About this listen
In this episode, we talk honestly about moving through competitive sports as queer kids: overachieving, staying controlled, and learning how ambition, repression, and attraction quietly overlap. Sports weren’t just an escape—they were a way to stay contained.
We unpack why Heated Rivalry hits so hard, why yearning is back (hi, Bridgerton), and how desire often lived in locker rooms, long glances, and everything left unsaid. Not because we’re attracted to every man—but because we learned to be selective, aware, and hyper-conscious of the room.
It’s vulnerable, funny, and deeply familiar—a conversation about growing up gay in sports, craving connection, and why yearning never really left.
