q tv: BEAR WORLD TV
The Host with the Most
Hunter Harden Hosts Hunter’s Hot Nights on Bear World TV
By Shane Gallagher
Bear World TV is the place to go for
weekly doses of news, entertainment,
and culture created specifically for
and by the bear community.
The channel spotlights five dynamic
hosts—Marquis the Honey Bear, Joe
Martone, Alexander Rodriguez, Ravi
Roth, and Hunter Harden—each
presenting weekly two-minute segments
that explore the many diverse, fun,
and entertaining aspects of bear life,
including nightlife, travel, pop culture,
humor, and community events.
Each segment brings its own unique
perspective; delivering a rich mix of flair,
humor, and authenticity, from globe-
trotting travel adventures to curated
party picks and playful nods to niche
bear culture.
Hunter Harden, international gogobear and nightlife expert, brings the party to the screen in his
nightlife-focused segment, Hunter’s Hot Nights, sponsored by Gun Oil Personal Lubricant. “It’s all
about vibe,” Harden explains. “A party with hugs, a great DJ, body positivity, and a little glitter? That’s
what I call a hot night.”
He tells us more…
Is Bear World TV only for bears?
Hunter Harden: Bear World TV is bear focused but it’s for everyone in the LGBTQ community. We
quick dive on multiple aspects of queer and bear culture.
Quick is the operative word!
HH: Everything today has to be two sentences or less in order to get people interested online.
Getting quick news is daily life so why shouldn’t our “Bear” news be the same?
How would you describe the overall vibe of the channel?
HH: Fun, supportive, and personal.
The channel is launching during Bear World Magazine’s 13th anniversary. How does it feel
to be part of this next evolution in bear media?
HH: This is very exciting for me. I’ve been modeling and doing Instagram posts for so long. Of
course, they’re just pictures. Making short videos will allow me to show more of my personality and
my own experiences touring the world attending Bear events and parties.
Did you know your co-hosts before Bear World TV?
HH: I’ve known some from being at parties. Joe and I have hung out. I was on Alexander’s podcast a
few years ago. Marquis and I were at a group photoshoot the day before we started shooting for Bear
World TV. We are all very supportive of each other and now we share this channel, our new baby cub,
and we all want it to grow!
