Call Me Limbo is your weekly dose of comedic therapy where pop culture and politics get tossed in a blender with personal stories, improv games, and zero chill. Hosted by Dai and David—two queer best friends with more opinions than filter—the show tackles everything from reality TV and music videos to capitalist hellscapes and Bad Bunny’s underwear. It’s entertainment with a little revolution on the side. Sometimes you’ll laugh until you cry. Sometimes you’ll cry until you’re organizing a union. Either way, we’re here for the drama, the joy, and the work of building a better world—with jokes. Always with jokes. We believe the personal is political, but also… pop culture is too damn fun to ignore. So whether you’re here for the Disney Channel wand impressions or a fiery takedown of billionaires—welcome. You’ve found your people because when they go low.....we go lower. So, Call Me Limbo!

    Queer & Christian: Brandan Robertson on Deconstruction and Reclaiming Faith

    Pastor and author Brandan Robertson joins us to talk about queer Christianity, deconstruction, and what it means to reclaim faith as an LGBTQ+ person. From growing up in conservative Christianity to reimagining theology through love and inclusion, Brandan shares how queer identity and Christian belief don’t have to exist in opposition. Dai and David get into what it actually means to “queer” Christianity, the messy journey of deconstruction, sexual ethics, pleasure and shame, and what “God is love” might look like as public policy. We unpack the radical nature of the historical Jesus, the tension between church and authenticity, and why community becomes essential after religious harm. If you’ve ever wrestled with belief, belonging, or rebuilding spirituality on your own terms, this conversation is honest, thoughtful, political, and surprisingly joyful.  At its core, this episode asks whether faith can be reclaimed without surrendering yourself. Go buy Brandan's book and check out his website! Register for Brandan's Queerly Christian Webinar on February 24th at 7 PM ET! And remember: when they go low, we go lower.

    Attachment Styles & Dating: Eli Harwood on Secure Relationships in an Anxious World

    Attachment styles shape how we date, argue, grieve, and show up in the world, but most of us were never taught how they actually work. In this episode, Dai and David sit down with Eli Harwood (The Attachment Nerd) to break down attachment theory, secure relationships, and why dating is inherently vulnerable. We explore how anxious and avoidant patterns show up in modern relationships, and how to move toward secure attachment without pretending the world isn’t on fire. We also dive into the “attention machine” and its impact on mental health, how to stay informed without becoming emotionally dysregulated, and why denial is such a common coping mechanism in uncertain times. From parenting to politics, grief to community care, Eli makes the case that secure attachment isn’t just personal; it’s cultural. If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by dating, doomscrolling, or trying to stay engaged without burning out, this conversation connects personal healing to societal change. Secure relationships don’t happen by accident.  They’re built intentionally. Go follow Eli on Instagram, Facebook, and YouTube! Go buy all of Eli's books! Check out all the awesome resources on the Attachment Nerd website! And remember: When they go low… we go lower.
