Here Comes the 2024 Season!
Are you ready for some football? Daisy and Luke are joined in studio by our local guests, Reuben and James, and we're getting hyped for LAFC's 2024 season which is just days away. LAFC have made a number of new signings, including an LAFC original who is returning to LA. Also, Pride Republic will be hosting a happy hour a couple days before we all go to BMO to cheer on the black and gold - and you're invited!
At 9', the Day in Gay starts with updates on legislative battles ramping up across the country and then a tragic story out of Oklahoma. Then we find out the latest on the Mexican national football federation and that homophobic chant, a cool new film about the American Samoa football team, another nation legalizing same-sex marriage, and the first-ever *LAFC* "Day in Gay" story.
Then at 17', Reuben (@roobsmcgee on Instagram) and James (@terraplanner on Instagram), supporters of LAFC and members of Pride Republic, share with us how they came to the beautiful game, found each other, and hope to see more LGBTQ+ visibility in the beautiful game.
2024 is underway and, as Daisy says, "LET'S GO." Have a gay day!
