In this episode of Queer Times, Kristen and Harrison unpack a whirlwind week in Provincetown and beyond. From the joy and chaos of Carnival—complete with slutty mosquitoes and float judging—to Paige Bueckers’ record-breaking 44-point game in the WNBA, they explore how queer culture, sports, and politics intersect.
The conversation turns serious with the removal of Pulse memorial crosswalks in Orlando, the limits of crisis-focused LGBTQ+ mental health services, and a surprising dinner exchange that highlights the importance of empathy in shifting perspectives on trans rights. From purity politics shaping 2028 elections to the corporate collapse of Target and Starbucks, Kristen and Harrison bring humor, heart, and no-nonsense critique to the headlines.
Equal parts sharp commentary and irreverent banter, this episode takes listeners from Provincetown’s sandy shores to the messy realities of American politics and capitalism—all through a queer lens.
