In our inaugural episode we talk first about who we are & why we're podcasting, and share our goals for the pod; before getting into our experiences of being 'out' as a Bi brotha, personal history with Bi activism, and our working definitions of "fluidity" (02:35 )
We touch on some pop culture with a discussion that flows through Lil Nas X "Montero" video (12:40 ), hip-hop objectification & double standards, reading the Pornhub data, Black (& White!) queer bodies, and Queerbating & LGBTQIA representation amongst our comic-book-movie heroes (19:20 )
We get into portrayals of historic Bi icons in Black community & media (23:52 ), Bi mentors who have touched our personal lives, and the Bi-erasure apparent in the legacies of heroes like Malcolm X, Richard Pryor and James Baldwin (32:50 )
We circle back to some discussions from the Black Lotus Project on disclosure politics & biphobia in the Black community, after sharing a bit about BLP, and other work of its founders, brothers Dadefumi & Herukhuti, including Recognize: the Voices of Bisexual Men https://robynochs.com/2014/09/08/recognize-the-voices-of-bisexual-men/ & the NoHomoNoHetero film https://nohomonohetero.com/support-the-movement/ (35:06 )
