I want to thank everyone from OUTStaged for joining me on the podcast. We discussed the OUTStaged drama group and their writing workshops beginning today February 23rd at 7pm in Gay Project, South Parish Community Centre, Sawmill St, Ballintemple, Cork. Follow them on Instagram () to keep up to date with their activities. I also want to give thanks to Gay Project for allowing us to record in their community space and for all the great work they do for the Cork Q***r community.

This is the third episode of a series exploring the Q***r inclusive community groups in Cork and I look forward to giving the spotlight to more organisers and participants of these groups for the great work they do for Cork's Q***r community.

If you'd like to know what other Q***r inclusive groups there are, head over to Gay Project and LINC's websites where you can find lists of the various groups and contacts for joining them should they take your fancy.

And as always, thank you for listening!

Hi Gay!

Q***r Tales will be doing a live recording alongside the Cork Pride: Brighter OUTcomes Health Expo on Saturday July 30th in MTU Cork School of Music. 😁

I will co-hosting with at this event where we will also be doing a live recording of Grace's podcast finishing with a podcasting 101 / Q&A to finish off the day. 😍

Grace has previously graced (sorry) us with her wonderful self on Q***r Tales in S1 E8 Shame and Unconscious Bias. As such, we felt an additional guest for the Q***r Tales recording would be great. 😘

So, if there is anyone who is free Saturday July 30th for an hour or so and has a topic they'd like to discuss, a story to tell or just want to come along and have a laugh with us whilst we discuss whatever comes to our q***r minds at the time, please slip into my DM's and I can give you the full details ( ). 🥰

Please share this post with any of your friends that you feel would be interested also. Thank you everyone and we look forward to seeing you at Cork Pride 2022! 🤩

Season 2 episode 1, Finding Happiness is available now on all major podcast platforms including Spotify, Apple and Google Podcasts. 😁

Season 2 kicks off with my guest Cabhán Ó Dúinn () detailing his life and how in the past year he has been able to find happiness through being his authentic self. Cabhán's story is heart breaking at times, but ultimately is a tale of hope and stands as an inspiration to us all as to the joy and happiness to be found when you accept and embrace your authentic self. 😊

Enjoy the episode and welcome to Season 2 of Q***r Tales. ❤️

Please follow, like and share so more people can discover the podcast. Thanks everyone for all of your support to get Season 2 up and running. 😘

Aaaaaaaaaaand we're back. Finally! 😁

Sorry for disappearing. I have no excuse for it. Just sometimes you let life get in the way. 🙄

Anyway... Hoping to get Season 2 up and running. Same as before, looking for volunteers who would like to take part. 😊

Q***r Tales is a safe space for q***r people and our allies to discuss absolutely anything they want without judgement. It's a space to air one's opinions, thoughts and stories through discussion and friendly debate with myself. 💭

If you have any interest in taking part or learning more, please DM this page or email me at q***[email protected]

New / continued episode out now. 😁

This episode is a continuation of my chat with Kate Murphy, David O'Connor and Ciara O'Hanlon.

We jump straight into the topic of sexual performance by discussing my experience with premature ej*******on, the connections between mental health and sexual performance, and overall we just have a good laugh while touching on some very interesting topics. 😊

I hope you enjoy the conclusion to our two part conversation and thank you for listening. ❤️🏳️‍🌈

Episode 10 is available now. This episode is part 1 of my chat with Kate Murphy, David O'Connor and Ciara O'Hanlon. 😋

We discuss the results of a quick little research question we threw to the faceless profiles of Grindr to find out their reasoning for not having a public face picture up. 😊

The results were quite interesting and the graph of the results can be found in my last post. Part two of my chat with these three guests will be out next week. Thanks for listening. 🏳️‍🌈❤️

In preparation for this week's episode, I made this graph of the responses we got from a quick question we threw to the faceless profiles of Grindr. 😁

The O/R percentage in the rainbow pie chart stands for "of respondents" and that's the main percentage we talk in the episode.

The best thing from doing this little segment was getting to see such a lovely, positive side to Grindr in the amount of people who responded and how much effort some people put in to give context to it.

If you have any interest in learning more about the graph and what it was for, check out Episode 10, out tomorrow morning. ❤️🏳️‍🌈
