info_outlineIf this episode is appearing twice, it's because the Spotify feed was acting up. Apologies and hey... you get to hear Brian Sims, twice! - Yo Aunteas!
Yo Aunteas are joined once again by Brian Sims — activist, former Pennsylvania State Representative, and CEO of Agenda PAC.
Brian breaks down how Agenda PAC is using AI to identify and defeat the most dangerous bigots in America, why local elections matter more than ever, and how queer communities can reignite political hope amid burnout and misinformation. The group gets real about why the Democratic party refuses to "play dirty", and Brian delivers a sharp call to action for allies—especially white gay men—who have been conspicuously silent while our rights are under attack.
Of course, the Aunteas also serve the cultural tea, breaking down the drama behind Brandy walking off stage during the long-awaited Brandy & Monica tour. Finally, Brian returns for "Curiositea Part Two" , sharing his hobbies, his Drag Race Mount Rushmore , and the sweet story behind the last song he played .
(Dawon is out this week, but sends his love from London! )
So, get them cups readyyyy!!
