About this episode

Dodie joins the hosts to discuss her experiences writing queer anthems and exploring bisexuality.

This episode is musical, listener! WHGS is comin’ at you from ENGLAND with Dodie — an incredible singer, songwriter, and YouTuber with top-charting albums and a hit single, “She,” that took over Lesbian TikTok. We discuss writing queer anthems before knowing you’re queer, the odd ways you explore bisexuality before coming out, internalized homophobia, breakups, and being just like Zooey Deschanel — AKA, hot. Ashley needs sex for career accomplishments. Lizzy gets in quickies between childcare.
