Hear Me Out: Corporate Pride is Tacky, Pointless and Counterproductive
Jun 06, 2023•45 min•Transcript available on Metacast Episode description
On today’s episode of Hear Me Out… these gays are trying to murder my neutral palate.
Pride Month festivities come at a time this year when LGBT+ rights are under attack across the country. Brands like Target and Bud Light are facing backlash for lifting up queer voices — but is this all a symptom of pride having gone a little too mainstream?
Comedian, writer and podcast host H. Alan Scott joins us to discuss his vision for a pride to be proud of… and, at length, the trouble with rainbows.
