It’s that time of the week! The latest installment of Queerty: The Podcast, our weekly breakdown of the biggest headlines of queer news and pop culture, is here and oh so queer.
On this week’s episode, host Gabe González talks everything from Kate Winslet’s running tally of closeted actors, to a hate group fundraising off of a video that should’ve been taken offline by now, and why one Alabama pastor thinks there’s a demon inside gay people.
Plus, comedian Michael Henry joins in the conversation to talk about his YouTube videos and how he would personify the gay demon inside of him.

How about we take this to the next level?
Our newsletter is like a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.

This is a distressingly stupid conversion about the “representation/casting” issue. Seems like both of them want to get on movies, and want to play the gay card to get hired. Sorry honey, but let me break it down: it *is* about the money. Movie investors don’t want to jeopardize their investment on unknown actors just because they are LGBT…particularly if they aren’t as talented.
I’d rather watch Brad Pitt play a transwoman than Caitlin Jenner who thinks she can act…

Caitlin Jenner is trans? I thought he talked about regretting becoming a she and wanted to go back to a he.
It is one hundred percent about money.
But there are equally, if not better, people out there (for those roles) than people with a larger following.
Some studios are still hiring white people to play minorities because they can “pull it off” with a slight tan or have an “ambiguous” look.

Plus the draw for Average McUnknown isn’t high and movies are expensive. Somehow these folks are displeased with Gay Best Friend roles and whine they’re demeaning while demanding the gay leading roles immediately that they “deserve.”
It’d be like me demanding the president’s office for no good reason three years into working for a company. Neither I nor Henry have the chops, and it shows.

IDK if Michael Henry wants to be on TV but his content is awesome on it’s own. Dumpster Queens are the best.
