    A Shift in LGBTQ+ College Support, An Unhinged Sermon and WNBA Expansion Excitement
    2025/07/16
    LGBTQ+ college students might be on summer break, but how are their universities changing support services while they are gone? A pastor in Indiana recently gave a sermon that went all kinds of viral – just how far from “love thy neighbor” did his words stray? The WNBA has announced they’re expanding to three new cities – it’s a big deal for queer representation and fans! And legislation around trans athletes that didn’t go horribly… is that even possible? Joining us this week to talk about those stories and more are: Freelance editor and writer, and former editor of the Philadelphia Gay News, Jason Villemez Managing Editor of Windy City Times, Jake Wittich Digital Editor for Indiana Public Broadcasting, Lauren Chapman Play “Indiana’s Legislative Trail” at https://ipbs.org/projects/indianalegislativetrail/intro.html Keep up with The Buckeye Flame online: Website: https://thebuckeyeflame.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thebuckeyeflame/ Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/thebuckeyeflame.com Support for This News is So Gay comes from the LGBTQ+ Opportunity Fund of the Cleveland Foundation, leveraging philanthropy to empower LGBTQ+ communities.

    The Anything But Beautiful Bill, LGBTQ+ Funding Woes & Dumb Ohio Bills
    2025/07/09
    President Trump may be calling it a “Big Beautiful Bill”, but LGBTQ+ advocates are saying the budget is anything but. What could this legislation mean for our community? The state of Virginia is rolling back protections against the discredited and harmful practice of conversion therapy. What does this mean for minors there? It looks like the Supreme Court will be wading into whether the handful of trans athletes in the country will still be able to compete. What can we expect judicially? Joining us this week to talk about those stories and so much more are: Managing director of News is Out, Dana Piccoli Editor-in-Chief of the Ohio Capital Journal, David DeWitt. Communications Lead and Spokesperson for the U.S. PLHIV Caucus and the host of the HIV Unmuted Podcast, Juan Micheal Porter II.

    LGBTQ+ Healthcare Access, Supreme Court Rulings, and 10 Years of Marriage Equality
    2025/07/02
    The Supreme Court issued a slew of rulings last week, with some LGBTQ+-related decisions that experts believe will have far reaching effects for our community. So how is life going to change? Pride Month has officially come to a close and many LGBTQ+ advocates said that Pride 2025 needed to look different… but did it? Marriage equality is officially ten years old. But some LGBTQ+ folks say it is far from settled law. What’s on the horizon? And some recent White House press conferences definitely had some… strong language in them. Joining us this week to talk about those stories and more are: LGBTQ+ Reporter for The 19th, Orion Rummler Executive Director of Queer Kentucky, Missy Spears Editor-in-chief and founder of LOOKOUT, Arizona’s statewide LGBTQ+ publication, Joseph Darius Jaafari Keep up with The Buckeye Flame online: Website: https://thebuckeyeflame.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thebuckeyeflame/ Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/thebuckeyeflame.com Support for This News is So Gay comes from the LGBTQ+ Opportunity Fund of the Cleveland Foundation, leveraging philanthropy to empower LGBTQ+ communities.
