Episode 8 - Aging Gaysians
This is a bit of a chaotic episode where one of the co-hosts came on super late, may be he's just did not want to talk about today's topic - aging.
We all don't want to age, but it is inevitable, so how come there aren't a lot of conversation surrounding the topics of LGBT elder care? Non, Jae, and Ricky talk about their fears surrounding aging and where would be a better place for them gaysians to retire - US or Asia?

Episode 3 — Superstitions and other things we stupidly believe
It’s not Halloween but us three gaysians can still get easily creeped out - but who can blame them when they have been hearing all the superstitious sayings growing up!
From the curse of peeing in the woods, to the curse of seaweed soups. Dare us to pick between failing an exam or marrying a bearded man - just don’t press the 4th floor on the elevator.
