Episode 46 - Halifax Glove Guy + Queer Stories of Old West

August 02, 2023

Bec (they/them) tells the tale of local legend, the Halifax glove guy. Seemingly, just a good Samaritan who offers rides to young men after a night out, with a passion for his glove business. In exchange for a free ride, all they have to do is listen to his sales pitch and try on some gloves. Most people left his car feeling the encounter hadn't been as harmless as it was presented, others had experiences that had longer lasting effects on their lives.

Adam (he/him) then tells us about some queer figures from the old west you've probably never heard of before. A refreshing perspective of American history that isn't exclusively filled with white men; Adam tells us about a handful of people that remind us that queer people have always existed, including the wild west.
