The lads are joined by Richard Loveday, who tells his story of growing up as gay in Port Talbot during the ‘90s and how being brought up in a religious household affected his coming out. He also explains how he came to author his own creative writing and ended up playing for Swansea Vikings RFC, one of Wales’ only gay rugby teams.

In his own inspirational, honest and candid way, Richard divulges the trials and tribulations of being “different” and how he has weathered the storm to end up stronger.
