QueerAF is the award-winning (more than a) podcast with beyond-the-binary stories about queerness, history, sexuality, gender and identity from the UK's only press-regulated not-for-profit LGBTQIA+ publisher with a new episode out every Monday this Pride season.
QueerAF helps you understand the LGBTQIA+ world and support queer creatives to change the media. All our shows are created by a different budding LGBTQIA+ audio producer who we mentor and support to create an inspiring queer story. As well as a mix of mini-documentaries and limited series, look out for our live podcast specials, with celebrities, activists and inspiring speakers.
The podcast, with its roots and first four seasons in collaboration with National Student Pride, and later seasons with Trans+ History Week gives young queer creatives a crucial leg up on the career ladder. For many, it is their first paid audio commission. Our alumni have gone on to work at some of the UK's biggest media outlets including the BBC, PinkNews and Gaydio.

This week we’re sharing the conversation we recorded at the Trans+ History Week community event 2025, with the theme: How do we tell our history,
so we can all learn from it?
It might have taken place back in May but, well lets face it even before this year’s Trans+ History Week, which is held in the first full week in May each year - the UK’s Supreme Court decision on the definition of a woman in the Equality Act has changed the context, urgency and climate for Trans+ and queer rights.
The recording followed on directly from the first episode of the season, our live podcast recording with guest host Anthony Lexa from Sex Education and special guest Abigail Thorn, of Philosophy Tube and Game of Thrones fame.
To celebrate the second year of creatives we’ve mentored for Trans+ History Week, we brought together one of last years, podcasters Alex Parnham Cope, one of this year’s history writers Nisreen Fox, and the legal researcher who was the only Trans+ journalist commissioned in the UK media to write about the Supreme Court ruling itself during the week, Jess O'Thomson: And yes, that was by us - here on QueerAF. The discussion is hosted by Jamie Wareham.
So let's tuck in, and uncover how we can use history, and the lessons from our past, to march forward, and win the fight ahead.
