Episode 24
Tuesday, 10 November, 2026
Comedian Jeremy Crittenden is back in the basement as guest co-host. Brian and Jeremy celebrate the Blue Tsunami that took place the night before recording the episode. Brian recounts his night at the live table read of Difficult People: The Movie. The two catch up on topics that came up during their earlier conversations, now that Brian has seen (and loved) the Jordan Firstman film, Club Kid, and tasted Torch’d Vanilla Fireball. Brian finishes reading The Disappearers by Marlon James and gives his full review. The Hookup of the Week starts with a humdrum day at work and ends with a meeting between a sub locked in chastity and a Daddy with a Prince Albert who enjoy some satisfying Daddy/Son play together. Brian and Jeremy are then joined by Jeremiah Johnson, Executive Director of Prep4All and co-founder of the Save HIV Funding campaign. Jeremiah reacts to being named to this year’s Out100 list, he clarifies that HIV/AIDS is not ‘done’ as many choose to believe it is, and he shares his honest reaction to the midterm election results. He delves into his past to talk about receiving his HIV diagnosis, being illegally let go from the Peace Corps because of it, and how partnering with the ACLU to fight the decision is what set him on the path to make advocacy his career. He shares stories about coming out as HIV positive to his family, about how a nudist community gave way to his “classic interracial serodiscordant homosexual relationship” with his husband Tym and how both access to PrEP and the acceptance that undetectable equals untransmittable meant that HIV didn’t have to be a central issue for them. Jeremiah explains the work of his organization Prep4All and his concerns about the quality of patient care given by the for-profit PrEP providers, and the damage those companies could do by participating in policy making without a full understanding of the complexities of American healthcare or the history of the HIV/AIDS movement. He shares his wonder at feeling out of touch with the younger generation and experiencing the beginnings of age-related health issues in his mid 40s, and he helps Brian and Jeremy respond to a Go Ask Your Dad question from a listener who wants to stop seeing a repeat hookup without hurting his feelings.
