Summary

Writer/director/friend of the show John Butler (Handsome Devil! Papi Chulo! Amazon’s The Outlaws!) makes a return appearance from a similarly rainy Dublin, for a conversation that goes to unexpected, beautiful and nameless places. Along the way, we dive into: standup specials, Colm Toibin, Bronski Beat, Heartstoppers, Barbarian, Edmund White, being along vs. being lonely, a unique and rarely-discussed form of queer love and grief, the special magic of Irish Sea, and, you know, GOD.
