Summary

This week, we’re mixing it up a little bit. We talk to Jordan Whelan about what it’s like to be a gay man. Here at Sickboy HQ, we don’t only like to talk about what it’s like to be sick, we love to dispel stigma, and this week’s episode dives head first into growing up, coming out and living it up as a young gay man. Jordan also has colitis, which certainly makes for a few complications in the sex department. Taylor is astounded at how much he doesn’t know about being gay, Brian gets reigned in by Jeremie, and Jer is super interested to know about being a “power bottom”. Love you all!
