#QueerAF | queer inspiring LGBT + stories
Summary: Listen for free every week, as a different student, graduate or LGBT+ producer tells their most #QueerAF story on the podcast by National Student Pride. Hosted by Jamie Wareham, we commission young LGBT+ producers to tell their own stories so long as they are beyond the binary, sex-positive, challenge mental health, sexuality and identity taboos – or have unicorns spewing rainbows everywhere. Download and take the best UK lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans and queer story podcast with you, as recommended by Cosmopolitan, Gay Star News, Attitude Magazine, Spotify Digital Pride collection and Apple Podcast's Pride collection. The show was nominated for a British Podcast Award 2019. We're back in 2020 with Season 4, with more LGBT+ reporters than ever.#QueerAF keeps the pride of conversation – that is National Student Pride, an event for LGBT+ students and graduates – a discussion that carries on all year round. We have the UK's biggest free LGBT+ job fair powered by Pride.Careers, taboo challenging and topical panel discussions, live recordings of the show and tantalising performances.

Barely a week to go to National Student Pride, and Pippa's story explains how she went from identifying as a lesbian – to realizing she was a queer, non-binary demi girl. She now wants to be the role model, she always wished she had. Her coming out is inspiring, and you have to hear how it ends. Big thanks this week to Gendered Intelligence, the trans youth charity for speaking to us too. Find help and support from them here: http://genderedintelligence.co.uk/ Today's show is unashamedly inspired by My Genderation's #ThisIsWhatNonBinaryLooksLike campaign. We're teamed up with them for our #BeyondTheBinary panel at National Student Pride this year. https://www.youtube.com/user/MyGenderation With thanks to this week's production from Radio graduate Cassie Galpin.
