In this episode of The AfterMeth Podcast, host Dallas Bragg sits down with Jordan Hurt, New York City-based real estate agent and cast member of the Netflix reality series Owning Manhattan, who made headlines by publicly sharing his sobriety journey on the show's second season. Jordan opens up about a life shaped early by alcoholism, instability, and the challenges of coming out as a gay teenager in Toledo, Ohio with virtually no community or support. His story eventually led him into the sex party scene in New York City, where crystal meth entered the picture — a turning point he describes as instantly recognizable as a descent into hell. He and Dallas explore the nuanced, non-linear nature of recovery, pushing back against the all-or-nothing mindset that can cause men to spiral into shame after a relapse, and instead championing self-compassion, honest goal-setting, and the understanding that setbacks don't erase progress.
The conversation then pivots to Jordan's latest venture: Queerity, billed as the world's first sober LGBTQ+ social, dating, and hookup app. Born from the recognition that mainstream apps like Grindr can be deeply triggering — and in some cases algorithmically engineered to connect users within chemsex culture — Queerity offers a safer digital space where users can identify as sober, sober-curious, or in recovery, explore their sexuality freely, and connect with like-minded people without navigating loaded conversations about drug use. The app includes daily wellness check-ins, community event listings, and sober venue guides, and is intentionally inclusive beyond 12-step frameworks. Dallas encourages listeners in early recovery to download the app not just for connection, but as a way to practice sexual reintegration — rediscovering desire and identity in a space designed to protect their sobriety.
