OutSpoken

Sam Collins & Studio71
The internet today is FILLED with bad comedians, outdated ideologies, hate speech, and good old misogyny repacked as a “hot take”. You can’t go anywhere online without running into it, and sometimes you just want to BREATHE. Welcome to Outspoken, hosted by Sam & Shannon. We’re a LGBT couple who have seen it all, been called it all, and are ready to take on the never-ending world of online opinions with a smile. Each week, we expose the most ridiculous takes on the internet as we tear apart the most confident idiots spreading hate online. Though, not everything has to be destroyed; we’ll also be sharing the positive side of the internet and the stories that make us proud to be a part of the LGBTQ+ community! The stories of hope, joy, and freedom that come with embracing inclusivity and openness.

Bernie Sanders Saves the Internet

Bernie Sanders became a meme (once again) and used the popularity to his advantage. People love memes so much that they get them tattooed.

Pronouns are EVIL

A popular Youtuber is offended by people putting pronouns in their bios. Coming out as a prank is really funny to some people, but it always ends badly.

Real Men Don't Wear Masks

Elon Musk seems to struggle with understanding pronouns. A man who claims that if you wear a mask, you are low on testosterone. Tom Cruise saves the day on set, or does he? If you could say anything to your 15 year old self in 60 seconds, what would it be?
