Dyketopia

By Dyketopia

A bite of gay delight for your ears! Based on the sell-out live comedy show, DYKETOPIA, this queer pod is hosted by standup comedians and friends Lee Robinson and Kate McLachlan.

We’re bringing our silly gay jokes and games and gossip straight to your ears. Each week we’ll cover new topics, from talking about our GayDHD hyperfocuses, to crowning a Dyke of the Week, to giving unsolicited (and unqualified!) relationship advice.

We’ll be dropping a new episode every Friday morning, so strap on your Birkenstocks and come hang.
