SISTER ROMA, the most photographed nun in the world, shared the music that has soundtracked her queer journey with me while promoting the very fab @hunkyjesusfilm, after it premiered at BFI Flare earlier this year.

@djmattvaughan was the first person I ever told about @tracksofourqueers over a drink in the Bearded Tit (may she rest) and has been cheering me on ever since - so it is a genuine honour and blessing to help him pull together a very special mini doc/poddy to celebrate TWENTY whole years of his magnificent and magical party LOOSE ENDS.

To sustain a party, queer or straight, anywhere in the world, for two decades is nothing short of shocking, but anyone who has been on that dance floor knows exactly why it continues.

I really love to hear stories of queer nightlife spaces we still have or have lost from all around the world, so even if you’re not in Australia and have never heard of Loose Ends, I think you’ll still love to hear about this very special party.

This episode was recorded over two conversations with Matt and includes some fabulous voice notes from legendary Loose Ends performers over the years - @ayebatonye__ @auntyjonny @hiphophoe @gangajan and @bettygrumble

@mardipantz is on Tracks of Our Queers.

This is a *delicious* conversation with my favourite trans elder creator, a witchy diva who shares the testimonials of a life lived trans with over 600k followers eager for history and legacy.

Speaking of witchy, Mardi’s musical selections are quite magical themselves. Have *you* ever invoked Diamanda Galás to scare off a stalker?

WILLIAM YANG is on Tracks of Our Queers.

One of Australia’s most vital storytellers, William has been documenting Sydney’s queer life since the 70s.

His landmark exhibitions and live slide shows have become his hallmark, and cemented his place as a queer cultural activist and documentarian.

We spoke live in Sydney at @forbesstreetstudios about William’s work, and five songs that soundtrack his queer life.

Thank you @mrbenjaminlaw for helping make this happen!
