S2E10: Freddie Mercury, HIV/AIDS, and the Straightwashing of Queer Icons

1h 17m · Chronic Sex Podcast · 17 May 13:43

The trailer for the new Freddie Mercury biopic came out and I'm pissed - there's no mention of his HIV/AIDS or his queerness. Let's talk more about Freddie's REAL life and how it weaves into the HIV/AIDS crisis.
