About the Podcast

Bad Gays is a podcast about evil and complicated queers in history. From  Alexander the Great to J. Edgar Hoover, our history is littered with  them. Unlike the easy heroes, however — people like Oscar Wilde, Audre  Lorde or Alan Turing — we rarely remember them as queer, or as gay. And  yet their sexuality was just as important an influence on their life as  those whom we celebrate. Over the course of our podcast, we profile  queer people from the past whose lives have been overlooked by queer  people on the search for historical icons. Among their ranks are  emperors and criminals, fascist thugs and famous artists, austere  puritans and debauched bon viveurs, yet all of them have one thing in  common — they engaged in same-sex or gender non-conforming behaviour  that, in the context of today’s society, we would understand as gay or queer.

“Have you ever heard the term Killer Fruit? It’s a certain kind of queer who has Freon refrigerating his bloodstream.” 

- Truman Capote,   who knew of what she spoke.
