GayTalk 2.0 – Episode 215 – A Gay Man’s Journey: From West Africa to the U.S.A

On today’s episode, the cast dives into an uncomfortable but necessary conversation regarding race, white privilege and gentrification. This conversation carries us all the way through break.


After the break, we are joined by Edafe Okporo, a West African gay man who is living in the United States of America as refugee. His journey is one of strength, perseverance and struggle which leaves the cast emotionally shaken as he describes moments of his journey.

The Future Method

It’s the solution for clean, confident play for everyone.

Each time you clean out with water or enemas, delicate tissues are harmed and cells are damaged, increasing chances of injury and STDs. The first-of-its-kind, doctor-developed formula that gently cleanses before you play without hurting your bum.
