“A hedgehog in my kitchen” | Episode 4

Some light and laughter in our fourth episode of this season! Tash and Adam hear memories of joy and strength from 1983 to 1991, through the log books at Switchboard and stories from people who remember those years. We also feature the Lesbian Strength Marches, Switchboard’s one-millionth call and an interview with Thigh High, the band who centre their music on queer joy. Transcript here.The Log Books — stories from Britain’s LGBT+ history and conversations about being queer today.
