Jonathan the gay tortoise, a trans punk rock show and more stories for Pride Month

  • Summary

  • This week on Podcast Playlist, we're celebrating Pride month.


    In the proverbial starter pack of anti-gay slogans, there's one that has stayed consistent over the years: "It's just not natural!"


    The only problem with that...is according to science, same-sex relationships are extremely natural, occurring in all kinds of different animal species.


    We'll learn more about that from A Field Guide To Gay Animals. And we'll meet one very special gay animal: a Seychelles giant tortoise named Jonathan, who's believed to be the oldest living animal in the world.


    Plus, on the queer music podcast Sounds Gay, we'll dive into the mosh pit at a trans punk rock show, and hear how music is connecting trans folks across generational lines.


    All that and more, this week on Podcast Playlist.


    Featuring: A Field Guide To Gay Animals, The Secret Life of Canada, Sounds Gay, Blindspot: The Plague in the Shadows, Handsome, Gender Reveal
