My lord it's a long boy today everybody! Gear up for an action packed ep full of all the queer bits you could possibly dream of.
This week we are joined by Issy, all round nice gal and super active member of Manchester's premier co-operative arts and social space, Partisan! She fills us in on all the good work Partisan are doing in Manchester with a special mention to the gorgeous queer event Fatty Acid(https://bit.ly/2OZfzao) happening this month, and hopefully many more months to come!
We talk Jordan Peele's 'Us' and our general experiences with horror films, plus 'Line of Duty' and 'Santa Clarita Diet'.
Discussions are had about the beauty of swearing, the rise of internet shaming and the importance of the decriminalisation of sex work (BTW the person Olivia wanted to shout out from Savage Love cast was Mistress Matisse, follow her on Twitter here: https://twitter.com/mistressmatisse?lang=en).
Plus we weigh in on the disappointing news about Brunei and discuss what action can be taken in the face of hate.
Oh and make sure to stay tuned to hear all about our favourite songs to cry to!
