Ep. 40: Gay Baby Jail isn't real. It can't hurt you

This week we discuss recent happenings in gay music, from Lady Gaga hosting and performing on SNL to Chappell Roan teasing new music. And we investigate the anime convention mishap that made Brittney Griner flee the Gaylord Convention Center. Plus, it's pretty safe to assume that any Renaissance-era artist or inventor was at least a little queer. We look into the rich history of gay sex in 14th-century Florence, Italy.
