Sometimes on this show we talk about spaces that my guest went to religiously, and they have stories from years of partying and socialising.

And sometimes, like with this episode, we go to spaces that my guest only went to once. Despite that, it was still hugely influential to them.

And, so, although we don't know the name of this week's bar, or exactly what town it was in, we DO know that it was in Arizona, that it was a country bar, and that it had a huge impact on my guest, David F M Vaughn from the queer parenting podcast Gaytriarchs.

We talk all about the overlap between queerness and southernness, the beauty of an unpretentious bar, and the fear of going to queer spaces on your own (and being judged horribly!).

Do you have any inkling of what this week's mystery bar could be, 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!
