From Gay to Ze returns for a special one off episode to celebrate the release of the acclaimed BBC drama, Lost Boys and Fairies. Lotte and Stu are joined on the podcast by one of its stars, Fra Fee, and creator and writer, Daf James. The series, which premiered on the BBC this year, and is now available on iPlayer, is the tender, glittering story of Gabriel, his partner Andy and their journey to adoption. Lotte and Stu discuss the nuances involved with creating a drama series like this one and the many different queer themes involved.

From Gay to Ze’s series of summer travel specials continue with the second of our three episodes dedicated to queer holidays. In this episode Lotte and Stu are reporting from their hotel room at the Martinhal Resort in Sagres, Portugal. The duo are there to test out the family facilities, without their kids! Lotte and Stu discuss the highs and lows of holidaying as a queer family and also chat to Lotte’s wife, Jenny Southan, a travel journalist and CEO of Globetrender, about ways holiday providers can better cater to queer families.

Woof Woof! We are kicking off our series of From Gay to Ze travel specials by speaking to the gorgeous human being, TV vet, author and presenter Dr. James Greenwood. James is a passionate advocate for the veterinary profession, animal welfare, conservation, mental health awareness and for LGBTQ equality. He speaks to Lotte and Stu about his experience of travelling and how he plans to navigate travelling as a new dad, as James and his partner Mark had their first son via surrogacy this May. This episode was made possible with support from our sponsor YOTEL (also find them on Instagram here).

Stu and Lotte are back with one final episode of From Gay to Ze: I Kissed a Boy with the undoubted winners of the show, Ollie and Dan. We caught up with the one and only couple from the Masseria to stand the test of time. The boys tell Stu and Lotte how they’ve dealt with the pressure of now being a public couple, dealing with potential jealously from the other boys and just how far DID they go in the Masseria? And is there a “Dolly” reality show on its way? Time to spill the tea one final time…

Lotte and Stu wrap up their special series celebrating the BBC show I Kissed a Boy with their thoughts on the final two episodes and the series as a whole. They also discuss their ‘parents night out’ at the taping of the reunion and meeting Dannii and the boys.

Trigger warning: This episode does contain a brief mention and discussion on suicide.

Mikey, from I Kissed a Boy, joins Lotte and Stu on From Gay to Ze to spill the tea on his time on the show. He discusses being “the” OG drama on the show, let’s us know who else caught his eye in the masseria and how important it was for him to share his testicular cancer story on the show.

In another I Kissed a Boy special edition of From Gay to Ze, Lotte and Stu catch up with Joseph about his time in the masseria. Joseph talks about the reasons he wanted to go on the show including wanting to ensure representation on screen. He also talks to Lotte and Stu about his own coming out experience.

Spoiler Alert… From Gay to Ze is back in your ears with our version of events from Episodes 5 and 6 of the BBC LGBTQ+ dating show, I Kissed a Boy. This week Stu and Lotte are joined by fellow super fan Josh Smith for a good old gossip session about the hit show as it reaches its penultimate episodes… expect chat on the boys that left, the boys that entered and what might be next in store for the hot boys of the masseria.
