    Mental Health with No Therapist: A QBT Check-In

    Howdy, sluts! We missed you. We missed each other. We are not quite ready for season 3, but wanted to offer a little check-in on how we've been navigating our own mental health... without a therapist. How are we practicing what we preach? We talk about acting despite feelings, utilizing community, physical activity, and more! Up first, we play Sup Slut? The Game to get caught up on the last 4 months or so. We look forward to bringing you new content this summer. Thank you for your patience and love. And thank you all for 10k+ Downloads!    Listen to our playlist on Spotify.  We are in Feedspot's list of Top 45 Gay Podcasts!   Follow us on instagram and twitter:   @qbtpod   @mattyjerms   @shawnyboy   Big thanks to Momager Alie Kilts, and music contributions from Chanti Darling and Maarquii.

    Spiderman, Spiritual Healing, & Bodywork with Zac Ensign, LMT

    This session we are closing out 2021 & our series on spiritual healing and mental health with our good friend, Zac Ensign. Zac is an LMT, past life regression hypnotist, artist, and community builder. They share with us how massage and hypnosis have been helpful for their traumatic healing, how queerness influences their own practice, and hesitations with new age "toxic positivity." Up first, Shawny shares his excitement with No Way Home and we do not talk about Yellowjackets because he's already read Lord of the Flies. See y'all in 2022. Love you.  Episode Content Warning: Discussions of disordered eating and suicide Thank you for your likes, comments, subscribes, and 5-star reviews.

    Sort Of, Harlem, and Spiritual Healing with Gary D‘andre

    We are joined once again by our friend, Gary D'andre (aka gangstagurry) to talk about his understanding of spiritual healing and mental health. As a Black, gay man from a Southern Baptist background (the B in QBT stands for baptized), Gary offers a nuanced perspective to the spiritual healing market. Gary shares his thoughts on tarot, reiki, the "god wound," and fine-tuning one's intuition. Up first, Shawny and Jerms chat about HBO's Sort Of and our perspective of Harlem. This episode is full of joy and vulnerability and we are beyond thrilled to share it with you.    Thank you for your likes, comments, subscribes, and 5-star reviews.

    Spiritual Healing and Mental Health

    We are kicking off our new topic: Spirituality and Mental Health. The babes talk about how spirituality and mental health practices mix, and what they struggle with and celebrate within their definitions of spirituality for themselves. Up first, we say f*ck the Grammy's, review our Spotify Wrapped, and ask the tough question: where is Keyshia Cole? Later this month we will be talking to spiritual healers and practitioners, so stay tuned!    Thank you for your likes, comments, subscribes, and 5-star reviews.
