    Kevin Silvester is a Naarm-based singer-songwriter who describes himself as "somewhere between a rock star and a pop star" (and a "demon twink", for what it's worth). He joins Liam to talk about good and bad therapy, getting an ADHD diagnosis, and what it's like being a queer artist in the Australian rock scene.

    2: The social cure with Robert Grigor

    We're often guilty of looking at the vulnerabilities of LGBTQ+ people when it comes to mental health. This episode celebrates the strengths that come with being LGBTQ+, looking at our queer and trans identities as a cure rather than a curse. My guest is provisional psychologist Robert Grigor, and we discuss his research on this topic, as well as how he celebrates his own queer identity. (Full disclosure: I was Robert's research supervisor, and we published a paper together, which you can read below.)
