  • “Against Ageism” with Simon(e) van Saarloos

    “Against Ageism” with Simon(e) van Saarloos
    2026/10/05
    Have you ever thought about your age as being assigned at birth? In this episode, Simon(e) van Saarloos and I explore how queer thought might allow us to move beyond preconceptions of age, but also about the manifold and intersectional consequences of ageism. Simon(e) reflects on how trans narratives might work without reliance on linearity and why age is such a powerful category when it comes to agency.

    CW: Around minutes 11 to 13, there is a nongraphic mention of sexual violence.

    Questions you should be able to respond to after listening:
    1. What does Simon(e) mean by ‘change-phobic’?
    2. I really love when Simon(e) explains that “linear time is mapped onto the body and we call that age.” – How could we understand age in other ways? What might a queer approach to age be?
    3. Simon(e) mentions age-segregated institutions. What are examples of these and how does age shape institutions?
    4. How do race and colonialism play into age?
    5. How often do you think about age? Do you perceive age differently in and outside of queer and trans community?

  • “Queering Prehistory” with S. K. Marley

    “Queering Prehistory” with S. K. Marley
    2026/09/21
    We all know that trans people have existed throughout history, but what about before that? S.K. Marley does fascinating research on queerness and transness that predates written history and joins me to speak about what antler headdresses and wooden dolls might teach us about transness. We also discuss how transness, walking and wellbeing are entangled, which landscapes are the most nonbinary, and why ‘prehistory’ is a contested term in itself. Since we’re chatting in a beautiful park in York, this episode has some bonus bird song and squirrel mischief.

    Questions you should be able to respond to after listening:
    1. What does ‘prehistory’ mean?
    2. Why does S.K. speak about being trans and being in nature? What does this have to do with wellbeing?
    3. S.K. speaks about notions of truth in contemporary trans debates and about colonial perspectives in academia. Why is their focus on British prehistory important in both of these contexts?
    4. Why are the antler headdresses S.K. talks about a turning point in their research and their thinking about duality?
    5. Why are bogs trans? What is the most trans or nonbinary landscape you have ever encountered?

  • “Hyperpop and Queer Noise” with C. Jade MacDonald

    “Hyperpop and Queer Noise” with C. Jade MacDonald
    2026/09/07
    What does sound have to do with sexuality? C. Jade MacDonald has some fascinating insights on the queerness of noise, on trans voices in hyperpop, and on sound in literature. Learn about the queer kinship created by remixes and covers in contemporary music, but also about which sound technologies are historically entangled with sexology. My favourite bit: hearing about how Gertrude Stein resonates with SOPHIE.

    Questions you should be able to respond to after listening:
    1. Why might noise be queer?
    2. How is voice usually perceived in music? What might the distortion and non-human quality that hyperpop can lend voices signify in relation to transness?
    3. What does Jade say about remixes and covers? Do you see them as queer kinship?
    4. Why does Jade speak about 100 gecs? What is this example illustrating?
    5. Please listen to at least one musician that you heard about on this episode and think about whether you can hear any ‘alien resonances’.
