CC062: Tom & Adam Ponder Why Queer People Love SURVIVOR!
Your Other Brothers
03/10/23 • 45 min
Adam returns to discuss another of his (and Tom's) greatest loves: Survivor! We share our origin stories with this beloved reality show that's been airing since 2000. We spend the bulk of the episode pondering why Survivor has attracted a strong LGBTQ following over the years. Why do queer people love the show, and why do queer contestants generally do well on the show? Is survival in the game connected to survival outside the game? To close the episode, Tom and Adam share their favorite players from the first couple episodes of the currently airing season, Survivor 44! We also wonder whether our beloved show will ever feature a Side B queer contestant?
COMMENT ON THIS EPISODE➡️ Do you also love Survivor? Tell us what first got you into the show or why you love it so much. Should we start a Survivor spinoff podcast?! And if you're watching the current season, tell us who your favorites are!

YC092: Second Adolescence
Your Other Brothers
02/12/22 • 92 min
Many gay/SSA folks experience a delayed or "second adolescence" in adulthood after keeping our sexuality secret in our first adolescence when we unconsciously adapted to the heteronormative culture around us. When we finally do find safe masculine circles, whether within YOB or elsewhere, conversational topics like sex or masturbation, or shared male experiences like nudity and cuddling hold great appeal -- if not laced with some of that adolescent immaturity or a tinge (or bucketload) of obsession.
But second adolescence is more than just talking too much about penises or underwear. What about dealing with the heartache of other male friends, particularly other "Side B" ones, who have hurt us? What about our lack of Side B peers or role models growing up? How has what we lacked in our first adolescence affected our lives and growth today?
Join Tom, Ben, and Will for a dispersed yet also focused look at this phenomena of "second adolescence," finally putting a name to this nebulous thing that we've all noticed in our community and in ourselves for years!
LINKS FROM THIS EPISODE➡️ Will's blog, "'Handsome Devil,' a Side B Sleeper Hit?"
➡️ Ben's blog, "Naked and Unashamed in the Locker Room"
COMMENT ON THIS EPISODE➡️ Can you relate with this concept of "second adolescence" in adulthood? How would you describe your original adolescence, and how has what you experienced (or did not) affected your growth today?

YC052: Chosen Family
Your Other Brothers
10/11/19 • 107 min
For better or worse, we all start with families of origin. But what of this concept of families of choice? A chosen family that goes beyond blood and DNA?
Join Tom, Ryan, and Jacob for a discussion on chosen family: what it means for the LGBTQ+ community, what it means for believers in Christ, and what it means for this overlap of communities like YOB, Revoice, and beyond.
Beyond our awesome conversation on chosen family, it's a special episode for other reasons: our first episode back in the "Jewel of the Blue Ridge" in over a year! We talk about responding to mystery texts and sleepwalking episodes in Ryan's and Jacob's "shameless shares," and Tom and Ryan talk about their recent adventure to Montana together.

YC056: Pornography
Your Other Brothers
01/25/20 • 85 min
Do we talk about pornography too much as the Church or not nearly enough? Do we "talk about talking about" pornography or do we actually talk about it?
Pornography is more accessible than ever before and, increasingly, more aggressive. It's a struggle and an addiction that has reached and claimed all people: gay, straight, men, and women. Join Tom, Ryan, and Jacob as we take a deep dive into the science and story of pornography. It's one of our classic episodes that we're reopening in a new way.
Beyond our discussion on porn, hear about Ryan and Jacob's adventures in the "City of Forts" as well as the notion of our one day recording a podcast in . . . Florida . . . dun dun dun.
We're back to producing two podcast episodes per month, and we hope you enjoy our latest episode below!

YC043: Body Image
Your Other Brothers
11/10/18 • 97 min
How do men experience body image compared to women? On a physical level and an emotional level, what does it mean to possess a healthy male body image? And how do our sexualities tie into our body image?
Join Tom, Ryan, and first-timer Jacob for a discussion on male body image. We talk insecurities about body shapes, friendship desirability, penis size, balding, and our innate sense of masculinity.
We also premiere a new intro segment, "The Brother Beat"! Or something. Where you can listen to us talk about bathrooms for 20 minutes.

YC104: Vulnerability
Your Other Brothers
03/18/23 • 82 min
Vulnerability is uncomfortable, even scary, so why do we value it so highly in our community? Sharing our story, including our sexuality, may have once felt like the most daunting or impossible task. And yet what would have been the cost to our lives had we not been vulnerable? What if we had stayed silent, closeted, cut off from such a significant aspect of ourselves with ourselves, God, and other people? Indeed, what if vulnerability that feels like weakness is actually strength – especially when practiced in a community? Join Tom, Ben, and Aaron for quite the “bread and butter” discussion on YOB’s fourth value!

CC071: Erin Resonates with Queer Culture and Pansexuality
Your Other Brothers
09/09/23 • 42 min
Erin returns to help us SPAN THE SPECTRUM of our community from a woman's perspective! She updates us on her developments with Your Other Sisters, including a pivotal experience at Revoice this summer where she met some prospective YOS members as well as fellow YOB members for the first time. Sexuality aside, Erin discusses a general resonance with queer culture and then explains how her sexuality most aligns with pansexuality: an attraction for people regardless of gender. She also discloses being somewhere on the asexual (ace) spectrum. Erin shares some of her journey of self-discovery with sexuality, growing up in purity culture as a woman, living in Cambodia doing missions work, eventually dating men, and getting back to America on the other side of a pandemic. It's our penultimate episode of this summer sexuality series as we soon wrap things up with our finale!

YC074: Belonging w/ Gregory Coles
Your Other Brothers
02/26/21 • 80 min
Gregory Coles joins us for a conversation on belonging as we discuss his new book, No Longer Strangers: Finding Belonging in a World of Alienation. We learn some of Greg’s story, growing up as a missionary’s kid in Indonesia, and his winding journey of geographical and cultural belonging in the United States.
We also talk to Greg about the aftermath of coming out in his first book, Single, Gay, Christian, including the beauty and challenges that decision has brought him. We dive into the Jesus-inspired concept of bringing belonging to others, and how sexual minorities may find belonging in the Church.
Join Tom, Ryan, Jacob, and Greg for this "sweet" discussion, and come belong with us!
