This is a special ITBR rerelease! Jeremy discusses his nonfiction book Gay Bar and analyzes the ins and outs of gay bars and why we go to them. So many of Gay Bar's book reviews emphasize the reviewer's own personal experience in a gay bar so we hope you all are reflecting on your own gay bar experiences (or why you should go to one). For Andrew, he will always remember his first time at Woody's gay bar in Philly (thanks to his high school friends for taking him there)! And a moment that warms Andrew's heart is when Jeremey digs into why he includes a homoerotic Whitman quote for his epigraph.
