We took a break, but WE ARE BACK, BABES. This return is a family affair as we are joined by KEEKS MAG creative duo (and QBT superstars) Keana Marrero and Carlos Valle. We talk about new beginnings: creative identity, working with a sibling, life post-lockdown, creating community, and much more. We are so excited to share this with you and begin our season 2 journey together.
*Editor's Note: Jerms' mic is a little hot at the start of the interview... sorry :)

It's the end of Season 1! We are so excited to be joined by Mike and Travis from the Rainbow Road Podcast to talk all things gaming and how the practice influences their mental health. We talk sh*t about loud incel bros, creating community, and dating daddies. Are you a first person shooter babe, an RPG f^g, or a mentally ill farm sim angel? Up first, Shawny and Jerms reminisce about season one and offer blessings to each other for the break. Is Sour Good4Us? Are you High on the Hog? Does Nina West belong at Pride? All these answers and more... See you soon, babes.

This session we are joined by smokin' hot babe, Andrew Gurza. Andrew is a Disability Awareness Consultant and Cripple Content Creator. In their work, he seeks to explore how the lived experience of disability feels, as it interplays with intersectional communities. Andrew and the babes get into hiring sex workers, sex and mental health, whose responsibility it is to educate, and nutting handsfree on a train. (Interview begins ~00:26:30). Up first, Shawny and Jerms talk about Legendary Season 2, Amy Adams needing to fire her manager, and Gaga's most recent offering about past traumas. This episode is full of learning for us and we are so grateful to Andrew for joining us. Check out his podcast, Disability After Dark.
