It is important for us to use our platform in a way that uplifts and empowers our community. Part of that is making information more accessible and digestible. We couldn’t be more excited about our partnership with LPAC and the incredible candidates our listeners will have the opportunity to hear from, and also the chance we were given to involve more lesbian creators/artists to make learning political concepts fun and GAY!
Made It Out (To The Polls), is a voter education series that aims to empower listeners with the knowledge and confidence to engage in the 2024 election. Each episode features an LPAC-endorsed political candidate discussing ballot issues that directly impact the LGBTQIA+ community and sharing personal stories to show how politics directly affects people's lives. Guests and episode topics are Senator Tammy Baldwin on marriage equality, Lauren Ashley Simmons on the anti-LGBTQIA+ agenda, Senator Molly Cook on abortion, Senator Erin Maye Quade on reproductive freedom, Representative Becca Balint on Project 2025, and special celebrity guest, out Olympian, World Cup and National Women’s Soccer League champion Ali Krieger.
The podcast has become a vital hub for the LGBTQ+ community, consistently ranking in Spotify's Top 20 Society & Culture US Chart, and earning a Webby Award Honoree for Best Video Podcast Series within six months of launching. Her candid discussions have featured prominent guests like E.R. Fightmaster, Tayla Parx, Robby Hoffman, Alyson Stoner, and Becca Tilley. Beyond the podcast, Mal has made her mark as a presenter at LA’s Pride in the Park and as a host at GLAAD’s Tidings event, solidifying her status as a rising star and trusted voice in the LGBTQ+ community and beyond.
