Sniffies' Cruising Confessions

Brandon Kyle Goodman, a writer and sexual wellness advocate known for his role in Big Mouth and the podcast Tell Me Something Messy, brings a unique perspective to the table. He discusses his theatrical show, Heaux Church, reimagining a sex-positive space for queer individuals to overcome religious trauma. Topics include the intersection of religion and sexual shame, the importance of communication in intimate experiences, and the power of vulnerability on stage. Expect vibrant anecdotes, including a wild Madrid Pride story, and insights on reclaiming pleasure and autonomy.

Cruising has resurged over the past decade, thanks in part to PrEP and Sniffies. But its future might look like something out of a dystopian sci-fi movie, according to journalist Leo Herrera, who followed up his hit book Analog Cruising (featured in our S1 episode “Cruising 101”) with a series of articles about how rapid advancements in AI technology may impact queer sex, cruising, and relationships. In our supersized season opener, Leo, Gabe and Chris vigorously debate the nuts, bolts, ethics and controversies over soon-to-be-ubiquitous things like synthetic companions, AI porn and yes, sex robots.
