He says one agent asked him why he has so many “gay clothes” and if he was “sick” upon seeing his PrEP medication and his fiber pills.  In this episode of “UNCLOSETED, with Spencer Macnaughton,” Miles sits down for his first on-camera interview to explain his experience, what he thinks Prime Minister Mark Carney should do in response to this treatment and why he believes all LGBTQ travelers should avoid the U.S. right now. ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.

episode White Supremacists and Lone Wolves Are Absent From Trump's Counterterrorism Strategies. Why? cover

White Supremacists and Lone Wolves Are Absent From Trump's Counterterrorism Strategies. Why?

On May 6, the Trump administration released their new counterterrorism strategy [https://www.whitehouse.gov/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/2026-USCT-Strategy-1.pdf]. It delineated three “major types of terror groups,” including “narcoterrorists and transnational gangs,” “legacy Islamist terrorists” and “violent left-wing extremists, including anarchists and anti-fascists.” In a glaring departure from the Biden administration’s strategy focused on far-right extremists and white supremacists, the Trump administration is cracking down on ideology that they call “anti-American, radically pro-transgender, and anarchist.”  In this episode of “UNCLOSETED, with Spencer Macnaughton,” Spencer talks with Jon Lewis, a researcher at the Program on Extremism at George Washington University, as well as University of Maryland distinguished psychology professor Arie Kruglanski, to learn about what this new characterization of terrorism means for the safety of LGBTQ people and the security of all Americans.  “UNCLOSETED, with Spencer Macnaughton” is a new podcast by Uncloseted Media, an investigative LGBTQ-focused nonprofit news publication.

Our Journalist Spoke to Four Trans Foster Kids Who All Attempted Suicide. Why?

LGBTQ kids make up a third [https://www.hrc.org/resources/lgbtq-youth-in-the-foster-care-system] of the American foster care system and transgender kids enter it at five times [https://perma.cc/APP3-9ZCC] the rate of the general population. But in 2026, there are few legal protections for LGBTQ youth in the system. Uncloseted Media’s Sam Donndelinger spoke with case workers, advocates and survivors of the foster care system and uncovered why it’s failing trans kids [https://www.unclosetedmedia.com/p/150-homes-in-10-years-how-the-foster]. In this episode of “UNCLOSETED, with Spencer Macnaughton,” Spencer sits down with Sam and breaks down the story’s key findings.  “UNCLOSETED, with Spencer Macnaughton” is a new podcast by Uncloseted Media, an investigative LGBTQ-focused nonprofit news publication.

episode ‘I’m Hopeful’: The President of Gays for Trump Speaks Out cover

‘I’m Hopeful’: The President of Gays for Trump Speaks Out

Peter Boykin founded Gays for Trump 10 years ago as an organization to “get out the vote” for gay Trump supporters during the president’s first run for office. The organization grew fast by creating Facebook campaigns and hosting events at the Republican National Convention. Now, over one year into Trump’s second term, Boykin’s group is smaller but still boasts 11,000 members.  In this episode of “UNCLOSETED, with Spencer Macnaughton,” Spencer sits down with Boykin to learn about why he remains “hopeful for Donald Trump” despite his disagreements about how the president has been handling LGBTQ issues. “UNCLOSETED, with Spencer Macnaughton” is a new podcast by Uncloseted Media, an investigative LGBTQ-focused nonprofit news publication.

Liker at det er både Podcaster (godt utvalg) og lydbøker i samme app, pluss at man kan holde Podcaster og lydbøker atskilt i biblioteket.
