| 1/27/26 | Mardi Pieronek, trans elder and content creator | Over 600,000 queers and non-queers alike follow content creator and activist Mardi P for her gripping testimonials on a long, and fabulous, life lived trans. Born to a Polish-Canadian Catholic family, Mardi escaped across the Rockies in the 1970s to the bright lights of Calgary and Vancouver, where she began shaping her life as a trans woman. Decades later and outraged by the tsunami of misinformation online regarding trans people, Mardi decided to pick up her phone and start sharing her test... | 59m 29s | ||||||
| 1/20/26 | Mitch Brown, former AFL player | Mitch Brown is an advocate, father, and a former AFL player. Last August, Mitch came out publicly as bisexual in an interview with The Daily Aus, sparking a tsunami of conversations in Australia around queerness and masculinity in sport.

| 6/30/25 | John Benjamin Hickey, actor and director | Tony Award-winning actor and director John Benjamin Hickey joins me on Tracks of Our Queers. From his breakout role in Terrence McNally's Love! Valour! Compassion! to his devastating turn in Larry Kramer's The Normal Heart, John has been at the heart of some of theatre's most important queer work. Far from being typecast, John has appeared in hundreds of roles across TV, film, and theatre (I loved him in The Big C, and of course, the dad in Pitch Perfect). Outside of acting and directing, Joh... | 58m 19s | ||||||

| 2/24/25 | Chloe Petts, comedian | Chloe Petts is a *very* funny comedian from the UK. Her work is littered with brilliant examples of what I think of as 'soft' activism – she skilfully endears audiences with her warmth, before a one-two punch reminder of the foolishness of homo- and transphobia. Chloe is touring the UK and Australia throughout 2025, and you can find her tour dates here. We discuss music by Tina Turner, Haim, and Kasabian (!). Follow Chloe online. The other bits: Tracks of Our Queers is recorded an... | 46m 11s | ||||||
| 2/17/25 | Margaret Cho, entertainer | Margaret Cho. Period. A groundbreaking comedian, actor, musician, and advocate, Margaret Cho has been smashing barriers and ceilings in entertainment since the early 1990s. She's a massive queero of mine, and I was quite honestly shook to be on a Zoom with the Notorious C.H.O. herself. Margaret just released her third studio album, Lucky Gift, including punk pop girl group bangers, musings on opioid addiction, and a beautiful tribute to her mentor, Robin Williams. We discuss music by Erasure,... | 44m 40s | ||||||

| 10/29/24 | Christy DeGallerie, writer | Christy DeGallerie is a writer and interdisciplinary artist from New York. Her contribution to the Modern Love column in the New York Times took my breath away a year ago, in which she wrote about her decision to come out to her mother on the day of her deportation. It's a moving, funny, sharp dissertation on migration, queerness, and gardening, and I insist you give it a read. Christy is also an enormous music fan, and made this interview exceptionally easy by showing up with some fabulou... | 50m 03s | ||||||
| 10/22/24 | Benjamin Law, writer and broadcaster | Benjamin Law is a writer, broadcaster, television creator and producer, and refined homosexual about town in Sydney.
