Male Gayz: Breakfast on Pluto-BA026

Summary: IRISH GAY BOY OVERLOAD. On this Very Special Broad Appeal™, Brian and Seán are joined by writer and all-round babe Alan Flanagan to discuss Neil Jordan's BREAKFAST ON PLUTO: glam rock, Irish Catholicism, magic, music, the IRA and gender identity. We follow Cillian Murphy as Patrick "Kitten" Braden on her journey from parochial Ireland in the height of the Troubles to the lights and smog of London as she hopes to find her mother, herself, and a whole variety of episodic adventures. Alan and Seán reflect (at length!) on the motherland, giving you a heavily accented history of post-Good Friday Ireland as well as their own journeys from parochial Ireland to the heady delights of where they are today: a flat in Brixton! With love to Brian, who had to edit all of this. Clips from the film presented according to fair use policy. Podcast Theme: "Pipeline" by CyberSDF (https://soundcloud.com/cybersdf/tracks)
