The trailer you heard at the end of this episode is for Travelling Light, a queer and cosy science fantasy podcast about finding common ground and celebrating difference. It's a brilliant show with beautiful art, and I can't recommend it highly enough (for more reasons than just Óli I'm sure, although they're a big portion of it (oh Óli, my beloved)). You can visit the show's website here, and you can also join me in following its creator HR Owen on Tumblr and Bluesky.
