This week on Festive & Feral, we’re getting uncomfortable in the best way possible. We talk about facing fears and doing things that terrify you, whether that’s flying solo, traveling alone, or simply stepping outside your comfort zone. Then we dive into heavier conversations surrounding racism within parts of the gay nightlife and leather scene after controversy connected to Palm Springs’ Tool Shed bar. And finally… we unpack the internet outrage after James Charles called a laid-off Spirit Airlines employee “lazy” after she reached out asking for help finding work. Yeah. We have thoughts.

Funny, chaotic, uncomfortable, and honest, just the way we like it.

This week on Festive & Feral, we’re all over the place in the best way.

We break down ghosting culture and why people disappear out of nowhere (and whether it’s ever okay). Then things take a turn as we debate “Type A, B… and D” energy, yes, we said what you think we said and get into the chaos of dick print discourse.

We also recap our wild Renn Fair experience in St. Pete, because apparently we can’t go anywhere without something happening. And to bring things back to reality, we talk about a serious story out of Miami involving an LGBTQ son and family conflict and what it says about where we still are today.

It’s messy, funny, a little unhinged, and somehow still meaningful.
