The Naked Truth: Queer Artist Interviews podcast was hosted by Peter Pup Orpheus, and served to highlight the lives and artwork of queer artists. The first season began with the featured artists of the 2020 Pride Month Exhibition, interviewing artists of diverse mediums and backgrounds to share their lives, discuss their work, and explore the intersections between their sexuality and their artwork. Season 1 concluded in October 2020. Season 2 launched on June 10, 2021. As of August 2021, the show is no longer active.
