Episode 16: Married Divorced and Gay by 30

ediewyatt@gmail.com (Edie Wyatt) — Sat, 11 May 2019 16:25:36 +0000

(Tech note: This episode is recorded in Stereo, so you need both earbuds in!)

Well, it’s been over a year–quelle surprise–but we’re back! Listen in for an update on our lives, how we’re making our relationship work this time around, an exciting announcement about Edie’s memoir (finally!), and a lovely listener update. We also dig in to someone identifying as straight after identifying as queer–what are the implications? What does it mean? And finally, everyone’s favorite segment, Who Would You Do: Killing Eve edition!

Episode 15: Rebirth and (Lesbian Bed) Death

ediewyatt@gmail.com (Edie Wyatt) — Fri, 30 Mar 2018 04:46:07 +0000

THREE MONTHS after recording this episode (and almost TWO YEARS after the last episode was released, oops!), Edie is finally back, and with a special guest! Listen in for a major life update, plus an in depth discussion of “Lesbian Bed Death” (spoiler alert: not a real thing, don’t call it that!) and how to navigate differing sex drives in a relationship. IMPORTANT STUFF, LOVELIES so listen up!

And of course it wouldn’t be an episode of NLP if we didn’t descend into pop culture randomness and give some shout outs to 90 Day Fiance: Before the 90 Days, and our fave radio host, @michcoll (Michelle Collins)!

Episode 14: Just Edie

ediewyatt@gmail.com (Edie Wyatt) — Mon, 29 Aug 2016 04:17:58 +0000

What it says on the tin! It’s just Edie in this episode of the New Lesbian podcast, and she answers a listener question that has at some point been ALL of our question in the early stages of realizing that maybe we’re not-so-straight–how do I actually start dating women?? What do I say? What if I’m Bi? Is that ok? (Short answer: yes.) Then a mini-check in on Edie’s mental state, and a new segment, “Edie Reads” where she gets a little passionate about a book that you should really read. Like, now.

Episode 13: Queer Round Table

ediewyatt@gmail.com (Edie Wyatt) — Sat, 06 Aug 2016 19:37:55 +0000

OMG you guys! Episode 13 is finally here, only a year late! Settle in for an hour+ conversation between Edie, Elle, and 5 of their closest friends about all things queer. We cover dating apps, the disappearance of gay spaces in New York, the politics of Fire Island, freedom (or not) from gender roles and labels in the world of same-sex relationships, and tons more.

Thanks so much to our brilliant, thoughtful friends for being on the show: Eric, Jay, Mere, Sean, and Zara!

Episode 12-Much Gay. Very Questions.

ediewyatt@gmail.com (Edie Wyatt) — Fri, 18 Sep 2015 22:06:31 +0000

We answer more fantastic questions from you lovelies, like: How do you meet gays in a conservative town? How can you tell if someone you’re into is gay? How do you tell a husband/boyfriend that your sexuality has shifted?? Then, Edie can’t help herself and gushes again about how powerful it is for us to share our stories with each other. Sharing is caring! Then, it’s Peeves and Props and Who Would You Do, and somehow we spend 20 minutes talking about Youtubers. Sorry, not sorry! #Hangrid, anyone???

We do our very best to answer your questions, but we want to hear from YOU! Share how you’ve handled issues like the ones we discuss in this episode in the comments at newlesbianpodcast.wordpress.com OR on ask.fm or twitter (links below). Tell us your experiences and we’ll share them on the show–let’s share what we’ve learned, and how we’ve coped. We can all help each other to not feel confused or alone. xx

ediewyatt@gmail.com (Edie Wyatt) — Thu, 18 Jun 2015 04:14:42 +0000

Finally! It’s Season 2 of the New Lesbian podcast and in this episode it’s a queer news roundup: the tragic continuing trend of teen Trans* suicides, the unveiling of Caitlyn Jenner, the WNBA romance debacle, and the rise of the gay Youtuber. We round things out with everyone’s favorite/most hated segment, Who Would You Do: Harry Potter addition, where Edie explains why Virgos make the best lovers. PLUS, we’ve got a fancy new mic, and don’t quite know how to use it! (Please excuse the weird noises.) Happy Summer, lovelies!

Episode 8: Happy Thanksgaying!

ediewyatt@gmail.com (Edie Wyatt) — Thu, 27 Nov 2014 03:54:31 +0000

It’s Thanksgaying at the New Lesbian podcast and Elle is a little drunk! In this episode we talk about how we handled yet another family gathering in the pseudo-south, the continued annoyance of having to endlessly come out, and how much of our hiding our relationship might be coming from…ourselves? Then it’s Props and Peeves, where we rant a little too much about Amtrak trains. We recorded this episode late at night, so bear with us, lovelies! Happy Thanksgiving!
