Baby Gay: Queer Culture Unfiltered
The BabyGay™ Podcast drops every Thursday...your front-row seat to real, unfiltered queer stories. Hosted by PJ Brescia (they/them) — a 2025 Out100 honoree — and recorded at the iconic Black Cat in Silverlake, CA, birthplace of queer resistance.
Each week, PJ sits down with incredible guests to talk about coming out, awkward first kisses, career paths, and those big, beautiful “aha” moments that make us who we are. It’s funny, heartfelt, and unapologetically queer.
Beyond the mic, BabyGay™ is a community — the team behind the campaign that helped make National Coming Out Day an official Los Angeles city holiday, and creators of the Welcome-Wagon Box initiative, supporting people through their coming out journey.
Subscribe, share, and join our chosen family. Whether you’re questioning, newly out, or just love authentic LGBTQ+ stories... you’re exactly where you’re meant to be. And remember: there’s no “right way” to be queer.
Welcome to BabyGay. Coming out looks good on you! 🌈

Feeling alone in your coming out journey? This episode is for you. On this week’s BabyGay™ Podcast, host PJ Brescia (they/them) sits down with Jorge Valencia (he/him), CEO of Point Foundation—the nation’s largest scholarship-granting organization for LGBTQ+ and ally students.
Jorge shares his powerful coming out story, growing up in a Mormon Latino family in Texas and coming out at 28. From Brigham Young University (BYU) to Washington, D.C. and the Clinton administration, to leading The Trevor Project during a period of major national growth.
We talk about LGBTQ+ identity, queer visibility, and why so many LGBTQ youth still feel alone today...plus how education and mentorship can become the “light at the end of the tunnel.” Through his leadership at Point Foundation, Jorge is helping thousands of LGBTQ students access scholarships, build community, and step into their future as leaders.
Point Foundation’s new campaign launches February 26, 2026, with a goal to raise $625,000 in 125 days to support 1,250 LGBTQ+ students by the end of Pride.
