## Resource

It's Seeking Sunday! Ben here. Today, writer, podcaster, and fellow evil gay Steven Phillips-Horst joins me. We discuss sublet season, how Steven's stint working with a women's plus-size boot company led him to write a play about ecological collapse, and why I was recently yelled at for lingering near a sandwich. We also consider the long running Twitter tradition of gang beating the Gay Guy Group Photo, and what happened when Steven found himself at the center of one of those pile ons.
