    Jacob and I are excited to introduce you to the Gay4Nature collective. Based in Canada they work at the intersection of queer identity and climate justice - a unique combination.

    We had a wonderful time talking to the founders Anna Bigland-Pritchard and Alex Chen. We covered a wide range of topics including their new work, Green, of which we hear a preview. Stay to the end to hear a queer version of the coffee cantata! Amazing!

    It was a great pleasure to welcome back Eveshka Ghost to the podcast. She recently released her new film "Broken Eyes" - for which she not only wrote the music but also wrote and directed the film.

    We not only discuss the film but delve into Eveshka's quite unique way of writing and playing music. To be honest, I am in awe of her abilities as a composer and musician and I really have no idea how she does it in the way she does. Take a listen to find out more.

    Jacob and I had a great time interviewing Opera singer and theatre creator Teiya Kasahara. Teiya not only has the most fantastic voice but uses it so creatively to explore the various aspects of gender, sexuality and race all within an often amusing operatic artform. There is little doubt that they are a rising star in the operatic world.

    I know you will enjoy listening to this podcast!
