The Princess Podcast

Ep. 3: Octopussy

We cross the high seas back in time with Tim Clarke, Curator of Japanese Collections at the British Museum 1988-2019. Tim takes us on a kinky gender-defying journey into C18th Japanese sex-art Shunga. ShayShay tells the queer story from the Zhou Dynasty that's behind the name of their gender-diverse Pan Asian performance collective, Bitten Peach. And our very own Princess archivist and trans punk elder Serge Rizzler gets all fetishy over some Octopussy by Hokusai.

Ep. 2: Sex Work

Let’s talk about Sex Work, from the queer C18th to today. E-J and Zed get pink in the cheeks with Kayte McSweeney from the British Museum. Frida unpacks how she turned missing C18th Indian concubine history into a performance in the pub. Our very own trans curator Zorian Clayton brings us some good-sex porno facts. And sex worker activist Samantha Sun and radical trans and queer author Juno Roche let rip about pleasure, sex workers and queer body autonomy.

Ep.1: Molly Houses and Screaming Lesbian Gin

Join the Duckie gang for a stroll through the gin soaked streets of queer Georgian London. Hosted by the letters E-J & Zed, this 4 part LGBTIQA+ history club is a 300-year old queer survival guide. In our first episode, we time-travel back to the long queer 18th century where we discover Neil Bartlett's always been a molly at heart and Brighton Gin's co-founder, Kathy Caton, drinks it neat like a screaming lesbian from the days of yore.
