Welcome to the messiest first time since American Pie! On our first episode, four people born in the 90s discuss things that have happened before we were even tho[ugh]ts. Isaac Lemeur, esteemed gay, joins us for a riling conversation on the history of gentrification and its effect on queer lives of color today. We don't have the answers, but we DO have a bitchin' time!
