J. Harvey Reads Wicked Gay's Fan Mail
2026/02/02
Send J. Harvey a text! (Try to be nice, but I get it, everyone's a little cranky sometimes...) Hello! So, Buzzsprout has this Fan Mail feature that I've been totally ignoring. But some of you have actually used it! So I thought it would be cute to respond to some of your fan mail. Thank you for writing in, and thank you for listening. You guys are the literal best. Note I used the word "literal" to signify I really, really mean it. I'm being sincere here, which is sometimes difficult for me because I know that people hate sincerity, at least they hate public displays of it. See what I do for you?

Wicked Gay Pop Whatever #7: Interview with the Vampire
2026/01/26
Send J. Harvey a text! (Try to be nice, but I get it, everyone's a little cranky sometimes...) I have a new favorite TV show - AMC’s Interview with the Vampire. Which is interesting, cuz' one of my other favorite tv shows is Buffy the Vampire Slayer. And my other favorite is Hannibal. I might be morbid, or I might just have EXCELLENT TASTE IN TELEVISION. Fun game - see if you can guess which portion of this episode I wrote using AI because I had a brief moment where I thought about giving up podcasting so I turned to machine intelligence in desperation to just finish this one. (I'm not quitting but lady, there are times when throwing that towel in looks peaceful...) Honestly, if you like a ornate, lush, hypsersharp. queer tragi-drama-comedy with fangs, this show is for you.  Buzzsprout - Let's get your podcast launched!Start for FREE Buzzsprout - Let's get your podcast launched!Start for FREE Support the show Subscribe to Wicked Gay on Patreon (Patreon.com/wickedgay ) for extra episodes and bonus content!

Redemption Arc: Ed "Skull" Murphy (Ep. 60)
2025/12/09
Send J. Harvey a text! (Try to be nice, but I get it, everyone's a little cranky sometimes...) Ed "Skull" Murphy went from treacherous gay blackmailer to community activist and icon. How? Well, just listen, it's why you came here, what - do I gotta do everything for ya?

Welcome to Corpsewood Manor (Ep. 59)
2025/10/31
Send J. Harvey a text! (Try to be nice, but I get it, everyone's a little cranky sometimes...) Deep in the Georgia woods, a devil-worshipping (don't be judgey, now) gay couple built a kinky Satanic sex palace and lived off the land. They made their own wine, threw fabulous dinner parties and certain guests experienced the infamous pink room over the chicken coop.  Then they made the mistake of befriending a troubled young man who decided they had money to steal. The name of their home? Corpsewood Manor. Tragically fitting.  Buzzsprout - Let's get your podcast launched!Start for FREE Buzzsprout - Let's get your podcast launched!Start for FREE Support the show Subscribe to Wicked Gay on Patreon (Patreon.com/wickedgay ) for extra episodes and bonus content!

Wicked Gay Pop Whatever #6: Alien Earth
2025/10/04
Send J. Harvey a text! (Try to be nice, but I get it, everyone's a little cranky sometimes...) Are you an Alien fan? Do you love watching Sigourney Weaver waste oddly sexual space lizards with no eyes and too many mouths. If so, this episode is for you! I blow myself out of the airlock right into a review of the Alien series, with a deep dive into the newest chapter, Alien Earth. Which is incredible and you should go watch it now. After you listen to this episode. Warning: spoilers for everything Alien abound in this ep. Well, not for the Predator ones. Those are safe.  Buzzsprout - Let's get your podcast launched!Start for FREE Buzzsprout - Let's get your podcast launched!Start for FREE Support the show Subscribe to Wicked Gay on Patreon (Patreon.com/wickedgay ) for extra episodes and bonus content!

Closet Crisis: Ed Koch (Ep.58)
2025/08/29
Send J. Harvey a text! (Try to be nice, but I get it, everyone's a little cranky sometimes...) Ed Koch was the semi-beloved mayor of New York City from 1977 to 1989. I say semi-beloved because NYC's gay community didn't appreciate how he, as a closeted gay man, was doing the bare minimum when it came to the AIDS pandemic. P.S. You can check out Wicked Gay's very first VIDEO episode on Patreon (link below)!  Have I said the music for Wicked Gay is by Pixaby, and the theme song is by Gino and the Goons?

