Queerdaho

About Queerdaho

Queerdaho is your unapologetically queer dispatch from the Wild West of Idaho. Hosted by Taylor, a cis lesbian with a passion fueled by righteous anger and too much covfefe, and Crickett, a nonbinary drag performer with no time for anyone's BS, this podcast breaks down the latest anti-LGBTQ+ bills and policies threatening our rights, lives, and happiness. It's smart(ish), it's angry (often), it's funny (we hope, because if we don't laugh, we'll cry)—and it's always rooted in love for our community and neighbors. Whether you live in Idaho or are listening from afar, we're all Queerdahoan!

   In case we haven't been clear...FUCK ICE

   Welcome back, Queerdos! In light of the DHS push to oust folks on social media who are critical of I.C.E., we wanted to make sure that we cleared up a few things: fuck ICE, fuck racism, and fuck any piece of shit that's in the Epstein files. In case we haven't been clear! Today, we'll talk a little about the I.C.E. presence in Idaho, as well as a well-earned salute to a brave woman who survived a forever yeet attempt by a border patrol agent. We've got some great reccomendations for you, as well as information on Stand with Minnesota, a collection of resources so we can provide support to our friends on the ground in Minneapolis!
