Pride History

To celebrate Pride Month, I thought it was the perfect opportunity to look at the origins of Pride, as well as some perhaps lesser-known facts about the community. We’re also going to delve into Queer culture and hear from some absolute legends. 

And it doesn’t matter if you’re queer or identify as straight, whatever - this episode is all about celebration, resilience and coming together in all our different forms. Also, I don’t want to toot my own horn but it’s really interesting. So without further ado – let’s dive on in…
