The Screw

Two years ago, Felica Rose and ALove interviewed HIV health advocates Adam Bueller and Murray Benner. Last June, Adam died of leukemia. The Screw wanted to take this opprtunity to remind you of the important work Adam did and and the work advocates are still doing to navigate and eliminate the stigmas and barriers HIV+ face.

The Screw invited two very important guests this week to settle some misconceptions inside and outside the ring around HIV. We of course gave it our good ol’ irreverent twists in between two incredible individual’s stories of strength, information and a whole lot of compassion. Professional indy wrestler, Adam Bueller has a conversation with us about being undetectable in wrestling and the wide spectrum of responses and challenges he’s experienced. Murray Penner joins the conversation, he is the Executive Director, North America for Prevention Access Campaign which help spread the good word of U=U/ Undetectable=Untransmittable and also shares his story of being undetectable 33 years after seroconversion. We learned so much this week and really respect and value the honesty and information these humans put forth on this podcast, please give a listen. Information helps us find power over fear-- come be less afraid.

As we close out 2024, we’re bringing you a heartfelt, slightly chaotic, and unmistakably queer sendoff to the year. Alove shares his experience navigating post-hernia surgery recovery, reflecting on the challenges that come with being a queer person in a healthcare system that doesn’t always know how to handle us with care. Meanwhile, Felicia’s “boo-boo on her ho-ho” brings some unintentional holiday hilarity to the mix—because what’s a Screw episode without a little humor?

We also dive into the topic of New Year’s resolutions, questioning the tradition and exploring what fresh starts and intentions mean in a queer, sex-positive context. Are resolutions worth it? Maybe. Maybe not. But we’re here to find our own way forward.

To all our listeners, thank you for sticking with us through another year of messy, magical, and unapologetically Screw vibes. Happy New Year! We’ll see you in 2025, ready to bring the heat.

Warning- This episode may be haunted with internet demons that disrupted our queer agenda.

Felicia Rose and ALove chat about the holigay season and drill down on when it’s acceptable to give your sleeping partners head. Your hosts navigate the issues of consent that arise when people are interested in initiating sex with their sleeping partners, which is especially important because this is a relatively mainstream kink that falls under the umbrella of consesual non-concent- an area where participants need to have much more involved consent conversations than an average person has been prepared for.
