Bear Soup #56
Bear Soup, episode #56, streams online tonight, Monday, October 12th, at 10:00pm Eastern & Pacific on BearRadio.net. Repeats Wednesday, same times. Bubbling up in the Bear Soup tub this week:
- Interview with Joe Maulucci, silver-tongued proprietor of BearRadio, on the Bear Radio network’s 6th anniversary
- Another reading from the book, Faeries, Bears, and Leathermen: Men in Community Queering the Masculine, by Peter Hennen
- An article about endangered (4-legged) Polar bears — and a fundraising idea for Bearclubs everywhere to start directing some of their charitable work to environmental causes and to support organizations like WWF and Natural Resources Defence Council
- Shoutouts, announcements, and the usual bear puns and furry audio folderol.
There’s room in the tub for everybear, everycub, whatever, whomever . . . so just drop trou and drop in for a brand new BEAR SOUP!
Bear Soup is sponsored by our buds at Bear Bones Books.
