151. "38 Witnesses, No One Called Police"- The Murder of Kitty Genovese & The Bystander Effect
A woman’s desperate screams. 38 people witness a woman being attacked on the street. No one intervenes allowing an attack to go on for 40 minutes, ultimately leading to murder. In March 1964, Kitty Genovese was attacked just steps from her New York apartment. Reports claimed thirty-eight witnesses saw or heard parts of the assault, and yet no one intervened. Kitty was more than a headline, she was a 28-year-old bartender, daughter, sister, and a lesbian quietly building a life with the woman she loved. But her death became one of the most infamous tragedies in queer history, not only for the brutality of the crime, but for what it revealed about society’s indifference. In this episode, we examine the myths, the truths, and how the case shaped both the criminal justice system and the narrative of LGBTQ+ lives in danger.Hosted by Jordi and Brad, Beers With Queers brings chilling crimes, queer stories, and twisted justice to light, all with a cold one in hand.Press play, grab a drink, and join us as we uncover the darkest corners of LGBTQ+ history.

150. Lawrence vs Texas One Of The Most Important Cases In American Queer History
A late night knock. A false report. An arrest that should never have happened. And a landmark case that would change the lives for millions of queer Americans. What began as a humiliating raid in a small Houston apartment would ignite a legal battle that reshaped queer life in America. In 1998, John Geddes Lawrence and Tyron Garner were dragged from Lawrence’s home and charged under a Texas law that criminalized their very existence. They were not activists. They were not politicians. They were ordinary men caught in an extraordinary injustice that exposed how fragile freedom could be when queerness was treated as a crime.This case, Lawrence v. Texas, became a turning point in LGBTQ+ history. It struck at the heart of sodomy laws still on the books in more than a dozen states. In this episode, we trace the humiliating arrest, the years of legal battles, and the cultural shockwaves that followed. The story reveals how one case helped dismantle centuries of stigma and changed the landscape for queer rights in the United States. This is queer history, true crime, and justice colliding in one of the most important cases in American law.Hosted by Jordi and Brad, Beers With Queers brings chilling crimes, queer stories, and twisted justice to light all with a cold one in hand.Press play, grab a drink, and join us as we uncover the darkest corners of LGBTQ+ history.
