The Cost of Prideteenth | Episode 311

This week, there's a verdict in the killing of O'Shae Sibley, a new analysis questions how The New York Times has covered trans rights, and we're celebrating Black queer excellence from the Native Son Awards to our latest WNBA check-in.

In Am I A Bad Queer?, we're talking surviving the honeymoon phase without abandoning your friends, navigating income differences in a relationship, and what acceptance really looks like when your family refuses to acknowledge your partner. Plus, Bad Queer Opinions on bandwagoning in women's sports and whether the price of Pride is getting too high.
