    From Darkroom Lust to Dawn Romance: Gay Love After the Grind EP 736

    What if falling in love didn’t start with dinner? What if it started in a club, in a blur of bodies — and still became something real? Many gay men’s relationships don’t start with courtship — they start with attraction and physical contact (e.g., hookups on Grindr, at bars, in clubs). The hosts share how they met their partners... In the movie 'Paris: 5:59' Théo and Hugo meet literally mid-sexual encounter — and from that physical meeting comes emotional curiosity. Does this mirror gay experiences — meeting someone in a wild context and discovering a real connection? The hosts share how physical can turn to emotional and how to keep that alive... Hot Topic: Stonewall Pride flag is back up with new legislation to keep it up plus celebrities talk about the meaning of the Pride flag Hot Topic: Austin Wolf shaves off 4 years of his sentencing... Hot Topic: A new study says that young college students check their phone during sex! Hot Topic: The Winter Olympics village has a shortage of condoms...

    Bigorexia, GLP-1s and; The Gay Gaze: When Perfect Isn’t Enough EP 730

    We breakdown how some gay men are obsessed with being bigger based on a recent mini-doc "Behind the Bulk: The Hidden World of Gay Men on Steroids" The hosts share their own stories on their bodies, working out and how that has affected dating and more... “If anorexia is the terror of not being thin enough, swolexia is the terror of not being big enough,” narratively describing how these mirror anxieties function as opposite poles of the same disorder. In the gay community, these pressures can be intensified by the gay look: muscular, lean, polished, photographed — a perceived currency in social/romantic markets. Some clinicians and community members argue that muscle dysmorphia has become one of the most significant body image issues impacting gay men, almost like a parallel crisis to HIV/AIDS in its psychological and social impact. We discuss... Advice: We offer advice related to today's topic on whether or not someone should go on dates if they are struggling with body image? Hot Topic: What are some red flags guys in their 50's should look out for when going on dates? Hot Topic: It's all things "Heated Rivalry" - The show that keeps on giving...
