Formerly Straight

By: Sloan Pecchia and Warren Hastings
  • Summary

  • On Formerly Straight, Sloan & Warren dissect pop culture, the role of femininity & masculinity, & being queer in the modern world. Whether you’re still dressing for the male gaze or wearing cargo shorts & flip flops, they’re here to say, “Same.” As our two hosts, & occasional guests unpack the gay world around them, you’ll find yourself wondering, “How do they balance sincerity AND hilarity?” To those of you already initiated into the Alphabet Mafia, thank you for your service. To the straights stumbling their way out of the gray & into the rainbow…boy do they have a pack of skittles for you.

  • My (Not So) Broken Vagina
    Dec 8 2022

    Before taking a break for the ‘22 holidays, Sloan & Warren address the Club Q shooting & give Sam Smith & Kim Petras their flowers for going number one on the charts with their song “Unholy,” during their iconic show segment, Queer News Alert (QNA). The besties then get into one of their most vulnerable topics yet: the vagina. Sloan takes us through how her vagina went from broken to partially repaired, as she describes what pelvic floor physical therapy is, how vaginismus sounds kinda like a holiday, and how despite what the legends may say, sex isn’t supposed to hurt.

  • The Queervolution
    Oct 27 2022

    Happy Queer History Month! In this week’s Queer News Alert the besties discuss Madonna (maybe?) coming out, the implications of having a green velvet couch and Ed Sheeran’s strange habit of gifting penis statues. S&M then dive into some queer history, while discussing how our language has evolved over the years to become more inclusive, including the shifts that have occured in how we understand being queer within ourselves and as a society.

    *This episode was inspired by a Queer History thread that Sloan found on Twitter by Hugh Ryan, a writer, historian, and curator who specializes in queer topics.
