Lost Spaces: Memories from Gay Bars, Lesbian Clubs, and LGBTQ+ Parties

Hello! I have a wee favour to ask of you....

I'm at a bit of a strange time in the life of Lost Spaces, and lately I've been thinking about what my next move is.

So, I'd really if you could complete this survey - https://forms.gle/5w5k9iVXyUieqZ4SA - to help me understand what works, what doesn't work, and how I can make the show better.

The survey shouldn't take more than 10 minutes to complete (unless you have a lot to say in the free-text questions!), and, if you complete it, I'll be your best friend forever!

Finally, thank you so much for welcoming me in to your ears every week. The show has been such a gift, and I've learnt so much in the two and a bit years I've been doing it.

"I Just Wanted Gay, Gay, Gay, Gay, Gay" - with Mark Perez from Pink Milk Podcast

1 Recommendations

This thing about fancying straight people... like, I don't get it... is it because they're unobtainable? Is it because we're socialised in a heteronormative society that conditions us to see more value in straightness? Is it because we just really hate ourselves?

I don't know... But, luckily I have recovering straight-luster-afterer Mark Perez, co-host of the Star Wars appreciating Pink Milk podcast, to help fill me in.

We talk all about Club St. John, a bar in San Jose, California, that Mark started going to in the early 90s. Expect to hear about trashy 80s soap operas, how exhausting it is to pretend to be someone you're not, and those pesky straight people...

Do you have any memories of Club St John, or clubbing from your own queer scene that you want to share? Well, if you have please get in touch - I want to create the biggest online record of people's memories and stories - go to www.lostspacespodcast.com and find the section 'Share a Lost Space' and tell me what you got up to! Bonus points for embarrassing photos!

"Gay Porn And Lube And Poppers And Accoutrements" - with Glenn Gaylord

The golden age of cruising... No one has quite pinpointed the exact years of this magical era, but the 70s were definitely a part of it. It was post-Stonewall, so there was a new kind of hope and enthusiasm, and it was pre-AIDs and HIV, which meant there was less shame attached to sex.

And, it was at the tail end of the 70s that this week's guest, the award winning filmmaker Glenn Gaylord first moved to LA from Ohio. At this point he was too young to go to the clubs, but too horny to stay home, and so he found himself gravitating towards the gay bookshop Drake's. There was tonnes of cruising that happened inside Drake's, but there was also a LOT that happened on the streets surrounding the business... Like, a lot a lot... like, hard to believe how much sex was happening.

But, don't take my word for it! Let's hear from Glenn.
