OG YouTuber Gigi Gorgeous, whose real name is Gigi Lazzarato, is taking a career route tread by many an influencer — by launching her very own podcast.
Titled Queerified, the series will be co-hosted by the transgender lifestyle vlogger and her best friend, Marc ‘Mimi’ Lamentac. Premiering on June 16 in honor of Pride Month, weekly episodes will cover what it’s like to grow up queer and other life lessons, featuring guests from the LGBTQ+ community and beyond, per Variety.
At the same time, a toll-free hotline at 1-844-QUEERYS will allow listeners to offer feedback, comments, and submit questions for Lazzarato and Lamentac. New episodes roll out every Wednesday on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and Audacy (formerly Radio.com) streaming platforms.
Queerified is produced by Ramble, a podcast network that features shows starring digital creators, including Elle Mills‘ Crazy Stupid Fangirls, Charli and Dixie D’Amelio’s 2 Chix, Emma Chamberlain’s Anything Goes, Alisha Marie and Remi Cruz’s Pretty Basic, Rhett & Link’s Ear Biscuits, and Smosh’s Smoshcast. It is a division of podcast company Cadence13.
“Gigi has a larger-than-life personality, and an equally powerful voice as an activist,” Chris Corcoran, Cadence13 and Ramble’s chief content officer, said in a statement. “As Pride is celebrated around the world, we’re excited to welcome Gigi and Mimi to the Ramble and Cadence13 family.”
