Pridefinder: The Rainbow Road Trip Podcast

Pipa & Rowan - Wangaratta

Listen

Description

Pipa (they/them) & Rowan (she/they/he) are both young people who live in Wangaratta.​

Pipa & Rowan both share some of their experiences and insights about being queer in a regional town. They are both quite softly spoken, but speak with a gentle wisdom about how they'd like things to continue to improve for young people in north-east Victoria. They share with us what they think are their own superpowers and what the word 'Pride' means to them. ​

There are no significant trigger warnings for this episode, but if you find anything distressing then please seek support from a loved one or one of the helplines listed at the bottom of this description.

This podcast is released every Tuesday and Friday and could not have been possible without the support of our local community partners, Midsumma and the Fairer Victoria portfolio of the Victorian State Government.​
