LGBT FC

A UK Vacay

Daisy and Luke Season 1 Episode 48

Bryant and Luke are back on the road and bring you this special first episode of 2024 from the United Kingdom. What's more fun than going to an English football match? How about going to four of them in four days? Including Crystal Palace, Tottenham, West Ham, and Wrexham. And for this episode we have interviews with three supporters about their love of their respective sides.

But first, at 12' the Day in Gay starts with some sad news of the recent passing of a gay sportscaster. Then there's a story from the NHL and a team's efforts to flout the league's ridiculous rules, the possibility of a group of footballers coming out later this year, and a well-earned retirement.

Then at 17'30", Josh Dodd (@jsl_1994 on Insta and @JSL1994 on Twitter), supporter of West Ham United and member of the Pride of Irons, shares what it has been like coming out in 2023. At 29'30", Sophie Thorpe (@SophieHThorpe on Insta and @SophieThorpe on Twitter), supporter of Tottenham Hotspurs and member of the Proud Lilywhites, tells how a single moment in her childhood changed things forever. And at 43'30", Steve Lloyd (@DragonChatWxmFC on Twitter), supporter of Wrexham AFC and founder of the Proud Dragons, reflects on a lifetime love of his home side, how the recent takeover has changed things, and the work that still remains to be done.

Happy New Year, LGBT FC family! We are delighted to be with you to kick off 2024 and hope you enjoy this episode as much as we did bringing it to you. Have a gay day!
