Summary

This week I am joined by none other than Glyn Fussell and boy did we hit it off. Glyn is the founder of two absolute bedrocks of queer culture: the club night Sink The Pink and the festival Mighty Hoopla and I don’t know where we’d all be without him. I hear about what happens when you unite so many queer icons under one roof for the biggest LGBTQ+ music festival in Europe, which noughties icon was breaking in to fellow popstars dressing rooms, and why George Michael had to stop going on night’s out with Bananarama. You can buy Glyn’s book Sink The Pinks Manifesto For Misfits, Be Different, Be Free, Be You here.
