  • What a find

    I found this podcast through the cross over with Like Minded Friends and could not be happier that I did. Heartwarming, inclusive and not afraid to tackle the big issues and concerns that affect many in the LGBTQIA+ community, I have been merrily routing through the back catalogue and have loved every episode I’ve heard. Thank you to all concerned for this thoroughly excellent podcast.
