Bad Queers

We have our first Ally (yes, breeder!) on Bad Queers. This week we welcome Otoja Abit, Writer/Director of A New York Christmas Wedding on Netflix. We discuss how Hollywood needs to do better, performative allyship, religion, secret gems of the movie and of course, Keyshia Cole or Ashanti. Be sure to watch the film and enjoy your holigays!

Shoutouts:
Shana - Imara Jones and TransLash Media for the Trans-Owned Business Directory

Kris - To @lottidot on Twitter for creating a new Black Holiday. Supposedly, according to Twitter commenters on this thread, on Dec. 21st all people with melanin are supposed to get some sort of super powers because of the rare alignment of Jupiter and Saturn in the night sky for the first time in almost 400 years. It honestly doesn’t matter if it happens, it’s going to be a fun day online. We have to take our good days.

Otoja - Marsha P. Johnson Institute

It's big switch appreciation week (not really, but it should be!)! Baby Gay celebrities are taking over in the best ways. Who invited The Weeknd to the Superbowl? Can't say that we are surprised but Lovecraft Country and all LGBTQ+/Black films deserve better than these Not So Golden Globe nominations. At least the NAACP did a bit better. Also, are you a straight chaser?

Honestly breeders, straight tv/movies/media is to blame for our queerness. Rest in power to Monica Roberts, a genuine shoutout to Pete Buttigieg and Bill Burr's SNL skit was actually hilarious. Also, fake girlfriends, wives who are fuckboi's and giving phone numbers to straight men.

This week we are joined by the amazing hosts of Gayish Podcast, Mike and Kyle, to continue our discussion about intersectionality. We did this with a slight twist, by asking questions that Shana and Kris typically receive as black, queer women and flipping it to ask white, gay men. Spoiler alert: we had a blast.

Alright, not Bette Porter, but her doppleganger Kamala Harris is officially the Democratic Nominee for Vice President. And when we weren't discussing this, Zoe Kravitz called out Hulu's diversity problem, the WNBA continues to make moves in athlete protests and period leave is becoming a thing. Bad Queer opinions around lesbians and gays being bullies to bisexual people and bro culture needs to be cancelled. All this and more in this weeks episode!

Unpopular Queer Opinion: Pose literally deserves SO MUCH more, but attacking Billy Porter won't help. We break down pronouns, steamy dreams about exes and both the Emmy's and GLAAD awards.

Remember, your ex is trash that needs to stay on the curb, don't bring that back in your house. In other news, Barbados and Mexico are winning, I guess Taylor Swift dropped an album...and studs/MOC folks deserve a genderless clothing line. That and more in this weeks episode.

After facing casting backlash, Rub & Tug commits to a trans lead for the role of Dante “Tex” Gill. The Pentagon bans Confederate flags from all military bases then cancels the progressive step out by banning the Pride flag. The workplace culture at The Ellen DeGeneres show is exposed. We explain why/how communication, patience, and possibly the neck is the way to free your touch-me-not studsband. And we gotta let carpet mucher/carpet munching go - the phrase not the act.

Halle Berry shows us what accountability culture can look like. Cis white gays and Just Karen Rowling are at it again, signing cancel culture petitions and partying on Fire Island during a pandemic - seriously stop it. Bisexual, black, Batwoman. Finding the right LGBTQ+ label, polyamorous gone monogamous and Bad Queer Opinions that might be talking to you if you played softball and drive a Subaru.

It's time to talk about intimate partner violence. Also, when you find out your friend is a TERF, it's time to breakup with them. Rest in Power Brayla Stone, cities are signing petitions to recognize Marsha P. Johnson and my best friend is dating someone else and I'm jealous? And if you didn't read the title, WATCH DISCLOSURE! All this and holding BET accountable in this weeks episode.

Seriously, to the gays partying in the streets without masks - Stop it. Put on your gotdamn mask and listen to this episode of Bad Queers. Praise be, The Chi is back, DACA is being protected and Raven Symoné got married in all her rainbow braided glory. Lots of advice from coming out as bisexual when in a straight appearing relationship, and a woman who identifies as asexual feeling over sexualized. Lastly, with no surprise, the "Chad's" of the world are at it again in this episode of Bad Queers.

What's in a deadname? Or do you even know the meaning of it? This week we dive into the surprising supreme court ruling for LGBTQ+ discrimination at work, #VogueChallenge and someone who needs advice about why they don't want to date within their race. And what type of Bad Queers would we be if our unpopular queer opinion didn't have an update with Chick Fil A or how trash the white celebrity ally video was.

Did Lady G deserve to be outed? LA Pride...you f*cked up. Beyoncé said my queerness and my blackness is beautiful and all is right in the world (LOL if only, but it helps). And we take a deep dive into the recent comments from Just Karen Rowling about the Transgender community.

Come to Bad Queers therapy, where we switch up the schedule a bit to focus on what is happening in America right now. Black Lives Matter, George Floyd and how White Gays are ruining the brand. We sprinkle some gospel music and vans debate on the end. What a ride.

You know we have to break down Christian Cooper vs. Amy Cooper (No Relation) situation. We have found a couple of companies doing it right, before Pride month. Say his name, #GeorgeFloyd. Am I a bad queer? Discusses being over only talking about my queerness to what happens when you don't like sex toys during sex? Also, Kris hates musicals. What a week.

Say it with me: Studs can be feminine too! The depths of Janelle Monáe's Instagram Live videos, the trailer for Legendary has dropped and our first Bad Queer has arrived during our Am I a Bad Queer? Advice segment.

Welcome! You're officially part of the Bad Queers Club. This podcast is for people who feel like they came out of the closet and got placed in a box. It’s time to put the u-haul theory to bed, and connect over being bad queers. 

Join Kris and Shana from the HER App to discuss breaking stereotypes, owning your identity and their unpopular queer opinions. Bad queers will leave you both offended and inspired by the news, stories and advice about the very fluid, very real LGBTQ+ experience.
