The Future is Now. Are You Embarrassed Yet?

from Ranting Out Loud: An LGBTQ+ perspective on life, love, politics and chaos · host Lee Swift, Chadrick Douglas, Producer Mike

Slipping on black ice and straight into 2026, the crew tears into fake AI "experts," Orange-flavored tech grifts, and a political class that somehow keeps getting louder while learning less. There's plenty of ranting about ICE cosplay turning dangerous, confidence masquerading as competence, and why the machines aren't scary. The people using them are. Toss in Drag Race therapy, trashy reality TV castles, and a little queer joy for balance, and you've got an episode that proves the future is here … and we feel no shame?
