    We’re here, and we’re still queer. Today The Government announced a 75-point LGBT action plan, and amongst other things pledged to ban gay conversion ‘therapy’ in the UK. In this episode we look at what that means for us, and the part we played in shedding light on this 'abhorrent practice’. For information regarding your data privacy, visit acast.com/privacy

    Episode 5: Queer and Disabled

    Episode 5: Queer and Disabled

    We like to think of the queer scene as inclusive and accepting - but is everyone truly made to feel welcome? This week we're joined by Tammy Reynolds, a producer who also performs drag in her spare time. Tammy has a form of dwarfism and often finds queer venues hard to access - sometimes even impossible. Hosts Josh Parry and Emilia Bona chat to Tammy about what it's like to be disabled and queer in Liverpool.Klub Kids were contacted for comment, but at the time the podcast was published were yet to respond.

Listening to first episode is brilliant

Excellent

So happy there’s finally a podcast looking at Liverpool’s queer scene. Everyone concentrated on the capital so for someone to look North for a change is fantastic. Everyone should subscribe. ❤️

Could be better

Liverpool has a long and interesting queer history and I feel this podcast misses the point a bit. Emilia has terrible diction and speaks too fast rendering her unintelligible at times.
