Hey, Barbs. Do you like the new nickname I came up with for my young, hip, rabidly devoted, extremely online House of Barbrism fan base?

Since I started House of Barbrism last fall, a lot of people have been asking about my closet and coming out experiences. Like the cocktease I am, I’ve revealed bits of it here and there but figured it was high time to do so a little more formally. I published a slightly longer version of this piece in the recent issue of the Signal House Edition a…

The title says it all! On last week's episode of Adventures in Gaybysitting, the recently-out Documenta Barbrism shared how nervous and excited he was to attend his first orgy. After much anticipation and harness-fitting, and despite hobbling self-doubt, he finally arrived at the Airbnb, but things didn't go quite as planned. On this Very Special E…

Covid didn't manage to kill the new Broadway musical Flying Over Sunset, about fancy folk taking LSD in the 50s, but would we all have been better off if it had? The jury is still out, but we have...thoughts on the matter. At the very least, it gives Documenta Barbrism and Dingle Mary a chance to explore the life and work of the first in our ongoin…

This week Documenta is flying solo! To help ease nerves ahead of his first orgy, Documenta Barbrism shares what it's like navigating gay dating apps full of blank profiles in suburban hell as a recently-out 41-year-old bear/chub. That whole sentence is true, btw. If any part of it doesn't make sense, just listen. Tbh, though, it still may not make …

Documenta Barbrism and Dingle Mary honor the late, capital-G Great Stephen Joshua Sondheim. This was one of the most difficult, and fun, episodes to record yet. There's so much to say about the endlessly rich and inventive body of work Sondheim left behind, and we'll be saying it for years to come. For now, we highlight our favorite Sondheim shows …
