  • Revisit Your Graves with Award Winning Author and Activist George M. Johnson

    Revisit Your Graves with Award Winning Author and Activist George M. Johnson
    2026/10/05
    George M. Johnson dials into the Hung Up Podcast this week for a personal conversation about HIV, advocacy, grief, healing, censorship, and the journey to becoming your most authentic self. We unpack what led George to tell this next chapter of their story in And If I Die Before I Wake, how they transformed grief and loss into hope, and how being the author of one of America’s most banned books has shaped their advocacy and voice. From the realities we don’t always say out loud to the resilience and joy that keep us moving forward, George gets vulnerable about what it means to survive, evolve, and keep telling your story unapologetically. instagram.com/iamgmjohnson https://l1nq.com/81mf0km

    ☎️ This week I'm hung up on past guest Dr. Shanea Thomas and the Nolan Wells cell phone forensic report that Ben Crump just released. What happens when gaming, HIV advocacy, queer youth, and community collide? This week on the Hung Up Podcast, we’re getting into the REAL work behind creating safer, more connected spaces for LGBTQ+ people. Rosko shares his HIV advocacy work journey, we celebrate one year on the Philly Black Pride Board, and unpack his connection to the growing Queer gamer community.

  • Kaepernick, Fat Joe & Philly Black Pride Shows Up for Community

    Kaepernick, Fat Joe & Philly Black Pride Shows Up for Community
    2026/09/14
    This week on Hung Up, we’re unpacking: Ten years after Colin Kaepernick took a knee, we look at what his protest changed and what it cost him. A decade later, is America finally honest about what that moment was really about? Then, a shoutout to Philly Black Pride for showing up for unhoused LGBTQ+ youth and putting community care into action this past weekend. Because Pride isn’t just about a party! And finally… Fat Joe said what?! Let’s get into whether a Latino rapper should use the N-word, why his explanation isn’t sitting right with everybody, and the bigger question underneath it all: who gets to claim language that was created through Black American history and experience?

  • The Legends Are Leaving Us & America’s Reckoning with Kellen Myers

    The Legends Are Leaving Us & America’s Reckoning with Kellen Myers
    2026/08/31
    Full episode also on YouTube ☎️ This week we’re giving flowers while people can still smell them. We’re talking about the LGBTQ+ community, the icons and legends we’ve lost, and why it’s so important to celebrate the people who helped shape our culture and our lives while they’re still here. We also take a moment to remember Nolan Wells and reflect on the impact people leave behind. And then… 🇺🇸 Is Trump simply a political phenomenon or is he a reckoning? A mirror forcing the country to confront who we’ve always been, what we’ve tolerated, and where we’re headed? It’s a conversation about legacy, loss, accountability, and giving people their flowers before the funeral. youtube.com/@UCfsCUyAB9SHRwbu4T1Lv_Iw
