  • Love Metal, love being LGBTQ+, then this is for you

    As a mid-30’s gay woman, a place for LGBTQ+ metalheads is exactly what’s been missing from the scene. Great to listen to metal discussions from a LGBTQ+ point of view.

    Would love to hear some more (any) female content, but otherwise keep up the good work gents! 👏🏼

  • Exactly what I needed!

    HBFM has already become my favourite podcast, hands down.

    I knew Tom Dare’s work as I’m a metalhead and journalist myself, but didn’t know he was gay, so to feel represented by this fine gentleman is really exciting.

    Highly recommended to everyone, even if they aren’t into heavy metal

  • The Perfect Voice

    As a gay man and the biggest fan of Rock and Metal, this is the perfect discussion on the representation of an underrepresented community. It is wonderful to have a voice that helps fly the flag for heavy metal LGBT! Can’t wait for the new episode and excited to go through the back catalogue xD
