🎙️ What’s This Episode About?
Noel Hughes is a third-year Veterinary Science student and the president of the University of Liverpool’s Queer Vet Society, proudly flying the flag for queer visibility in a field that’s not always known for it.
Noel joins John to talk about what it’s like moving to a big city as a young queer person, navigating uni life, and finding community in unexpected places (like the vet school corridors). They chat about queerness in science, the power of student societies, and why representation matters, even in wellies and a lab coat.
Plus, there’s a quiz you didn’t know you needed: is it a parasite… or a dinosaur? Noel puts John’s scientific knowledge (and ability to annunciate) to the test.
It’s smart, sincere, and full of student survival energy - proof that queerness belongs in every room, lecture hall, and species classification.
