Hope in the Time of Dumpster Fires

Panic, Politics, and Policy (feat. Stephen Petrus)

On June 11, the LaGuardia and Wagner Archives opened their exhibit: Panic, Politics, and Policy: New York City during the AIDS Crisis, 1981 - 1996 [https://www.laguardiawagnerarchive.lagcc.cuny.edu/EdPrograms/LGBTQ_Exhibits.aspx?Exhibit=AIDS], featuring the one and only Tom Duane. Tom brings on Archives Director, Stephen Petrus, to talk about the exhibit and the monumental historical moments it covers.

The Unofficial Pride Party (feat. Sam Small)

It’s June, baby, and that means it’s Pride Month, so Sam asks Tom personal and ridiculous pride-themed questions, all in the name of gay.

Synchronicity and The Dalai Lama

Everyone is having a hard time. Blake is under the weather and Tom’s dog passed away. So, Tom and Blake want to know: are our loved ones really gone? As per usual, this is only semi-discussed, but we do get some stories about straight representatives making out, the Dalai Lama, and The Grateful Dead.

Missionary of Sorts

Blake and Tom are back to talk about the book, which sort of happens, but Tom mostly pries into Blake’s ghostwriting history.

Rebrand Alert: How We Can Save The World

The doctor’s orders are in, the book is getting a new title and you're getting a new prescription: Prep, Help, Hope. But wait, even with this treatment, will the young activists apply it? Tom, Blake, and Sam discuss this, and the true potential for a new radical movement.
