How Podcasts Have Accelerated Queer Representation
Podcasts are easily accessible, long-form content with a relatively low barrier to entry — and they are on an exponential rise. LGBTQ+ focused podcasts are not new, but more have emerged with a range of focus areas from queer sex education, dating & relationships, coming out, mental health, pop culture, and humor. This translates to more LGBTQ+ creators having a platform to communicate with, educate, and entertain queer and allied audiences. Join a line-up of LGBTQ+ podcast hosts and producers as they discuss the current and future state of queer representation in the podcast industry.
