January gave us 31 straight days of heavy headlines, complicated feelings, and very little rest.
This week, we unpack the aftermath of Alex Pretti’s killing, talk through Kanye West’s latest apology (and what’s conveniently happening next), and discuss Brittney Griner’s new documentary debuting at Sundance Film Festival.
Plus, Am I A Bad Queer? gets into choosing white queer spaces over straight Black ones, muting activist friends for your own sanity, and rejoining dating apps before a breakup is official. We wrap with Bad Queer Opinions and a community check-in on where we even go from here with TikTok.
One of the only good things to come out of January -Bad Queers is nominated for Queerties award Best Podcast.
