In this throwback episode we revisit some of the most profound and powerful conversations we have had in the first year of Queeriosity.

Dementia Champion Paddy Crosbie discusses caring for his late husband and his work with the Dementia Carer’s Campaign Network.

Non-Diet Nutritionist Niamh Orbinski talks about diet culture and body image issues in the LGBTQ+ community.

Housing activist Eileen Leahy from Aisteach shares efforts to create co-operative housing for queer individuals.

Finally, Mammies For Trans Rights explain their activism at LGBTQ+ pride events and protests.

How does @janetdevlinofficial end up touring with @russellcrowe?

Why through @teddysphotos of course!

We had the privilege of chatting to Janet about her time on XFactor and her upcoming album ‘Emotional Rodeo’ plus we’ll be playing her new single ‘Country Singer’ her time on the XFactor and the motivation behind being so open and honest about her mental health struggles.

WE LOVE YOU JANET.

We also chat with Ollie Bell (@classconsciousqueer) of @transpridedublin as the 5th Trans and Intersex pride march takes place in Dublin this weekend.

We have a catch up call with our favourite @dublinbusnews driver Diane Somers to hear whether her first @dublinpride lived up to her expectations or not AND your unqualified Agony Guncles are BACK to restore peace to your chaotic lives.

We have you spoilt x

Post Pride blues? Us too, but we are going to try our best to turn those frowns upside down on this week's Queeriosity!

In our Rainbow Round Up, we have a chat about Joe Biden's pardon to ex US service members who were convicted of crimes due to their sexual orientation, Trans and Intersex Pride 2024 and Lily Allen's latest career move as she launches an OnlyFans for her feet!

With Electric Picnic adding more artists to this year's line up during the week, we are gooped and gagged at the Electric Picnic X Eurovision crossover we deserve but never expected!

We are also joined by Fionn Kidney, founder of Queer Sheds a new initiative with the aim of creating a new type of an inclusive, non-judgmental, and safe environment where LGBTQ+ people can connect, engage, co-create, share and support each other particularly in rural areas. He will tell us all about the first Queer Shed currently up and running in Clare, the demand from other communities for their own Queer Shed and Faoin Tuath, a 3 day festival for queer people with an aim to connect beyond the city, featuring practical skill-sharing workshops, talks, live music performances, DJs, traditional music sessions, film screenings, shared meals and more.

Faoin Tuath runs from the 26th to the 28th of July and more information can be found by clicking here.
