On our season 2 finale AND one-year anniversary of the pod, we catch up on Lady Gaga-induced psychosis, Towa Bird looking a mess at Paris Fashion Week, Ian McKellen telling other actors to come out, and Rosie O'Donnell fleeing the country. Plus, we play some games, reminisce on the past year and get a little silly with an infamous gay party drug.

We're taking a few weeks off, but we'll be back before you know it for season 3.

We offer a retrospective on the Oscars and volunteer our services if they're having podcast hosts do red carpet interviews. We're anticipating new music from Chappell Roan and Ariana Grande. But, on the other hand, Harry Styles hasn't been in the studio because he's been training for a marathon? And he's really fast? Plus, Armie Hammer of "Call Me By Your Name" and eating people fame tried being gay but didn't like it very much.

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.
