Journalists, comedians, academics, authors, activists and artists appear alongside queer stars from the BBC’s groundbreaking I Kissed a Boy, and familiar faces from global reality franchises including Married at First Sight and TOWIE. The show also features authors of he biggest-selling LGBTQ+ books in the world and Oscar nominated film makers. Reactive, candid and often funny, the show unpacks politics, sexuality and culture through discussion and debate.
