  • Ain't No Hood Like Motherhood
    May 7 2024

    It's LGBT FC's first-ever Mother's Day episode! Joining Daisy and Luke are two amazing mothers in LA's supporters culture community, Emily Grijalva (@xelaquetzal on Twitter) and Tiff Sanchez, who are also both members of Poderosas supporters group (@poderosas_acfc on Instagram and Twitter).

    First we recap an up-and-down run of form for both LAFC and Angel City FC. Then at 10' in, the Day in Gay brings some updates from state legislatures and courthouses for LGBTQ+ rights, efforts by some to ensure access in NCAA sports for transgender athletes, a possible coming out for men's footballers later this month, and a big retirement announcement in the international women's game.

    Then it's time to hear from our mothers, beginning at 16' with Emily Grijalva, who shares about her sons and supporting their exploration and growth. Then, at 39'30" we are joined by Tiff Sanchez, with a family of her own, talking about bringing her own approach and providing a safe space for her kids.

    This is episode is our gift to the mothers in our LGBT FC family. Have a gay day!

  • Be an Ally
    Apr 17 2024

    Daisy and Luke are celebrating an LAFC derby win and here to remind y'all to be an ally. So this episode features two LAFC podcast hosts - JR Lebert (@lafc_thescarf on Insta and Twitter) and Travis Helwig (@travishelwig on Insta and Twitter) - who themselves are straight allies to the LGBTQ+ community.

    There's lots to recap at the start of the show, including cool news from overseas and announcing the winner of LGBT FC's first-ever Sexiest Men's Footballer March Madness Tourney.

    At 15' the Day in Gay brings some ups and downs - some anti-LGBTQ+ bills dying and others rising from the dead - followed by a sweet story from the south of Spain, an unexpected story out of the women's NCAA tourney, and a big surprise from professional women's basketball.

    Then it's time to hear from our allies. First, at 21'30", JR Lebert, host of Defenders of the Banc (@defendthebanc on Insta and Twitter), shares about being a teacher and organizer of youth soccer leagues. And then at 48'30" Travis Helwig, host of Happy Foot Sad Foot (@happyfootsadfoot on Insta and @hafosafo on Twitter), talks about creating community and turns the tables on our hosts.

    Remember: Be an ally. And have a gay day!

  • A Rough Start to the Season
    Apr 3 2024

    Daisy and Luke are back! And to kick things off they recap what has been a difficult beginning to the regular season for both LAFC and ACFC. Then they share about LGBT FC's first-ever Sexiest Men's Footballer March Madness Tourney.

    At 14'30", the Day in Gay covers a lot of territory, including Transgender Day of Visibility, LGBTQ+ students especially vulnerable in states passing laws going after them, a story out of the USWNT, striking numbers of Gen Z'ers who identify as LGBTQ+, an LAFC story to watch, and exciting news involving an out player in the men's game.

    Stick around to the end for words of wisdom from Daisy, with the mic drop. And have a gay day!
