Liz Culley, Host of Queer Pop-Culture Podcast Cool Cool Cool
Meet Liz Culley, queer female podcaster, producer and entertainment industry badass.
Liz Culley is a self-identified bisexual who married a lesbian. So for everyone out there who would instantly reject a woman for being bisexual, keep that in mind.
In this episode Liz Culley talks about coming out, making lesbian friends, being bisexual in queer spaces, feeling left out of the queer community, the difference between attracting men versus attracting women, the experience of girls being mean when we were younger, grudges against people who were jerks in the past, women undermining each other instead of supporting each other, getting stabbed in the back by co-workers she thought were her friends, lack of support from other queer content creators, how she got ahead by making opportunities for herself, and her favorite queer female content she thinks everyone should follow.
