Being footloose and fancy free for the first time as a single man for the past year, Occasionalfag Brian G has had the time to focus on items outside of the concerns brought on by hibernating in a relationship and what he thinks he has discovered in his foraging about in the gay community is that the collective nature of those men who call themselves Bears seems to have changed drastically in the past few years.

To challenge and help elaborate on this topic he and his fellow Occasionalfag David b have called in friends Aaron and Cyrus for a FagFest chat on the spectrum of all things Bear.

Now keep in mind that the name of this podcast is neither The Authoritative Fag nor The Academic Fag.  We suppose we could have called in an expert on Bear identity, but then it wouldn't have been so much of a conversation, but a lecture.  We'd rather stumble around a bit in the darkened cave and that we do, with no help from skype as technical glitches chewed at this podcast as much as we did...

Enjoy!