A Cautionary Tale About Methamphetamine: Joseph Banis, Jeffrey Mundt, and Jamie Carroll (Ep. 57)
2025/08/01
Send J. Harvey a text! (Try to be nice, but I get it, everyone's a little cranky sometimes...) Don't do meth. Don't do meth. You know meth? Don't do it.I don't care if Mackenzie the coolest girl in school who says you can be in one of her incredibly popular Tik-Toks, maybe even one of the makeup tutorial ones, asks you to do it, don't do meth. I don't care if your trainer says it's "actually a great way to stay in shape, bro, but sssshhh!" Nope to meth.  Meth is a non-doable. Meth is a deal-breaker. You think those people on meth PSA posters wanted to be there, displayed at the worst time in their life? No, they're thinking - I really shouldn't have done all that meth. This is the story about a brutal murder that most definitely had a lot to do with methamphetamine.

2025/06/15
Send J. Harvey a text! (Try to be nice, but I get it, everyone's a little cranky sometimes...) Happy Pride. If you don't know about Harvey Milk, now you will. Oh, and your host gets kinda angry, a little sappy and pathetic but pretty real. Stick around for when he defends the trans community by denigrating Harry Potter. I love June.  Buzzsprout - Let's get your podcast launched!Start for FREE Buzzsprout - Let's get your podcast launched!Start for FREE Support the show Subscribe to Wicked Gay on Patreon (Patreon.com/wickedgay ) for extra episodes and bonus content!

2025/04/14

Ambiguous, Undecipherable, Suspended : The Life and Murder of Pier Paolo Pasolini (Ep.54)
2025/03/14
Send J. Harvey a text! (Try to be nice, but I get it, everyone's a little cranky sometimes...) Pier Paolo Pasolini was a poet, novelist, filmmaker, and one of Italy's most celebrated (and most controversial) figures. He was murdered by a teenage hustler in 1975. Or was he? Well, the murder part happened, but was it committed by the Freemasons? The Catholic Church? The Mafia? The Italian government? Pasolini had a lot of anti-fans. Let's find out. Music by Pixaby.

Please Thank Me For Not Calling This Episode Something Corny Like "Deadly Communion": Father Francis Craven and David Leitner (Ep.53)
2025/02/08
Send J. Harvey a text! (Try to be nice, but I get it, everyone's a little cranky sometimes...) Father Frank was loved by his congregation, and known for his generosity and supportive nature. But he had his secrets.  One of them, his increasingly uneasy relationship with an odd, makeshift "family" in his congregation, might have gotten him killed. Music by Pixaby.

Midwestern Maniac: Larry Eyler (Ep.52)
2024/12/14
Send J. Harvey a text! (Try to be nice, but I get it, everyone's a little cranky sometimes...) Larry Eyler was a little-remembered serial killer who took the lives of many young men in Illinois and Indiana in the early 1980s. Think John Wayne Gacy but with less infamy.

Excuse the Blood: Norwegian Black Metal (Ep.51)
2024/11/01
Send J. Harvey a text! (Try to be nice, but I get it, everyone's a little cranky sometimes...) AAAAARRRRSSHRIRIEKKFK - try to yell that loudly over a chainsaw in use and microphone feedback. That's basically what black metal sounds like. It was big in Norway in the 90s. What was also big then was black metal musicians and their fans burning down churches and murdering people.

Wicked Gay Pop Whatever #4: Longlegs
2024/10/12
Send J. Harvey a text! (Try to be nice, but I get it, everyone's a little cranky sometimes...) There's the almost birthday girl. SHRIEK. Nicolas Cage is doing a lot in this movie, and you'll love it. Hail Satan, lots of coded devil speak, creepy-ass dolls, family annihilation, and the worst plastic surgery since Madge went overboard on the fillers.

Plus J. is clever and quite funny — which is SO much more than you can say for 99% of the people making podcasts these days. Recommend!
