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.

From Fears 2 Fierce
Hey Bessie, send us a text message!
MATURE CONTENT WARNING.
We sashay into the juicy world of fears and anxieties of queers. It seems family and societal acceptance are still things that keep us up at night (spoiler: hindi ka nag-iisa, Bes). Being outed when you're not ready? Financial instability? Plus may umamin sa mga Bessies na sila ay previous victim of assault!
So we dish out our fears through relatable stories, serve up some much-needed real talk, and sprinkle a bit of fierceness into how we try to overcome our sources of worry and angst.
It's time to turn fears into fierceness, Bes! Enjoy this refreshing break from our recent sexcapades! Hungover pa kami from PRIDE because Pride never ends!
