Episode 170: The White Cleetus . Super Gay Tea Dance . September 2023

What is a Cleetus? It's a mascot to a diverse and group from New York, Boston, and beyond who at least once a year escape to a remote location and camp or glamp together and throw fabulous theme parties. A Cleetus is a set of googly eyes you can wear around your fingers. It's a thing that brings ridiculousness, joy, community, love, and bonding for those who wear it, share it, and blare it! The White Cleetus was our theme party where everyone dressed in "high-end gay" resort wear in tribute to the fabuluos HBO series and drank delicious herbal teas blended by our reisdent herbalist. These gays, they're trying to murder me! . . . with kindness, joy, exuberance, and free expression. Cover art by Jenny Briskman.
