On my mental soundtrack for Pride Month: Jimmy Somerville's gorgeous falsetto ringing out in protest against queerphobia, set to a video that broadens the protest to call out 1980s Thatcherist economic oppression. Both of which messages, sadly, apply to current events in the US.

Episode sixty is up now! Today's song is Smalltown Boy by Bronski Beat.
