Chris Ross is a Canadian EMT who lives in and about Vancouver with his cat Boss. He enjoys painting, baking, and Canadian content regulation specified music. He joined the Vancouver-based choir Kör in September of last year, but before that the last time he made music was playing tuba in his high school’s concert band.

Chris and Michael talk about gay kids and their (our) clumsy attempts at disguise, nontoxic models of masculine sexuality, rabbits, dance music and its potential for liberation, and finding peace in a world of turmoil.

Chris’s Five Songs.

• I Love You Always Forever by Donna Lewis.
• Jealous of Your Cigarette by Hawksley Workman.
• Dear Confessor by Immaculate Machine,
• Take Ü There by Jack Ü feat. Kiezsa and Missy Elliott.
• Ever Again by Robyn.
