Jodie Mitchell
Jodie Mitchell is a comedian, podcaster and drag king, performing as John Travulva with Pecs Drag Kings, founding member of the omni-hilarious queer comedy collective LOL Word Comedy, and one half of the podcast Secret Dinosaur Cult with Sofie Hagen. In this episode, we talk masc shame, internalised butchphobia, homophobia, fatphobia and - on the flip side - consensual, joyful, egalitarian sex. In this quietly-captivating exploration of identity, role play and self expression, Jodie reveals how performing as a drag king to a fanbase of "incredible screaming queers who crave the non-cis-male dick" helped them to take up space, celebrate their masculinity, and fully embrace their sexuality. They are currently busy being a ‘blindingly obvious comedic talent’ (The Skinny) on the following platforms: Twitter - @JodieMitchell_ Instagram - @JodieMitchetc Facebook - @JodieMitchellComedy Support the podcast with a one off donation on https://ko-fi.com/helenduff or to get access to all sorts of extra audio / video content become a regular subscriber on Patreon - https://www.patreon.com/HelenDuff Intro / Outro music by Luisa Gerstein of Deep Throat Choir; musical interludes by Helen Duff, arranged by Paddy Gervers; edited by Daisy Grant; produced by Helen Duff, Lorna Treen and Daisy Grant.

Samantha Holdsworth
Samantha Holdsworth is the Founder and CEO of Clowns Without Borders UK, an international humanitarian charity that delivers joy and play to children living in refugee and displacement camps. As a Facilitator, Clown and Producer, Sam has devised and delivered countless community-based and arts-led projects around the world. She is passionate about the arts as a catalyst for social change. In this episode, we talk about stepping into your power at 40, setting up an international humanitarian charity single handed, creating a safe space for women to play in crisis zones, and navigating orgasms, presence and the impulse to burn all our existing systems of governance down to the ground, in a post-birth body.
