Are bi+ people really just doing it for attention? On this episode, our guest was L.A. based singer-songwriter Lucy & La Mer, whose music radiates self-love and joy while celebrating multi-gender attracted identity.
Lucy let us know about her bi+ identity and activism, as well as her passion for creating music that makes people feel good. Together, we unpacked the harmful stereotype that bi+ people are just doing it for attention, exploring how it shows up differently across genders, how it impacts dating and relationships, and how we can avoid others placing this stereotype on us.

This week on Big Bi+ Questions, we’re asking: Can you be a Gold Star Bi?
We’re joined by Stephanie Dogfoot — poet, comedian, and cabaret performer bringing their hit Melbourne Fringe show Gold Star Bisexual to life. Together, we unpack where the idea of “gold stars” in queer culture comes from, what it says about validation and purity, and why bisexuality has always been a little too gloriously complicated to fit inside neat labels.
Steph shares their story of growing up in Singapore, discovering bi+ identity, and turning that journey into comedy that’s as heartfelt as it is hilarious. We also talk about the bi+ experience across cultures, visibility, and how performance can turn personal identity into community connection. And she share her poem Dear 12 year old self!

This week on Big Bi+ Questions, we go on safari — rainbow safari, that is!
Join Tamzyn and  Raena as they channel their inner David Attenborough to ask: Can you really spot a Bi in the wild?
Armed with our Bi+ stereotype quiz, we track down the elusive signs — cuffed jeans, puns, finger guns, and an alarming number of simultaneous beverages — and ask whether any of these truly mean anything at all.
Along the way, our guest helps unpack why these jokes stick, what they say about belonging, and how humour and visibility can actually help build community.
Hit play for laughter, light-hearted field research, and a dash of truth about bi+ identity,,,
LISTEN NOW.
AFTER LISTEN HERE….when this aired we also played a bit of WELL WELL WELL interview… the full one can be heard here….
Celebrate Bisexuality Day with Big Bi+ Questions

Why does visibility matter so much for the bi+ community? In this special live episode, we dive deep into the importance of Bi Visibility Day with guest Steve Spencer — consultant, educator, researcher, and ambassador for QTopia Sydney and the Bobby Goldsmith Foundation, as well as co-host of Give It To Me Bi. @giveittomebi
Steve shares his journey, the role of bi+ representation, and why being seen is more than just a label. Our hosts Jase, Tamzyn and Raena open up about their own perspectives on visibility, from navigating stereotypes to celebrating joy.
Along the way, we hear from our community — including a message from Mia on the power of breaking free from limiting structures — and reflect on what visibility really means for bi+ people today.
Join the conversation and repeat after us: We exist. We are valid. We are visible.

In this episode of Big Bi+ Questions, we dive into the lived experiences of bisexual sero-discordant (sero-different) relationships — where one partner is HIV+ and the other is HIV-. Our guests, Seth and Cass, join Jase and Tamzyn to share their stories of love, disclosure, stigma, and resilience.
We explore what it means to navigate HIV together, the importance of visibility and accurate information, and how stigma can be challenged through openness and connection. Along the way, we talk labels, community, and the changing future of HIV treatment and understanding.
Whether you’re bi+, curious, or just want to understand sero-discordant relationships better, this episode is filled with honesty, compassion, and hope.

Have you ever wondered if you’re “bi enough”? Bi imposter syndrome — also called queer imposter syndrome — is that feeling of doubt or fraudulence that can creep in when stereotypes, biphobia and heteronormativity weigh heavily on our sense of self.
In this episode of Big Bi+ Questions, we’re joined by Ashley, a registered counsellor specialising in LGBTQIA+ wellbeing, who brings both personal insight and professional experience to the discussion. Together we explore why imposter syndrome shows up in bi+ lives, how it can undermine our relationships and mental health, and the small but powerful steps we can take to challenge it. Ashley shares practical tools for spotting the signs, building community, and replacing doubt with pride and belonging. Repeat along with us: “I am enough. I am valid. I belong.”

On this episode of Big Bi+ Questions we got to know our co-host Raena a little better, including finally putting her through our bi+ stereotype research survey, which she’s been waiting for weeks to get involved in. We then dove into our big question: ‘why is it important to fly your bi+ colours?’, including chatting about the history and meaning of the bisexual and pansexual flags, how it feels to see someone proudly flagging their multi-gender attraction, and how symbols can signal safety and community.

Why do so many animals get caught up in the human debate about bisexuality? This week on Big Bi+ Questions, Tamzyn, Little Jase, and Raena are joined by our resident scientist Dr Cat to explore bisexual erasure in the animal kingdom. From bonobos to penguins, lions to Lisa Mitchell’s Animals, we ask: do animals even care about labels, or is that just a human thing? We dive into same-sex behaviour in nature, what it teaches us about diversity, and why anthropomorphising can be both fascinating and misleading. Plus, plenty of laughs, curious tangents, and a few feathery facts along the way.

The big question in this episode is a little different. It’s not a question that bi+ people get asked a lot and it’s not a question bi+ people ask themselves. It’s a question bi+ people might respond with when asked about their identity – Why are you asking?

Raena, Jase, and Dave were joined by JOY presenter CJ, who shared their multi-gender attracted identity journey before we had a chat about how we can respond to questions and comments about our identities.

Doogie shared his journey with settling into his multi-gender attracted identity and we unpacked what bi+ visibility looks like across different environments, how it’s shifted with age or political climate, and what subtle forms of visibility can mean.

In celebration of International Non-Binary People’s Day (14th July), the team had a chat about a misconception that bi+ are sometimes asked about: ‘does being bisexual exclude non-binary people?’.

Our non-binary co-host Little Jase shared an insight into their identity and journey and we talked about ways you can play, test things out, and feel comfortable with your gender expression.

The book and movie that we mentioned during the episode is ‘I Wish You All The Best’ by Mason Deaver.

We also welcomed back previous guest Joey Talison and introduced our new co-host Raena to the Big Bi+ Questions team.

Do you want to be part of the leather community but worried you’ll be excluded because you’re multi-gender attracted? It’s a question that bi+ people can ponder, especially because the leather community can sometimes be perceived as a closed community.
