Kay Jay and Shim Sham have A LOT to say today!
They will explore the horrors of the world - both imaginary (scary) and the very real horrors in our lives (scarier). Kay Jay gets interviewed about their love of horror films and how it fits into their queer life experience.
In the wake of the news coming out about the Supreme Court striking down Roe v Wade - Take extra care of yourself to make sure you aren't burning out on the terrible news. Stand in solidarity with others and yourself if you are able. Check out our links below to help you find ways to engage with the world. We love you.

Vegan? Plant Based? Flexitarian?
Martian?
Today, Kay Jay and Shim Sham discuss their past and present experiences with going vegetarian, vegan and plant based. The conversation centers around their own experiences, and in no way is meant to serve as dietary advice. That's between you, your doctor, and the goddess.
Live your life! And try not to be a jerk to other people. Or animals.

An addendum- Kay Jay did end up testing positive for Covid. Thankfully, they are vaccinated and boosted against the virus and their case is mild. Here at the Queermocast, we believe that everyone should get vaccinated if they are able and have no health complications that prevent it. We also believe that the vaccine can and should be shared with the world in order to put an end to this pandemic.

Boo!
QUICK EDIT: Kyle incorrectly stated that Ed Gein attacked an employee at a hardware store in DODGEVILLE, WI. The hardware store Ed Gein attacked an employee of was in PLAINFIELD, WI, not DODGEVILLE. DODGEVILLE has a Subway haunted by the ghost of a couple who were killed in a tragic hit and run collision in the early 80's.
Welcome to the first every spooky episode of Steer Queer! Come on a journey through the macabre, the gruesome, and the real life experiences we have to share with all of you. Austin will send chills down your spine with local tales of local folklore. And Cody and Kyle show everyone that their religious upbringings totally didn't mess them up. At all. They're FINE.
