In honor of #pridemonth I’m listening to the audiobook “Hi Honey, I’m Homo!” By #MattBaume. It details the history of queering of American culture through sitcoms, from #Bewitched to #ModernFamily and everything in between!

Hung out yesterday in Seattle with queer TV historian extraordinaire Matt Baume, author of the new book HI HONEY, I'M HOMO, an entertaining, well-researched history of queer characters on American sitcoms and TV specials. He's a nice, smart guy who is clearly enthusiastic about his subject matter. Check out Matt's videos on YouTube.
At the coffee shop, he showed me his dog-eared, heavily annotated copy of my own book, Alternate Channels, which was awfully sweet of him.

Matt Baume's new video looks at the 1997 coming-out episode of ELLEN, which turned Ellen DeGeneres's sitcom into the first U.S. TV series with an out-and-proud gay main starring character. Matt examines the episode itself and the backstage story and controversy behind it.

Just got back from Matt Baume's book signing in NYC for his new book "Hi Honey, I'm Homo!: Sitcoms, Specials, and the Queering of American Culture."
The parts I've read tonight are very good, exploring not just the content of 20th-century and early-21st-century sitcoms but also the behind-the-scenes planning, activism, and machinations that shaped them.
In the 2nd photo, that's Matt on the left and me on the right.
