Ep. 11: It Goes to Eleven

Be Gay Do Piracy

Podcast-ception! Podcaster and game designer August Gates shares their insights about fictionalizing history--and what that means for our gay pirate brainrot. Then BGDP superfan Jenne Foronjy chats with us about Pride, about making playlists, and about connecting with beloved (and hated) characters. Don't worry, there's time for Jenn to squeeze in a extra-special pirate joke and Lea to spill some beans about a new irl venture: Drag!
