Lesbians are Miracles

MIDDLE SCHOOL

MIDDLE SCHOOL. It was awkward, it was sensitive, it was marked by growing pains, school dances, cafeteria politics, and cliques. It's a difficult time for anyone, but perhaps most especially for a pubescent, suburban queer. Wince visibly with us as we relive our harrowing, gawky, and extremely uncool junior high experiences, one inelegant memory at a time. 

REDYKLING

Ever taken different Tinder dates to the same old neighborhood gay bar? Have you used a trusty pick-up line on lots of different ladies, or maybe gifted the same book of poetry to your past three exes? If so, you may be guilty of REDYKLING! Dial up those earbuds and cringe in a well-natured way with us as we re-hash, dissect, process, and examine all of the ways in which we repeat—and sometimes break—our painfully gay patterns, habits, routines, and tendencies.  

HAPPIEST SEASON

Whether you loved or screamed at the TV every minute of it, we think we can all agree that HAPPIEST SEASON is a piece of queer cinema we'll be hate-or-joy-watching for holidays to come. In this episode, join us as we dissect in excruciating detail the tropes, nuances, successes and epic failures of Clea Duvall's seasonally sapphic rom com that has everyone talking. 

QUEERANTINE

It’s been a minute, but guess what? WE’RE BACK and we’re gayer than ever! In this episode, we’re dishing the dirt on QUEERANTINE, aka, how we’ve been spending the last seven months. Commiserate along with us as we talk about self-care in a global pandemic, ultra u-hauling, what we’ve gained, what we’ve left behind, and all of the queer (and not queer) content we’ve shamelessly consumed. (Sarah Paulson, anyone?!) Put on your favorite sweatpants, get yourself a heaping plate of cheese, pour yourself something nice, and come kick it with your girls. We’ve missed you.

HOMETOWN HOMO

In this very special episode, we're talking to the bold and beautiful Lory Lyon (you could say we're biased, but the facts are the facts) about her experience growing up as a lesbian in small town East Texas. Whether you've wondered about the unique challenges those born south of the Mason Dixon face in their coming-of-age; grew up as a southern queer yourself; or are still grappling with some version of home-town homophobia (and to all y'all, we tip our hats), dust off your spurs and saddle up. This is one you won't wanna miss. 

DYKONS

Dyke + Icon: They're the queer women you appreciate, look up to, fawn over, love, stan, venerate, idolize. They're the celesbians who risk their career for their truth, your favorite childhood musician or leading lady, your butch co-worker, your teacher, your best friend, your second cousin, the softball coach who saved your life. Dykons come in endless shapes and forms, and in this episode, we're talking about the ones who have had the biggest impact on us, and all of you—this one's for the womxn who mentored, shaped, and formed us; the ones who gave us permission; those who were themselves before we were able; the bold, badass queers who came out and stood out; who made us feel less alone; who paved—and pave—the way. 

BAD LESBIAN

Is your wardrobe suspiciously absent of even one piece of flannel? Are you ignorant of the lyrics to Closer to Fine? Do you secretly kind of hate Tegan and Sara? Are you decidedly not at all a cat person? Do you ONLY know your rising sign? There are a million different ways to be a bad lesbian, and in this episode, we’re flinging open our closet doors and inviting you to catch our gay skeletons slippin’. In the mood for even more processing? DM us on Instragam at @lesbiansaremiracles and let us know what makes YOU a bad lesbian!

ONE YEAR ANNIVERSARY

This one's for the fans! We asked you to write in with your most burning queer-ies, and in this episode, we're answering them all, from how to find your own women-loving-women squad in your hometown, to tips for bridging a ten-year age gap, what to do when your crush puts you in the friend zone, and so much more. Celebrate our inaugural year with us as we respond, reminisce, and wax rhapsodic about lesbian life and how much we love YOU! 

D.T.R.

DEFINING THE RELATIONSHIP: It's transformative, a declaration of love, a fork in the road, a fulcrum, an ending, a beginning, a point of growth or of no return. Whether you're the definer or the definee; whether it goes the way you'd been hoping or blindsides you like a rogue wave; whether it affirms your love, or dismantles it; it's likely to be an experience you won't soon forget.  If you've ever D'dTR one way or another, or just want to hear us recount the details of our doomed couplings, whirlwind romances, perfect pairings, and ill-advised affairs, go ahead and bash that play button, baby! 

DYKE BARS

They're the sites of some of our most formative queer experiences. They're the sacred, crowded, liquor-soaked spaces we turn to for community, love, solace, friendship, fun, and so much more. In this episode, we're gearing up for World Pride by payin' homage to our most beloved dyke bars, dyke parties, and dyke-adjacent watering holes near and far, with a special tribute to our cherished Cubbyhole and everyone's favorite happy hour hero, Debbie Greenberg! Bottoms up, laydeez!
