A Gay & His Enby 228: Love Island: Oops All Villains
2w ago01:44:23Tap to summarizeThis episode, Eamon & Merlin talk Dennis rearing his ugly head on Real Housewives of Atlanta; a reproposal and a possible marriage ending scandal on Real Housewives of Rhode Island; Kristen and Luke on the edge on The Valley; and Kenzie becoming the unexpected villain on Love Island USA. 3:26 - Real Housewives of Atlanta: Season 17: Episode 11 22:07 - Real Housewives of Rhode Island: Season 01: Episode 12 39:16 - The Valley: Season 03: Episode 12 1:03:17 - Love Island USA: Season 08: Week 3 We are Eamon and Merlin, a queer married couple from Texas living in Pittsburgh, PA. We love reality television, wrestling, drag queens, and pretty much anything that can be called even kinda gay. A Gay & His Enby is a podcast where we talk about everything we love in terms of media and pop culture; everything thats gay and gay adjacent; basically all the conversations we have in our living room we are now putting in front of a microphone and on the internet for you. We have launched our MERCH STORE! We are so excited to bring you these designs, all made by Merlin, commemorating some of our favorite iconic moments! Shop now at https://AGayAndHisEnby.Threadless.com Every week, we have the pleasure and privilege of recording from Sorgatron Media Studios in Pittsburgh. The theme song for our main show is Pulsar by Shane Ivers, and the theme song for Binge Watch is Higher Up by Shane Ivers, both of which you can find at https://www.silvermansound.com All of our social media can be found at our linktree: https://linktr.ee/agayandhisenby We want to take a moment to uplift a powerful resource: 👉 Nationwide Bail Funds and Immigration Support from So Informed. This is a direct action guide that helps connect people to immigration bail funds, mutual aid efforts, and legal support across the country. Let us be crystal clear: A Gay & His Enby stands for immigrant rights. Period. We stand against the racism, xenophobia, and violent white supremacy driving Trump, his administration, and the illegal ICE raids terrorizing immigrant communities. This isn’t just politics—it’s about people. Families being torn apart. Communities being surveilled and silenced. And the same systems that criminalize immigrants also criminalize Black people, trans people, queer people, disabled people—anyone who doesn’t fit white supremacist standards of “belonging.” We believe: 🖤 No human being is illegal. 🖤 Borders are violent. 🖤 Solidarity means action, not just vibes. If you’ve ever wondered how to help, this guide is a great place to start. Share it. Donate if you can. Speak out even when it’s uncomfortable. None of us are free until all of us are free. In recent years, states have pushed forward a record number of bills that attack LGBTQ rights, especially transgender youth. The current obession with Drag Queens is no exception. This is a thinly veiled attempt to outlaw gender expressions that do not fall within the cisheteronormative guidelines.
