Lost Spaces: Memories from Gay Bars, Lesbian Clubs, and LGBTQ+ Parties

Bath Tap, Bath, England, UK (with Darryl W. Bullock)

Darryl W. Bullock is the author behind books such as 'David Bowie Made Me Gay: 100 Years of LGBT Music' and 'Florence Foster Jenkins:The Life of the World's Worst Opera Singer'. 
We met up in a previous episode to discuss Crackers in Gloucester, and throughout the interview Darryl kept bringing up Bath Tap, a bar that he would go on to frequent when he became a mature age student and moved to Bath in the mid-90s. 
So... I invited him back to reminisce about life in his grotty, miserable bedsit, freaky sex with a fantasist, and enormous bags of free bacon....

How do queer spaces help to shape people's lives? 

Why are they so important to the LGBTQ+ community?

What is the impact of losing these spaces?

Lost Spaces explores these questions (and more!) through conversations with members of the LGBT community. 

Each week host K Anderson sits down with a different guest to discuss a space from their past, why it was important to them, and how it helped shape who they are. 

Expect conversations about coming out, going out, and getting down. 

And snogging strangers on sweaty dancefloors. We can't talk about gay history without that coming up.
