"Fat People Didn't Exist In The Gay Community" (with James from Sissy That Pod)

from Lost Spaces: Memories from Gay Bars, Lesbian Clubs, and LGBTQ+ Parties · host lost queer spaces

Usually on this show we talk to someone about a very specific time in their life when they went to a particular venue. What we don't do that often is look at the same venue at different time periods, and reflect on the journey and the growth that the person experienced in the intervening years... But, today, James O'Hagan, writer, activist and co-host of the Drag Race recap podcast Sissy That Pod visits to tell us all about two periods in his life going to Break for the Border, a bar in Ireland's capital, Dublin. We hear about his first attempts at going out as a scared wee thing in his early 20s, and then coming back in his late 20s to have a totally different experience (and outlook on life). Oooh, also, if you like odd little analogies that are inserted seemingly randomly in to conversations then you're going to love this conversation! Do you have any memories of Break for the Border, or clubbing from your own queer scene that you want to share?
