#20 Gabi & Shanna from 27 Travels on why gay representation is so important & experiencing homophobia in NYC

Saison 1 · Épisode 26

samedi 20 février 2021 • Durée 41:44

Gabi and Shanna are two travel bloggers from New York City. I’ve been following them for some time now on Instagram and living vicariously through them as they traverse the globe on their far-flung travels. I interviewed them remotely of course a few weeks back and we chatted about;

Shana’s Catholic upbringing,
experiencing homophobia at home in New York City,
their plans to open a cafe and to have a beach-house in the Caribbean one day,
our shared admiration of Hilary Duff

and lots of other things.

This is the first podcast I recorded over Zoom and I wish I had done more trial runs on the app first. I would’ve preferred if the audio was better. It’s not perfect but it’s pretty decent.

#19 Dan on being gay & a fundamentalist Christian & Nick on being outed to his parents by his boyfriend

Saison 1 · Épisode 25

jeudi 11 février 2021 • Durée 01:02:16

Dan & Nick from the 802 podcast met a few years back at a house party and instantly became firm friends. Dan is from Norfolk but now lives in London & Nick grew up in the warmer climes of Trinidad but now lives in Manchester. Their 802 podcast was born out of their friendship and the fun they have together but now has grown to include guests. It’s so important that there is much more representation for people of colour in the gay media so I’m especially happy to have them both on my podcast.

The interview was recorded remotely of course, I’m still working from my very small makeshift studio in my wardrobe at home. I chatted with Dan about;

why race was more of an issue for him than his sexuality growing up in Norfolk,
why homophobic abuse went over his head,
how he became a fundamentalist Christian in his early teens (yep that is what I just said),
why his church’s lack of acceptance ultimately forced him to leave and lots of other things.

And I chatted with Nick about;

what it was like growing up in Trinidad where homosexuality was illegal until recently,
going to secret underground gay parties there when he was a teenager,
what happened when his Dad discovered he had rented a gay movie from Blockbuster,
the traumatic experience of his first boyfriend outing him to his parents as a teenager,
his crush on Dua Lipa’s Dad and lots of other things.

#8 Rory Cowan on what it was like to be gay in Ireland pre-decriminalisation

Saison 1 · Épisode 12

jeudi 5 mars 2020 • Durée 51:47

Rory Cowan is of course one of the stars of the hit BBC sitcom Mrs Brown’s Boys. He was born in Dublin and started out working for EMI Ireland, where he eventually became their marketing manager. He subsequently went on to be a publicist for the then little-known comedian Brendan O’ Carroll. Years later, when an actor stepped down at the eleventh hour in one of Brendan’s stage shows, Rory reluctantly took on the role and the rest is history.

That stage show was of course Mrs Brown’s Boys which later became the hugely successful sitcom. The TV series started in 2012 and instantly became a ratings winner. The show has won a raft of awards including a National Television Award and a BAFTA and has also become a big hit internationally. Rory even made it onto the big screen with the spin-off movie, which topped the box office in both Britain and Ireland.

Rory left the show a few years back and has since become a narrator for Irish Googlebox and is currently starring in the soap opera Fair City.

When I met up with Rory to do the interview we chatted about;

what it was like to be a young gay man in Dublin in the 70s & 80s
his hilarious coming out to his friends story.
why it was so hard to make gay relationships work
the discrimination gay couples faced because of their lack of legal rights.
how his mother reacted when he came out

and lots of other things also.

#7 Matt Mahmood-Ogsten on dealing with & combating religious & cultural based homophobia

Saison 1 · Épisode 11

jeudi 27 février 2020 • Durée 53:04

Matt is the founder of the Naz and Matt foundation, a charity he set up to honour the memory of his late fiance Dr Nazim Mahmood, who died from suicide just days after coming out to his deeply religious family & telling them of his long-term relationship with Matt. He jumped to his death from the balcony of his apartment in 2014, aged just 34.

The Naz & Matt foundation campaigns against homophobia in schools and universities & provides help to LGBTQ+ members, who have been rejected by their religious families and communities. The charity’s mission is to never let any religion or culture come between the unconditional love of a parent and child.

During the interview Matt told me about how he and Naz met, his own coming out story, the elaborate lengths he & Naz went to to keep their relationship private, discovering old Compton St for the first time, the events which led up to Naz’s death, Matt’s advice for parents whose religious and cultural values conflict with their children’s homosexuality and lots of other things.

