COLFB223: Bear or not Bear – Is this really a question?

Hello, Ladies, Gentlemen and NBs. SOMEBODY’S GETTING MARRIED! Which means we’re taking this week off while Damon walks the aisle, Gary tries to catch the garter and bouquet, while bears ravage the reception buffet. But have no fear! Today we’re time traveling to nearly TEN YEARS AGO in August of 2013 for specia-mercial episode including previous hosts Eric and Robert! From three days away to the old-school NBCS, let’s flashback to COL Episode 223.

COL676: Where Do We Go Next?

In this episode of Cubs Out Loud, the guys chirp about the recent changes to Twitter. With Twitter announcing that they are no longer allowing some social media platforms to be linked on their site, the cubs discuss the potential abandoning ship of members and where they will flock to as they ask the question: Where do we go next?

Show Topic

Where do we go next?

Twitter recently announced another update to its policies [not yet incorporated into their TOS]. Now linking to ‘some’ other social media platforms will get your shutdown/banned. Slowly the platform has been losing users, advertisers, and the community of kink/MSM/LGBTQIA+ has been searching for a new home. Which begs some questions… Where do we go next? What do we want in our platforms? How much would we pay for such a thing? Does anyone care?

Let’s Talk About Kink: Drummer Magazine Returns

Once upon a time, bears, cubs, admirers and more around the world enjoyed turning the pages of hard copy print magazines until the pages stuck together. Then the internet appeared on the scene, shifting focus for where we got our smut. 2007 sees the landscape change with turning a mobile phone into this thing called a smartphone. Soon after paper pages are replaced by swiping and sexting. Over a decade after the iPhone’s debut, the once very much enjoyed Drummer Men adult magazine is coming back on the scene. Is there an audience for a ‘zine’ – be it online with a print option?

  • COL667v: LTA… BROS (film) – Oan R.: Hey. Just watched this review. I would say that I agree with everything that was said, however there is one point that is kind of glossed over. While yes, I agree with Gary that the main character is a pit of an arse at times, I don’t believe he does it to be mean, he’s just very passionate and opinionated. While he does have a very abrasive personality, there was one person who was attracted to him and accepted him for who he was, or at least seemed like he did up until the holiday dinner with the family. Yes I found the scene cringey, but maybe not for the reasons Gary did, as I feel the point of the scene was the boyfriend was not entirely at ease with this person who he supposedly was attracted to when introducing him to family and friends, and told him to tone himself down. This in effect resulted in the dinner scene going the way it did. I would say this is an important point made, as acceptance of who people are is a major theme in LGBTQ+ culture, and if you can’t really get that from people who are attracted to you, who will you get it from?

COL666: ATNS: Tumblr’s Second Chance?

In this episode of Cubs Out Loud, it’s another All T No Shade episode. For this one, the guys discuss the “rebirth” of Tumblr. After recent announcements made by the site indicate a possibility of mature, adult content (RE: porn), the cubs ponder the renaissance of the site after the exodus of 2018. Will Tumblr return from the dead as a source of spank bank material or is it still just a dead man walking?

ATNS: Tumblr’s Second Chance?

Word online is that Tumblr changed their permissions/T&C to allow adult content. Does this mean there’s a second chance for XXX Tumblr to return? Will people leave Twitter? Let’s chew on that.
