106. Long Live Queer Nightlife (with Amin Ghaziani)
In previous episodes, we discussed how the shifting dynamics of gayborhoods and dating app culture have impacted queer nightlife. While the closure of traditional gay bars might be viewed by some as a cause for concern, it fosters a broader conversation about the organic evolution of queer social spaces.
In this episode, Amin Ghaziani, Professor of Sociology and Canada Research Chair in Sexuality and Urban Studies at the University of British Columbia and author of six books and countless academic articles, joins us to discuss his research and findings on today’s queer nightlife and how we can all work together to create a future where every individual finds belonging and celebration in our shared spaces.
