In Part 1 of "This Way Out's" review of some of the queerest news of 2022, we remember attacks in Republican-controlled U.S. state legislatures against LGBTQ youth, especially transgender young people; the queer angle on the year’s most reported story, Russia’s unprovoked war on Ukraine; and the almost year-long arrest and detention in Russia of WNBA All-Star Brittney Griner; with humor along the way provided by TV satirists John Oliver and Jon Stewart, and from the homoerotic relationship between "Skyfall" characters and actors Daniel ("James Bond") Craig and Javier (the film's villain) Bardem. All that and more this week when you find "This Way Out": the world's audio oasis for queer news and culture. (Part 2 of The Queerest News of 2022 fills next week's program; “NewsWrap" returns on our week of 9 January 2023 show.)
