Are You Listening?: The Oxfordshire Youth Podcast

In the second episode of the LGBTQ+ miniseries, Ben (They/Them) was joined by Darius (He/Him) to host a brilliant array of guests to talk about queer representation in the media. Bethia (She/Her), Pheobe (She/Her), and Emily (She/Her) discussed queerbaiting, the progression of queer representation, and the stereotypes of gender in media, advertising, and fashion.

They even dived into how queer people misrepresented can reinforce internalised homophobia.

We hope that this episode and this miniseries will help all young people to get a deeper understanding and empathy for all LGBTQ+ youth.

#AreYouListening?

In the first episode of our LGBTQ+ miniseries, Ben (They/Them) and Sam (He/Him) talk to Megan (She/Her), Molly (She/Her), and KJ (Ze/They) about their coming out experiences and share any tips and tricks they might have picked up along the way. 

They dived into some issues faced by those people coming out and explored some interesting concepts about gender and identity. 

We hope that this episode and this miniseries will help all young people to get a deeper understanding and empathy for all LGBTQ+ youth.

#AreYouListening?

It seems like forever since we actually did the Youth Awards but we thought that it was about time to reflect on this amazing event. Teya joined Darius to host this episode talking about all of the amazing things that happened along the long journey to the Youth Awards. They were joined by the rest of the Youth Awards planning committee, Sam, Christian and Jenny. This reflection will give you a deeper insight into what it takes to put on an event like this. We even give some tips for anyone who wants to get involved in planning the next Youth Awards event.

First episode of 2021!

2021 is finally here so it is time for our first episode and we had a lot to say. Sam and Darius sat down with the rest of the Podcast committee, Jenny, Christian and Ben (We missed you Teya) to discuss exactly how we were feeling about everything. When we recorded this episode, we were all coming to terms with the inevitable third lockdown. It affected us all so differently, tune into to listen to all of our thoughts that you may be able to relate to.

This is the final episode of the Black Lives Matter Miniseries, so we thought that it would be a good point of time to reflect on how insightful this podcast series has been. In this episode, you will hear some of our favourite quotes from the wonderful guests who joined us, and Darius speaks very honestly about how this Miniseries has affected him.
