    Great fun & ya learn something
    Brendy & Leni take you on a cheeky ride through the gay lexicon. You’ve probably heard all these words or even seen them on TV, but do you their his/herstory? Through their research, thoughtful discussion, & personal experiences they explore the richness and fabulousness of our queer language & cultures. It’s like kiki-ing with your friends, & I’m busting up whilst listening to them on the bus or at the gym. Keep serving up that good tea! Y’alls are giving me life every time an episode comes out.
