GAYDHD with EMMA WILLMAN is a podcast for people who like comedy, curiosity, and conversations that can go from unhinged to weirdly insightful in under thirty seconds. Expect comics, tangents, oversharing, strong opinions with limited research, and the occasional moment of accidental depth. No grand theme yet, which honestly feels on brand. We’re just putting episodes out, figuring out what this thing is, and quietly trying to make it the biggest podcast in the world.

05. Catfishing, Closet Cases & Code Switching with Akeem Woods
Wednesday, June 10, 2026 • Duration 01:05:48
Comedian Akeem Woods joins Emma Willmann for a hilarious and surprisingly deep conversation about gay hookup culture, getting catfished, and what it really means to code switch as a queer person of color.
Akeem opens up about growing up closeted in Florida, fabricating a fake girlfriend named Kiana on Facebook, and the moment he finally came out at 25. Emma shares her own unforgettable Craigslist catfish story involving a "supermodel" and a 7-Eleven in Queens — and yes, it ends exactly how you'd expect.
They also dig into the heated rivalry around the show 'Rivals' (yes, they watched it), the manosphere documentary and whether those guys are just deeply closeted, bottom-shaming inside the gay community, and why straight women at gay bars is a whole conversation we still need to have.
This episode gets real about the exhaustion of never fully belonging in any one space — whether you're the only Black person in a queer room or the only queer person at the family cookout. Plus: top, bottom, or versatile? The discourse is alive and well.
Funny, honest, and genuinely moving in places — this one's a must-watch.
04. Shame Spirals, ADHD & a Baby in a Blizzard | GAYDHD with Emma Willmann
Tuesday, June 2, 2026 • Duration 57:01
Emma Willmann sits down with comedian Ashley Austin Morris for an honest, hilarious deep-dive into life with ADHD — from shame spirals over undone dishes to hyperfocus mysteries, lost wallets, and thriving in total chaos.
Ashley opens up about growing up in Texas housing projects, being pulled in and out of school, and never having ADHD formally explained to her — yet somehow always knowing her brain worked differently. Emma and Ashley bond over the peculiar ADHD gift of shining in a crisis (even one you personally created), the complicated feelings around medication, and why the early days of the pandemic felt like a bizarre relief.
They also get into postpartum life, emergency C-sections, fighting with nurses on morphine, the surprisingly slow arrival of that "instant bond" with a newborn, and how having a baby can finally snap ADHD priorities into focus. Plus: a Reddit 'Am I the Asshole?' segment about an ADHD husband who is, in his wife's words, "a golden retriever with direct deposit."
