Todays episode is a little more of a mellow pace as we reflect on Mardi Gras season 2024, with the tragic passing of Jesse Baird and Luke Davies at the hands of a cop one week out from the parade. What does this mean for our discussion surrounding Police presence at Pride? And what does it mean to truely create safe spaces for queer people?

Welcome to heartbreak club part 10001…I can’t keep track anymore and honestly I don’t want to think what that says about my dating life. BUT, one thing I do know is no matter your circumstances heartbreak SUCKS. This isn’t my first rodeo and if it's yours I’m sure you’re dying to know, “but does it get easier?” Sorta! The pain remains but I feel like you learn how to navigate the nastiness of a break up better the more times you experience it. SO without further ado here are my learnings and tip...

Get your “love is love” tees washed because it's Mardi gras season baby! Ok don’t get us twisted, we think Mardi Gra is SLAY, but sometimes it can be a little morally tricky for the queers as they navigate "Getting that bag" whilst having our experiences capitalised for financial gain. Usually for not a lot in return. Look, there is nothing wrong (in fact a lot right) with big corporations putting money behind community but what happens when it isn’t reflected all year round? What happens when t...

Todays conversation is a soft one. With 77% of adults consuming Alcohol weekly it has become so normalised in our society many of us don’t even know why we drink, we just do. For many, drinking begins in adolescence as a means to assert your independence and cool factor to other peers. As an adult alcohol is a way to socialise with other adults. A lot of drinking culture is centred around connecting. What if you didn’t drink alcohol but remained just as connected. Kath has been sober since the a...

Todays conversation is soft but one I think we need to casually have more often. It's important to celebrate all the ways in which people come to their sexual identity. Many of us figure out our queerness in those early stages of development - maybe childhood or during adolescence. But, what if your path to queerness came to you as a surprise? Sometimes the conversation can lead to possible pressure for people to just know and know young and never change. As Kath sat through many casual conversa...
