A rainbow of secrets. A coded language. And a hidden world built for survival.
Long before Grindr, Scruff, Sniffies, or social media, queer men relied on an intricate system of colored bandanas to communicate desires, identities, and interests in a world where being yourself could be dangerous. In this Pride Month episode, Jordi and Brad dive into the fascinating history of the Hanky Code, exploring its disputed origins, ties to leather culture, and how this colorful piece of queer history became one of the community’s most iconic symbols. Then, things take a hilarious turn as Brad’s knowledge is put to the test in a game that proves just how complex and surprisingly specific the code really was. This LGBTQ+ true crime podcast may be taking a break from murder this week, but it’s still a journey through queer history with plenty of laughs and unexpected discoveries along the way.
Hosted by Jordi and Brad, Beers With Queers brings chilling crimes, queer stories, and twisted justice to light, all with a cold one in hand.
Press play, grab a drink, and join us as we uncover the colorful secrets hidden throughout LGBTQ+ history.
