Tough Talks: Podcast Series Exploring Gender, Sexuality and Identity

With the support from Audio Content Fund, we were able to team up with Hit Radio Pride to create Tough Talks, a show where people in the LGBTQ+ community relive and reflect on a tough talk from their past.

In these intimate and revealing chats you’ll hear from them and the person they had the conversation with, covering topics such as gender, sexuality, and identity. Hits Radio Pride is the UK’s first national LGBTQ+ radio station from a major broadcaster.

Here are the first three episodes of Tough Talks below – listen to all episodes at planetradio.co.uk .

Episode 2: Alfie & Rachael
