A longform interview podcast featuring key activists and trailblazers in British LGBTQ+ history, hosted by Jonathan Chambers and James Alexander. It brings you in on key moments from our past that should not be forgotten, from the fearmongering and hatred in the British press during the AIDS crisis, to the vital work of Switchboard and the campaigns against the homophobic policy Section 28.

The podcast does two things well. It provides a great audio record and, at a time when trans rights are being rolled back and much of the media is involved in a moral panic about trans people, this podcast is a timely reminder of why we have to keep fighting.
