What did we want to be when we grew up?

Before the four of us were The Old Gays, we were singers, city planners, grant writers, shop owners…and even a very unsuccessful farmer.

So this week, we’re dishing about the jobs, passions, hobbies, and creative pursuits that shaped our lives, and the unexpected detours along the way. You’ll hear from each of us about the things that lit us up: from performing around the world and meeting the Pope, to designing cities, making human sculptures, and surviving more than one major career pivot. 

And along the way, we’ll reflect on the work we loved, the dreams that changed, and why it’s never too late to reinvent yourself.

The Old Gays: Queer icons. Viral sensations. Palm Springs royalty. And totally unfiltered! Robert Reeves, Jessay Martin, Bill Lyons, and Michael “Mick” Peterson reflect on the many lives they’ve lived and the lessons they’ve learned along the way.
