This week on Butt Honestly, Dr. Carlton and Dangilo roll out the red (and probably leather) carpet for a real-life superhero—San Diego’s own Paulo Batista He’s a former leather titleholder, an activist, a board member of Sparta Pride and Trans Family Support Services, a sometimes runway model (hello, fierce!), and now an active-duty transgender service member. Basically, if Paulo had any more titles, we’d need a longer episode description.The guys get into it—really into it—chatting with Paulo about what it means to serve authentically in today’s military and the very real threat of a renewed trans military ban. But this isn’t just politics and policy—it’s personal, passionate, and powerful AF.They also talk about:Pablo’s work with Sparta Pride and how the org supports trans folks in the armed forcesHow he keeps his mental health strong when the world feels a little too on fire (spoiler: it doesn’t involve doomscrolling)His leather journey—from titleholder to mentor to full-blown icon statusAnd because this is Butt Honestly, you know we couldn’t wrap things up without: ✨ A couple rounds of Hit It or Quit It 💗 And, of course, their Love Languages of the Week, because we’re here to uplift your heart while gently stretching your limits.Whether you're into leather, activism, or just love a damn good conversation with a side of sass, this episode delivers. Suit up, strap in, and press play. 🎙️🍑Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
