Food and Fatphobia

As we are ALL still reeling from the results of the 2020 presidential election, our QPOC fam dissects the early returns, shares how they participated in this year’s election, and discuss what the future of the political world is looking like for us. We also take time to celebrate the many LGBTQ+ folks who recently won both local and national elections in the U.S. We might not have had the “Blue Wave” we were hoping for, but we definitely got some kind of rainbow wave.

A Girl Like Me: A Special Interview With Peppermint 

Gobble me, swallow me, drip down the side of me...that’s right y’all, today we are talking about none other than the Cardi B and Megan Thee Stallion hit “WAP”! And as a song that celebrates Black Woman empowerment, there’s plenty to cover: the double-standard of men versus women being sexual, the debate over where the song empowers or degrades women, and of course the tired-ass “what about the kids” argument. This week, Ashley and Carlos co-host as our own Cardi and Megan, and we are joined by TWO special guest femme-cees, Chantel Whitt (@chantelwhitt) and Isake Smith (@isakesmith).

Hello Moto(ki) ft. Motoki Maxted

It's a This QPOC Life summer special with none other than Bob the Drag Queen! The Black Lives Matter movement has taken center stage in the national conversation in America. And as many White people (and brands, sports teams, etc.) are “waking up” to the ills of systemic racism, we can’t help but wonder if it’s real or if it’s all for show.  On today’s episode, we discuss performative “wokeness” that we are seeing in the culture, how to spot it, and what to do when confronted by it. Then, we interview with Bob The Drag Queen, winner of season 8 of RuPaul’s Drag Race, about her recent comedy special Bob The Drag Queen, Live At Caroline’s, and discuss how she performs activism through her drag and comedy. Bob the Drag Queen, Live at Caroline's is available on the iTunes store!  GROW THE COMMUNITY If you believe in the work we are doing, invest in our success, become a Patron on Patreon!

Bob the Drag Queen and Performing Performance

On the Season 3 Finale of This QPOC Life, we talk about the goals we set at the beginning of the season and the changes we had to make. We discuss Zoom exhaustion, Zoom bombers, and how COVID-19 disproportionately affects BIPOC. As a note: This episode was recorded prior to the homicide of George Floyd. As we march to demand justice for Black lives, This QPOC Life wants to remind you that, for Queer and Trans BIPOC, looking after your mental health is an act of resistance.  Remember that you can always talk to us across social media @ThisQPOCLife. While we're away, we invite you to join our Discord community to help us grow a safer space for QTPOC. You can find the link below. Keep an eye out. You never know when we might pop up... or pop off.

The Great(est) Pumpkin

Todrick Hall

In episode 21 we had a chance to sit down with Todrick Hall during his NYC stop on his Forbidden tour. In light of his recent video “Not Black Enough”, I wanted to address some of the issues that many in the black and brown communities have criticized Hall for over the past eight to ten years. This episode also opens with one of Jo Lee’s Jamuary tracks! You can listen to them on SoundCloud.

The Caucasity and the Hypocrisy

We're flying without Carlos and Zach this week, but Johnathan and Jojo bring the dynamics and the duo. Johnathan talk about win-wins and Jo Lee makes the face melt. We cover a lot in this episode. Kingdom Hearts 3 is being released, new works by POC to celebrate, Kamala Harris is running for POTUS, and you're never too young to wear MAGA hats. We also breakdown a discussion between Mo'Nique and Whoopi Goldberg. As QPOC, do we have a responsibility to pave the way for those coming behind us? Chime in with your thoughts on social media!

The Dramatics

Acclimatizing to workplace culture can already be a tricky thing to navigate. That's especially true in corporate culture. The whole crew attended an LGBTQIA+ event that Zach put together. The panel brought folks together sharing different experiences as far as their ability to self express at work. This had us thinking about what it's like being QTPOC at corporate gigs. "Tone it down." "Everything doesn't have to be about sexuality." Binarist dress codes. These are just a few of the ways that we can be limited in the workplace. Where do these rules and microaggressions come from? What's possible when we can stop worrying about whether that nail polish is appropriate for work? What can happen when we can truly WERQ the workplace? GROW THE COMMUNITY If you believe in the work we are doing, invest in our success, become a Patron on Patreon! Thank you to all our Patrons.

Werqplace Violence

Ghosts? Gargoyles? Witch books!? October means everyone’s favorite spooky time of year. Halloween is coming which got us to thinking about ghost stories. The gang shares their experiences getting ghosted (and being the ghost). We also talk about ghosting on platonic friends. What are your ghost stories? Johnathan feels better, #ThisKetoLife gives Zach nightmares, Jo Lee talks ADHD, and Carlos is high yellow.

<h2>Ghosts? Gargoyles? Witch books!? October means everyone’s favorite spooky time of year. Halloween is coming which got us to thinking about ghost stories. The gang shares their experiences getting ghosted (and being the ghost).</h2> We also talk about ghosting on platonic friends. What are your ghost stories? Johnathan feels better, #ThisKetoLife gives Zach nightmares, Jo Lee talks ADHD, and Carlos is high yellow. <h2>GROW THE COMMUNITY</h2> If you believe in the work we are doing, invest in our success, <a href="https://www.patreon.com/ThisQPOClife" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" target="_blank">become a Patron on Patreon! </a>Thank you to all our Patrons.

The Boy Who Kicked the Beedrill's Nest

2018 left us feeling dazed and confused. Hoodwinked. Run amok. So, let's kiki and have some laughs. Johnathan makes off like a bandit, Jo Lee has bestie time, Carlos is a skinny legend with a tan, and Zach knows a seven word chorus. We discuss some QPOC victories in nominations for the Golden Globes and Grammys, what 2018 taught us, and Bloop of the Week goes to Kevin Hart.
