Was Shakespeare Gay? Who knows, but his poetry sure as heck is. It's uber gay in the best of ways. Was Shakespeare Trans? That is a bit of a reach, but the best way to describe his writing is, as the best writing always is, polyamorous. Has there ever been a more well rounded expression of all of human experience? None that I know of, which is why I chose the Bard as my model. In this podcast, I talk about why I think that Dave Chapelle and J. K. Rowling are blowing it Boomer style. It's a pendulum. Leave the trans kids alone, please. There's more there. I also talk about marketing and why it is essential. People like to think that they don't need marketing, but it is virtually impossible for a business to exist without marketing, and certainly growth is caused by marketing. It's a basic concept, but so widely misunderstood. Then, I dig into the sonnets and they are gay and great!
