In this unflinching episode of Queer Times, Harrison and Kristen return to the mic after a chaotic few weeks to unpack the state of a country in crisis. From hate crimes during Provincetown’s Circuit Week to the deadly floods in Texas and the dystopian horror of “Alligator Alcatraz,” this episode dives deep into the increasingly normalized cruelty in American politics.
They explore the failures of emergency response, the scapegoating of immigrants, and how fear is being weaponized to distract from real issues like healthcare, infrastructure, and community safety.
Equal parts furious and fearless, this episode asks: what happens when we stop recognizing each other’s humanity—and how do we fight to bring it back?
