Queer The Table

This is a broadcast version of last month's Queer the Table Live event, in partnership with the Hetrick Martin House. Nico was joined by Vanessa Parish, Christopher Murray, Andre Springer and John DeBary to talk about the ways in which queer folks, and particularly QTPOC are nourishing their communities through this time of crisis.

In March, HRN began producing all of our 35 weekly shows from our homes all around the country. It was hard work stepping away from our little recording studio, but we know that you rely on HRN to share resources and important stories from the world of food each week. It’s been a tough year for all of us, but right now HRN is asking for your help. Every dollar that listeners give to HRN provides essential support to keep our mics on. We've got some fresh new thank you gifts available, like our limited edition bandanas.

This episode was originally produced for Season 2 of Bodies, hosted by Allison Behringer. Trans folks are 8x more likely than cis folks to be diagnosed with an eating disorder. Nico shares their own experience with trying to untangle their gender dysphoria from their feelings and behaviours around food.

As big (an often fraught) holidays approach, we're feeling grateful for spaces where we can gather around a table with queer chosen family. On today's episode, we travel through space and time to two such spaces: the storied "lesbian potluck," and its more modern, Brooklynite rendition: Queer Soup Night.
