The Balut Kiki Project
Tuloy lang, mga Bes! We are an international award-winning Filipino podcast by fabulous members of the LGBTQIA+ community. Our goal is to normalize and de-stigmatize conversations that Pinoys generally only talk about in secret - mental health problems (like depression and suicide), sex, sexuality and the human body, non-traditional relationships, among others. "Balut" is a Filipino delicacy consisting of a fertilized developing egg embryo that is boiled and eaten from the shell. So, we aim to make our episodes nutritious though they are not for the faint of heart. While "kiki" is queer slang for a gathering among friends. Kaya we throw in discussions about queer culture and interests - because why not, diba? We are uniquely PINOY. We are unapologetically QUEER. Join your hosts Mel, Geoff, Nealle together with Peter, Morey, Kenny, Choi, and a bevy of other Bessies! Winner, BEST PODCAST HOST, 1st Asia Podcast Festival Awards, Singapore.

The Last 3 Years
Hey Bessie, send us a text message!
MATURE CONTENT WARNING.
Our poddy is 3 years old this month! We celebrate by simply looking back at where we first started and where this wild journey has taken us. Cheers to the sometimes fun and senseless, and sometimes serious conversations we've had. We raise a glass to some amazing guests who have graced our projects, and toast the meaningful kikis we've had just on our own.
Some features on this project are:
My Daughter's Suicide
Ang Teacher na Nagbenta ng Aliw
Kiki with a Pornstar
Buhay Intersex
Blind Journalist: LGBTQ Profiles
Kiki With a Drag Race Winner
Addicted to Drag: Maria Christina
Plus some of our most popular episodes like The Pilot, Bekirida, Ang Titi, Vagina Kiki, Tamod, Chupa, Tumbong, Self-Harming, and more!
Special thanks to other special guests and Bessies like Doc Papi of Kiki ni Doc, Citybuoy of The Stories I Wish You Heard, Sir Red of Haynayan At Agham, Ron of Cinephiles, our Bessies from Tsaastrology, and Ms. Christine Abrigana of Lagim Podcast ! (Hindi na po namin matandaan lahat, your honor!)
