This week our co-hosts chat about the fervent protests and spirited discussions that have brought the legitimacy of LGBT+ organisations into sharp focus. They examine the newly published ILGA Rainbow Map highlighting the most dangerous countries for queer individuals. Then they turn to GAY45 magazine, sifting through its most-read articles to discuss the topics that have resonated most with our readers. And, as always, they round off with recommendations for the best films and TV to expand your knowledge.

Our hosts discuss the mass pro-Palestine student protests around the world in the context of the politicised atmosphere around Eurovision and the recent interviews of Pet Shop Boys, Omar Sy and Salman Rushdie. They speculate the right-wing turn in the run-up to the European elections and how will affect queer rights in the future. As a bonus, they recommend films to see, both in cinemas and at home.

Our hosts explore the recently voted Migrant Act in European Union and its consequences on queer migrants and refugees. They delve into the discussion regarding the discourse surrounding the UK’s Cass Report and the future of trans healthcare, and overview the exceptional queer presence at the most important contemporary art event, Venice Biennale. As a bonus, they invite GAY45, the lead organiser of Queer Quarter in Vienna, to unveil the event. To wrap up, they recommend films to see, both in cinemas and at home.
