Gayish Podcast

For our 5th anniversary celebration, we talk about (and drink) blondes!

Our final live show is in Seattle THIS SUNDAY, April 10! Details at gayishpo...

Are the stereotypes of frat guys fair? Have fraternities been getting better for gay members? Is frat guy porn any good? What does Mike’s frattoo say? And how does Nick Jonas fit in? We talk about one of Kyle’s favorite topics, frat bros, live at the Treefort Music Festival in Boise, ID. Remember to email audio or written entries for the theme song contest by Friday, April 1. Also, come see us liv...

Whatever consenting adults do behind closed doors is their own business… right? While we often hear this refrain to support gay issues, we test the boundaries of its truth by discussing the uncomfortable topic of incest. We cover worldwide societal norms; the Bible; the Westermarck Effect; the theory of Genetic Sexual Attraction; step-dad, step-son, and step-brother incest porn; consanguineous rel...

Men’s makeup has made strides in availability and acceptability, but lip gloss is a perfect example of how, even in makeup, men’s products are expected to be practical, subtle, and, of course, not too feminine. We talk about stereotypes we’re ashamed to have and the rules we wish we could break. In this episode: News- 4:17 || Main Topic (Lip Gloss)- 13:47 || Gayest & Straightest- 1:00:51 On the Pa...

How much cum do you think you can handle in one episode?  Because there is so much cum.  We said cum SO many times.  We say cum far more than the number of times you should cum per month to help avoid prostate cancer.  We say at least 4 pizzas worth of cum, but that will only make sense if you listen. In this episode: News- 2:55 || Main Topic (Cum)- 14:15 || Gayest & Straightest- 1:12:47 Coming to...

Unlike my hole, the word love is overloaded.

What do Rosie O’Donnell’s brother, John McCain, GLAAD, and submission holds have in common? Surprisingly, it’s the UFC.

Anal schmanal. Sexologist, psychotherapist, and host of the podcast “Smart Sex, Smart Love” Dr. Joe Kort joins us to talk about sides, the term he coined in 2013 to describe gay men who don’t have anal sex. We also dip into straight guys, MSM (men who have sex with men), and Mike gets a little therapy about demisexuality. In this episode: News- 1:53 || Main Topic (Sides)- 16:56 || Guest (Dr. Joe K...

Taylor Swift, Nick Jonas, Drake, Lin Manuel Miranda, Jessica Hammond, Malia Civetz, Queer Rocket, and Amanda Lepore), the “gay” cava True Colours and their iffy LGBT support, and the champag...
