BFF: Black, Fat, Femme

What is the Use of One Cheek? (featuring Brian Michael Smith)

Tue, 16 Jun 2026 07:20:20 +0000

We got one of People Magazine's "Sexiest Men Alive" - Brian Michael Smith - on Black Fat Femme this week, and we get into discussions about authentic trans narratives, wanting more mediocrity (?!?), and the power of tranformative storytelling.

From The L Word: Generation Q and 9-1-1: Lone Star, to his advocacy in film and television, Brian breaks down his journey from sports star to TV star while your favorite cohosts share their hot takes about parasocial relationships, being paid more for less, and some of the "hidden figures" in trans history.

Entendre? Make It Triple. (Featuring Ericka Hart)

Tue, 09 Jun 2026 07:00:00 +0000

This week on Black Fat Femme, we sit down with the brilliant Ericka Hart to talk about their powerful new book Nasty Work—a deep dive into sex, power, and the labor of intimacy. We get into what it means to claim pleasure unapologetically, especially at the intersections of Blackness, queerness, and fatness.

We also unpack the politics of credibility in the Black community—who gets taken seriously and why—sparked by conversations around figures like Cheyenne Bryant, and how degrees shape (and distort) trust. And yes, we go there: a candid, hilarious, and pointed discussion on why straight people should absolutely be paying more during Pride

A Momma Like Lisa Landry

Tue, 05 May 2026 07:00:00 +0000

This week, we’re honoring the ones who raised us and loved us without restraint—while telling the truth about how complicated that love can be. From navigating queerness and identity to unpacking harm, growth, and grace, we reflect on what it takes to build real, evolving relationships with the women who raised us. We share stories of support, moments of tension, and the quiet work of understanding—while asking: what does it mean to celebrate a mother who is still learning how to love you fully? It’s tender, honest, and maybe something you’ll want to bring to therapy next week.

Now That's What I Call Discourse! (Featuring Danielle Young)

Tue, 28 Apr 2026 07:00:00 +0000

On this weeks episode, we are joined by Danielle Young as we dive into the messy magic of 2000s media and how it shaped a generation’s relationship to storytelling, visibility, and critique. We talk “2000s starter pack,” revisit TV, music, tabloids, Myspace, and early YouTube while unpacking what that era taught them about being seen online as Black storytellers. We also reflect on how 2000s media still lives in our work today, what we refuses to replicate, and the “big Beyoncé note” she’d send to an industry that remains nostalgic for harmful narratives.

Tue, 14 Apr 2026 07:00:00 +0000

This week Jon and Joho sit down with writer and comedian Guy Branum for a powerful and hilarious conversation about the role of comedy as survival for queer folks. From turning trauma into punchlines to reclaiming joy in spaces not built for us, this episode dives deep into how humor becomes both a defense mechanism and a transformative tool. Guy opens up about his journey toward self-acceptance, using wit to challenge cis-normativity and anti-queer culture, and writing scenes that bring fat and queer representation to the forefront and a reminder that sometimes surviving means being funny — even when it hurts.

It's Giving Black Cinema (Featuring Tre'vell Anderson & Ray Love Jr.)

This week on B.F.F.: Black Fat Femme Podcast, Joho and Jon are joined by Tre'vell Anderson & Ray Love Jr. from the Seated Podcast for a deep dive into the Black moviegoing experience. Coming off the chaos of award season, the trio gets real about how Black and queer audiences find joy, connection, and meaning in cinema — even as Hollywood’s marketing still caters to whiteness and heteronormativity. From theater call-and-response moments to the rise of streaming culture, they explore what it would look like if Black, queer, and trans perspectives were treated as the default rather than the exception.

This week we get into a (closing Pride) conversation about growth, why we need to change our outlooks on activism and why this Pride season is giving Great Value over Up & Up overall. IYKYK.

IT'S A PRIDE CELEBRATION WITH APPLE PODCAST!

OUR SHOW IS BEING SPOTLIGHTED BY APPLE! HOORAY! With that, we have put together the perfect (queer) Apple Music playlist for you here.

“Rarely do you hear people talking about what makes them happy to be Black, fat, and queer,” says Jon Paul, co-host and creator of BFF: Black, Fat, Femme, Apple Podcasts' Spotlight pick for June 2023. “Our show does that.” Paul is joined on the mic by co-host and friend Jordan Daniels. Both are experienced storytellers, creatives, and social justice educators. They launched the podcast one year ago and since then, BFF has become a beacon of light for folks who feel their voices don’t matter. “I want them to laugh fully, feel part of our conversations, and nourished,” says Daniels. BFF tackles heavy topics but Paul says, “90% of the time we’re cracking jokes and celebrating our intersections.” “I love making this show because we get to express all pieces of ourselves, share it with the world, and create a space for our BFFs to exist alongside us,” says Daniels. “This show is for them as much as it is for us. I hope listeners take away a whole list of fascinating and incredible people that they can follow, connect with, and learn from!” says Daniels.
