Shownotes Transcript

Before anything else I need to give a huge apology to this week's guest.

When we were originally arranging to talk I was very strict with him and firmly said that we could only talk about one lost space and not, as he wanted, talk about the entire shifting queer scene in Toronto....

But... well... you can probably guess when happened when we got together to chat. We went ALL over the place (which is a good thing! The chat is A+)!

So, although we originally got together to talk about Toronto's 'The Steady', (which you might remember as I was lucky enough to interview the venue's owner, Keaton Kash last year), the conversation takes in a number of other spaces and nights.

We talk about dates that never end, throwing the perfect bachelorette party, and being so conscientious that you take the time to come out to everyone in your life individually...

Do you have any memories of The Steady, or clubbing from your own scene that you want to share? Well, if you have please get in touch - I want to create the biggest online record of people's memories and stories - go to www.lostspacespodcast.com and find the section 'Share a Lost Space' and tell me what you got up to! Bonus points for embarrassing photos!
