First we cross to New York to meet Matt Nadel, the documentary filmmaker behind Cashing Out, an Oscar shortlisted short documentary produced by The New Yorker. The film uncovers a little known and unsettling chapter of queer history during the AIDS crisis, when investors began buying life insurance policies from dying gay men, turning tragedy into a financial market. It is a powerful and complex story about capitalism, mortality and a moment in LGBTQ history that is often overlooked.

Then we head to the BOYS! BOYS! BOYS! Gallery Café to meet Lee Knight. His short film A Friend of Dorothy earned an Academy Award nomination for Best Live Action Short. The film stars two beloved queer icons, Miriam Margolyes and Stephen Fry, and Lee joins us in front of a live audience to talk about the remarkable journey from writing the script to finding himself in the Oscars race.

Tony joins us for a revealing conversation at our BOYS! BOYS! BOYS! Gallery Café in London to share his stories from DJing at the wedding of Brooklyn Beckham, reflecting on the ups and downs of his long friendship with Boy George, and looking back at his early days brushing shoulders with the New York art world with Keith Haring & Andy Warhol, including a memorable detail about what Warhol actually smelled like.

The conversation moves between funny, shocking and unexpectedly tender. Tony speaks openly about addiction, recovery and rebuilding his life. Now more than twenty years sober and happily married, he looks back on the chaos with honesty and perspective.

Carl represents a new generation of progressive politician: culturally fluent, visibly present, and entirely at ease in queer spaces. He’s as comfortable sharing the occasional gym selfie and taking the attention that follows as he is being clear and values-led on trans rights, European Union membership, and civil liberties. Often to the left of his own party, Carl has joked that at Liberal Democrats conference it can feel like 80% of the room is LGBTQ+, and he’s clear that queer members and voters are central to the party’s progressive energy.

The Liberal Democrats are the party that delivered equal marriage and the party still reckoning with the cost of the 2010 coalition. Yet in a landscape dominated by caution and culture wars, they remain one of the few national parties openly pro-EU and committed to individual rights.

During a week of TV appearances in London, Carl joined Graeme Smith — equally Liverpudlian, equally direct — in front of a sell-out crowd at the BOYS! BOYS! BOYS! Gallery Café in London. Over a drink, in a queer space, he answered tough questions about trust after 2010, immigration, the arts, trans rights, Trump, and whether Westminster is next.

Recorded during one of our MEETS at our BOYS! BOYS! BOYS! Gallery Café London, this episode traces Tyler’s path through a series of worlds that don’t often get connected. He began as a ballet dancer in New York, before moving through the fashion world, including as fashion editor of Dazed & Confused and AnOther magazines, before stepping away from the industry to build a photographic practice rooted in intimacy and lived experience.

Tyler is known for work that resists spectacle. His photographs focus on queer bodies as presence rather than performance, shaped by memory, vulnerability, and the politics of being seen. His undeniably personal and emotionally compelling photographs are shaped by the familiarity he has with his subjects, most of whom are friends and past lovers.

In this conversation, Tyler speaks candidly about being diagnosed HIV positive in the late 2000s, and how photography helped him process this.

Two decades from that show's first broadcast, and this year with Noah's Arc: The Movie, Darryl reflects on the show’s legacy and what it meant to millions who finally saw their own stories represented. He speaks candidly about navigating Hollywood as a gay Black man, how the industry has evolved, and where it still falls short.

We also get personal. Darryl is now a father, and he reflects on how parenthood has transformed his routines, his connection to the LA gay scene, and his own sense of self. What does fatherhood look like when your community, your career, and your identity have been shaped by queerness and visibility?

Finally, we dive into his creative life beyond acting including writing and storytelling.

We begin with Arthur Pita, the South African-born dancer turned award-winning choreographer whose career spans contemporary dance, opera, theatre, film and television. Known for his bold theatricality and emotionally charged storytelling, Arthur speaks with Jorge Gariz about the evolution of his work, from his early training to major international commissions and how queer identity threads itself through both his creative instincts and his process. He reflects on collaboration, risk-taking, and the unapologetically dramatic movement language that has made him one of the most distinctive choreographic voices working today.

Later in the episode, we’re joined by choreographer & director Jonathan Watkins, whose recent adaptation of Christopher Isherwood's A Single Man, starring Edward Watson and with singer John Grant, has been hailed as one of the year’s most inventive crossovers of literature, dance and live music. Jonathan introduces us to his new company Ballet Queer, the UK’s first dedicated LGBTQ+ ballet company, sharing his vision for reshaping the form with stories and bodies that have long existed backstage but rarely at the centre of the stage.

His memoir Pop Scars has been praised for its honesty and dark humour and in this conversation, he reflects on what it really takes to rebuild a life after the spotlight fades.

Finally, we hear from Jordan Cluroe & Russell Whitehead, the creative duo behind 2LG Studio and familiar faces from TV's The Great Interior Design Challenge and Changing Rooms. They discuss their book Making Living Lovely, exploring how design can be bold, emotional and unapologetically queer.

From the early days of the Gay Liberation Front to the radical protests of OutRage!, and now through the Peter Tatchell Foundation, Peter’s work has helped shape the modern queer rights movement across the globe. His activism goes far beyond LGBTQ+ equality - he’s stood up for democracy, justice, and human rights everywhere, often at great personal risk.

Jorge Garriz looks back on Peter’s extraordinary journey: from taking on governments to confronting powerful institutions, challenging prejudice wherever it hides, and staying true to his principles no matter the cost.

First, filmmaker and creative director Sam Shahid joins Graeme to talk about Hidden Master, his acclaimed documentary on photographer George Platt Lynes. Shahid reveals how he discovered Lynes’ daring images of queer life and beauty, the challenges of telling a story once kept in the shadows, and why preserving this history remains so important today.

Later, Graeme is joined by Paul Martineau, curator and author of Queer Lens: A History of Photography at the Getty Museum in Los Angeles. Martineau reflects on the photographers who helped shape modern visual culture and explains why visibility and representation continue to matter in contemporary art.

John talks about lending his unmistakable voice to A Single Man, a new ballet based on the Christopher Isherwood novel, premiering as part of the Manchester International Festival in Manchester, UK. It’s a bold step into the world of dance — bringing his lyrical intensity to a story of grief, identity, and queer love.

Then: conductor Oliver Zeffman, the founder of Classical Pride, a landmark celebration of LGBTQ+ voices in classical music. From stages across the UK to its debut at the Hollywood Bowl, Classical Pride is reshaping who gets to take centre stage — and what pride sounds like in the concert hall.

Host Graeme Smith and editorial director Ghislain Pascal are joined by two standout voices in queer art and publishing: Michele Robecchi, Commissioning Editor at Phaidon, and Argentinian-born NYC-based photographer Sebastian Perinotti, whose latest series The Mirror appears in the brand-new Volume 10 of our magazine.

Together, we explore how queer artists are positioned within the publishing world — and whether it’s time to move past the labels entirely. Michele shares what really gets a book on the shelf, while Sebastian reflects on Latinx visibility in the art world and how lockdown, identity and cultural politics have shaped his work.

As Pride Month unfolds, we ask what the point is this year with corporate sponsors heading for the exits.

We also look at the very public fallout between Musk and Trump — and what their clash of power and ego could mean for queer people, here and around the globe.
