Live: Community Story Share at The Lipstick Lounge (Nashville, TN / 06.06.26)

4 Aug 202636 min

This episode was recorded live at The Lipstick Lounge in Nashville, Tennessee. Lipstick, Nashville's only lesbian bar, was the last stop on our initial road trip back in 2021, and we bring you back for more stories of queer spaces and history. Act 1 features a comprehensive timeline of Nashville lesbian bars, while Act 2 dives into stories of gender identity, a college Rugby team, a first time at a lesbian bar, opening night of Lipstick in 2002, and personal accounts of the owners, Christa and Jonda.
