and THAT's a pod convo

🚨 BREAKING NEWS: John Jacob went on a date. 🤯 No, seriously. We were just as shocked as you are. This week's Fourth of July episode starts with one innocent question: What's more American—a hot dog 🌭or a burger🍔? Before long, we're debating whether a hot dog is even a sandwich, making entirely too many jokes about a meat between two buns , questioning if sparklers ✨are secretly...

The final chapter of our Pride Series is here. Joined by Ryan Oelrich, we talk about religion, identity, marriage, finding yourself, sword swallowing (yes, the literal kind… and unfortunately the other kind too), and the winding road it takes to become comfortable in your own skin. Over the last five episodes, we’ve explored what it means to be LGBTQ+ through the lens of P.R.I.D.E. — Pretending, R...

Welcome back to and THAT’s a Pride Convo . This week, we're tackling the part of Pride nobody really warns you about: healing... unfortunately.

For the first episode of and THAT's a PRIDE convo , we're joined by Robert "Robbie" Thompson for a conversation about closets, performances, and the versions of ourselves we created long before we knew who we were. We talk about the signs we ignored, the roles we played, and the idea that maybe we're all born naked and the rest is drag. Because whether you're LGBTQ+ o...

Well… after only one official episode, Josh is no longer with us. No, seriously. Gone. Vanished. Taken by the podcast gods.
