COL695: LTA… The Blood Ban, Again

Leave a comment

In this episode of Cubs Out Loud, it’s time for another Let’s Talk About… This time around, the guys return to a previous conversation regarding the FDA’s recent changes to the “blood ban”. Back during COVID, the ban for men who have sex with men was relaxed somewhat. Now, the ban has been changed again and broadens the ability for MSM to give blood. But are the changes for the better? Listen in as the cubs debate the new changes and discuss the potential benefits it may have for the community at large.

Show Topic

LTA… The Blood Ban, Again

So the FDA made an announcement about changes to qualifying persons when it comes to donating blood. What exactly is the new deal? And does it benefit the LGBTQIA+ community?

  • Curvesandcrevices: Hey COL Hosts! I wanted to let you know how much I am appreciating the new format, now that I have listened to a few episodes. I thought I would really miss the What’s Going On and Tumblr segments each week, but it’s been really great the way you’ve changed it. I  think the focus on the guests or topic on the shows is perfect, and the catchup show being monthly and without a topic gives it much more room to be its own thing. Change is hard, but done right, is so worthwhile. Always appreciate your efforts; keep it up! /Chris

Facebook Comment/Post:

  • Re: COL478: LTAS: Discreets / DL – Michael Quinichett: Loved the podcast guys. To tag onto what Damon said, the “down low” or DL was also a term referenced in R&B music, specifically TLC’s 1994 “Creep” and R. Kelly’s 1995 “Down Low.” Although those songs inferred infidelity within heterosexual relationships, the DL term crossed over into queer circles with the rise of HIV cases in women in the late 90s. In 2004, the term DL was fully thrust (hehe) onto the national stage when writer J.L King wrote “On The Down Low: A journey into the lives of ‘straight’ black men who sleep with men.” He was also interviewed by Oprah the same year.
