Call Me Mother

A series of conversations with LGBTQ+ luminaries designed to foster a sense of community across generational lines.

8x 30min, by Novel, first aired 7th March 2021

Each episode will tell the fascinating story of a remarkable, unsung queer pioneer, giving younger listeners in particular a tangible sense of the history and richness of queer culture.

Coronavirus restrictions have isolated many of us, and with the physical aspects of the queer scene set to remain shuttered for the foreseeable future, many LGBTQ+ people are untethered from the community that is a vital part of their identity.

Each episode will also invite candid observations about the queer experience and fascinating anecdotes about how the LGBTQ+ community has evolved over the decades.
