In this episode of Ur Typical Podcast, Donnie sits down with the Founding Artistic Director of National Queer Theater and the Obie Award–winning Criminal Queerness Festival, Adam Odsess-Rubin.

Adam is a queer community organizer and artistic leader advancing performance as a tool for global LGBTQ+ advocacy. He has produced work with Carnegie Hall, Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts, New York Theatre Workshop, HERE Arts Center, MCC Theater, NYC Pride, and PAC NYC, positioning queer artists on major U.S. stages.

In this episode Donnie and Adam discuss the origin story of National Queer Theater, how art can be used as a form of activism, and the importance of intentionality when working towards inclusion in theater. This conversation highlights the impact of seeing your own and others' stories told in theater, and the push to learn more that such works can evoke.

Donnie and Mikhail Sokoloff are back breaking down Survivor 50 Episode 6—and the Blood Moon has officially arrived 🌕🩸

But instead of delivering high-stakes chaos, it leaves players reacting more than strategizing. With the game hitting the merge, castaways are split into small groups for a triple tribal council, turning the game into a whirlwind of split-second decisions and impossible positions.

We also dive into Cirie’s continued dominance 👑, as she remains one of the most powerful players heading into the next phase of the game. On the flip side, Genevieve finds herself in a no-win situation thanks to the twist, and we unpack Chrissy’s “cut from the same cloth” comment and the conversation it sparked online.
