Lost Spaces: Memories from Gay Bars, Lesbian Clubs, and LGBTQ+ Parties podcast

Lost Spaces: Memories from Gay Bars, Lesbian Clubs, and LGBTQ+ Parties

How do queer spaces help to shape people's lives?  Why are they so important to the LGBTQ+ community? What is the impact of losing these spaces? Lost Spaces explores these questions (and more!) through conversations with members of the LGBT community. Each week host K Anderson sits down with a different guest to discuss a space from their past, why it was important to them, and how it helped shape who they are. Expect conversations about coming out, going out, and getting down. And snogging strangers on sweaty dancefloors. We can't talk about gay history without that coming up.
