Trans Leather History Unleashed: Honoring The Past, Present & Future

Welcome, family, to a very special episode of Wonder’s Spotlight. This time, host Jayy Wonder takes us on a deep, unflinching journey into the often-overlooked history of trans people in the leather community.More than just an episode—this is a living archive. A long-form reflection on identity, authenticity, and resilience, told through stories that span decades. From post-WWII roots and the rise of leather bars to battles for inclusion and the powerful presence of trans folks in leather today, we explore the people and moments that shaped a culture—and continue to transform it.Why leather? Because leather has always been about truth. About claiming space in a world that would rather you disappear. And that’s exactly what trans people have done, generation after generation.Unfolding across time and memory, this episode honors those who were erased, remembers those who resisted, and centers the voices and histories too often pushed to the margins.Settle in—whether you listen all at once or piece by piece, this story is for all of us. You’re not just hearing history. You’re part of it.

Becoming an Icon & Leader in the Leather Community

What makes someone an icon & leader in the community? is it awards? the titles? The Gear? Status? Or something deeper...The service, survival & showing up when it counts really what makes a leader?In this episode I will take you on a personal & community rooted journey through what it really means to lead & make a way to be an icon. Not by chasing the spotlight but by being the light. From mentorship & activism to presence & principle, we will breakdown what it means to carry this culture with pride, purpose and accountability. We talk about the heavy truth that being a leader isn't always glamorous, its work. Its healing. Its holding space. And sometimes, its showing up for someone who thought no one would. Whether you're brand new to the leather scene or decades deep, this episode is for those ready to rise, give back and maybe just maybe become the icon & leader someone else needs.This isn't just a conversation its a spark.

Was CLAW 25 all about Honor, Integrity & Respect

In this episode, we delve deep into CLAW 25, a non-contest leather event held in Cleveland, Ohio, from April 17-20. CLAW, short for Cleveland Leather Away Weekend, has been organizing such events for 24 years. Given its long-standing presence in the leather community, one would expect a well-organized convention. However, my personal experience at CLAW 25 revealed a complete lack of situational awareness and thought that went into this event. In this episode, we will explore the diversity, visibility, accessibility, and integrity of CLAW through my own experiences. I publicly shared my thoughts on the convention, and they did respond. While I’m not certain if the entire board addressed me, any response is better than none. We will discuss their response and delve into my overall experience. How does an organization sign with honor , integrity & respect when we experience the lack of it this year!!!! So, get ready for an exciting episode of Wonder Spotlight! Stay tuned for all the juicy details.
