During these exceptional times, I bring to Olivia K. She is an amazing singer and we discuss these exceptional times and she brings her gift of song to the platform with Valerie by Amy Winehouse. The K in Olivia K, Khe-ra, means "Daughter of the Sun," which perfectly describes her joyous outlook on life and fiery disposition. Olivia K has lived in Brooklyn her whole life, except four years uptown at Columbia University. Her iconic voice and original writing can be heard on Netflix's Tales of the City, as well as in commercials, and most unusually, the subways of NYC. As the DIY Funk Queen of East New York, she has led her band Olivia K and the Parkers in opening for Kermit Ruffins, and has her anthem "Native New Yorker" archived in the permanent archives of Brooklyn Academy of Music (BAM).

Hello you gorgeous queers! It is us, your ever-faithful podcast hosts, Olivia and Lucy, and it's July, the summer of LURVE. Or platonic love anyway, as Olivia tells all about life-altering meet-cute with a stranger on a train as well as all the details from our fab weekend at London Pride. We give a deep analysis of that dinner party scene in Netflix's Tales of the City and discuss some of our favourite queer films of old. We discuss the power of positive news and the latest New York magazine- 'An Entire Issue With Nothing About Trump!' Lucy gives her review of 'Crudo by Olivia Laing and Olivia tells all after finishing 'A Queer and Pleasant Danger.'
