charged with a federal hate crime for killing Dime Doe, a Black trans woman in South Carolina. Ron DeSatan tries to distance himself from his OWN book-banning laws. In "What About the Kids?!" news, Texas passes on a $450 million summer lunch program for low-income families. Aunjanue Ellis-Taylor criticized “The Color Purple” for “sanitizing” lesbian romance–opening up a lane for Kris to NOT watch the new movie. Gaslighting and audacity team up for episodes 7-9 of Love is Blind, and we recap the madness.
In Am I A Bad Queer, we get an update on a previous story. Plus, does it make sense to share an apartment building with your ex to co-parent your pet?

This week in category is we review Beyoncé's Superbowl, Usher's performance and that's really the main focus. Mo'Nique gave a tell all interview and how 30% of adult Gen-Z identifies as queer. In Am I a Bad Queer? We respond to questions about "reverse racism" in dating, shifting from long distance to living together and not going to church weddings. Bad Queer opinions discuss how to get the straights to disagree with the anti-trans/LGBTQ+ laws and minding your business.

If you weren't on Tik Tok, you may have missed the Queer Bar Drama that happened at the Cubbyhole with a straight woman, straight man and a lesbian - it's as messy as it sounds. We discuss our reactions to The Grammy Awards and all of the changes happening during WNBA Free Agency. In 'Am I a Bad Queer?' we discuss the use of baby/boo as flirting, Aunties being safe spaces and not wanting to celebrate Valentine's Day due to trauma.

It explores the exploitive and genocidal aspect of European colonialism, from America to Africa, and its effects today. I’d encourage anyone who hasn’t seen it to take the time to watch it. It’s dark but very insightful and powerful to watch. You can stream it on Max, YouTube, AppleTV and Google Play.

Covering it all in this episode. The Biden administration invests almost $700k in sex education for trans male youth. The Abbey's disturbing allegations have finally caught up with the infamous WeHo club. And the Oscars wouldn't be the Oscars if they didn't snub anyone– we talk nominations and controversy over who was left out.
In Am I A Bad Queer, we question the timing of "cis" being considered a slur. Is there any personal responsibility for staying with someone who cheated on you four times? Plus, how to avoid hanging out with your coworkers during your off hours.
The thought journeys continue in Bad Queer Opinions as Shana breaks down WNBA free agency and Kris makes a case for gossiping being genderless.