#6 Rory O’Neill on expanding the definition of what it means to be Irish and why he doesn't like occasional gays

Saison 1 · Épisode 10

jeudi 20 février 2020 • Durée 41:35

Rory is someone who needs no introduction. He has worked as a drag queen for over 30 years now and has toured the world many times over with his stage shows. He is also a publican, activist, writer (and shoemaker, as we hear during the interview)! He subsequently became synonomous with the equal marriage campaign in Ireland, with the country becoming the first in the world to pass it by popular vote in 2015.

He is held in such high esteem in his homeland that he earnt himself the title “the Queen of Ireland” and he is an international LGBTQ+ icon.

We met up in Dublin a few weeks back and we chatted about; growing up in Ireland in the 70s when gay people were invisible in society, how he discovered his sexuality, what it is like having a gay older brother, what he really thinks has been his life’s work, why he would consider himself an aetheist, how he really feels about drag hitting the mainstream, our shared dislike of football and lots of other things.

#5 Robert Rinder on kissing boys as a teenager & how best to deal with homophobes

Saison 1 · Épisode 9

jeudi 13 février 2020 • Durée 58:21

Series 2 is here!!! Thanks to everyone for all your support and lovely messages for the first series. I have lots of new episodes coming in the next few weeks with guests such as Panti Bliss and Rory Cowan. But what better way to kick off the new run than with everyone's favourite no-nonsense, tough-talking TV judge Robert Rinder.

Robert achieved a First Class Honours Degree in Politics and Modern History from the University of Manchester and was called to the bar at the tender age of 21.

His TV career which followed has been a happy accident. Robert was writing crime drama scripts as a side hustle, when a fortuitous meeting with an ITV executive, led to him being cast as the judge on the UK version of the hit American series Judge Judy.

Judge Rinder has of course gone on to become a huge hit and often averages 1 million viewers per episode, which for a daytime show is pretty brilliant.

Robert has since appeared on Strictly, Who Do You Think You Are and had his own Friday night chat show on Channel 4.

I met up with Robert a while back and we chatted about; his teenage crushes (all Scandinavian by the way!!!), what it’s like to be gay and Jewish, dealing with homophobia within the legal profession, why he has changed his mind about same-sex dancing partners on Strictly, his advice for those who are currently in the midst of the coming out process and lots of other things also!!!

#4 Andy West on how his experiences with women made him realise he was gay

Saison 1 · Épisode 8

vendredi 16 août 2019 • Durée 40:57

People resign from their jobs all the time. But when Andy West left his job as a BBC journalist in 2015 it made headline news. Because his was no ordinary resignation; it was in response to Tyson Fury’s nomination for the BBC Sports Personality of the Year awards (Tyson is widely known to be homophobic and misogynistic).

Andy subsequently became a contestant on Big Brother the following year and finished fourth overall. He now pops up regularly on our TV screens on show such as This Morning, Jeremy Vine’s show on Channel 5 and of course locking horns with Piers Morgan on Good Morning Britain.

He is also a highly acclaimed journalist and has written for the Independent, the Gay Times, Grazia and is currently working on his debut novel.

When I met up with Andy in London we were faced with a number of challenges (his lengthy washing machine delivery and my technical issues to be precise) but eventually we got down to doing the interview and we chatted about;

why Andy felt he had no option but to resign from the BBC,
the sacrifices he has had to make for his principles,
the homophobia he experienced whilst working in the media,
his sheltered upbringing,
Andy’s desperate bids to fit in at school,
the confusion he felt over his sexuality,
the experience that made him realise he was gay and that he had to come out,
and why he says he still isn’t proud to be a gay man.

#3 Steven Carter Bailey on growing up gay & Mormon and his struggle with food addiction

Saison 1 · Épisode 4

vendredi 12 juillet 2019 • Durée 42:58

Steven Carter-Bailey was a finalist on GBBO in 2017 (his series is still on All4, if you haven’t seen it). He won three star bakers and several of those ever-elusive Hollywood Handshakes during his time on the show. He also won the New Year’s Day Bake Off this year and even got a Hollywood hug!!!

Steven has worked as a special reporter for ITV news, appeared on the Last Leg on Channel 4 and is currently very busy appearing at food festivals all around Britain.

I am a huge Great British Bake Off fan and I’m obsessed with his Instagram (photos of incredible cake and a cute British bulldog is= Instagram gold) so it was great to be able to meet and chat with him.

Steven was incredibly open and honest and this was at times a very emotional interview. We chatted about;

the elaborate lies he had to tell to keep his participation on GBBO a secret.
feeling different to his peers whilst growing up.
what it was like growing up gay and Mormon.
experiencing homophobia from teachers.
coming out to his sister and friends.
why his grandmother was the first person he told.
how his mother reacted when he came out to her.
how he has struggled with his weight over the years.
experiencing homophobia as an adult.
and his enduring crush on a certain Mr William Young.
