This week on OUTCAST WORLD, Graeme and newly crowned Sexual Freedom Awards Writer of the Year Topher Taylor are talking about how Trump's budget cuts in the US have impacts for queer people everywhere.
We’re joined by journalist and author Daniel Harding, whose new book Letters to My Younger Queer Self is already being called essential reading. Together, we ask: what would you say to your younger queer self if you had the chance?
Plus:
💬 Topher on winning big whilst being queer — and why it matters.
💬 Daniel Harding on shame, survival, and queer healing.
💬 Graeme admits the one thing teen him would never believe.
