This week on Downtown Hangout, we dive straight into the deep stuff — like whether it’s appropriate to wear Adidas to a lesbian wedding (spoiler: yes). Cath talks about the poem she wrote for said wedding — it's giving Jane Austen in Air Max. tell us if you want Cath to read it in the next episode.

We also time-travel back to 90s centre courts as Cath digs out her prized tennis autograph collection — Steffi, Boris, all the legends. Expect questionable fashion choices, heartfelt memories, and just the right amount of side-eye.

Topics include:

– Trainers at weddings: style crime or lesbian rite of passage?

– Old-school romance: Cath’s wedding poem reveal

– 90s tennis icons and retro fandom

– A sprinkle of nostalgia, comedy, and sporty gay chaos

In the latest episode of Downtown Hangout, two seasoned dykes shoot the breeze over chips, gravy, and the queer crisis of finding anywhere decent to go (for older woman). Cath gets into mudlarking on the Thames (spoiler: it’s less glamorous than it sounds), and we wonder—where exactly are the lesbian spaces once you hit midlife and don’t fancy TikTok or techno?

From council flat cuisine to unfiltered nostalgia, this is community radio vibes with no filter, no sponsors (YET!!) , and no apologies.

“We’ve aged out of nightlife and into numb knees—so we’re making our own scene.”

In this episode, we dive into the vibrant world of food, drink, and community at Ken’s Wine Bar, nestled in the heart of Exmouth Market. Join us as Cath shares her recommendations on the latest must-visit pubs and new books that are stirring up excitement.

We also explore Amandaland tv show , an impressive LGBT+ streaming network, and chat about its unique content that’s capturing the queer community’s attention.

Plus, we take on an intriguing new issue: the loudness of cinema music and café sounds—is this a Gen Z vs Gen X dilemma, or something that everyone’s noticing? Tune in as we unpack this noisy new trend.

Join us for lively banter, pub recommendations, literary gems, a dash of queer culture, and a bit of generational reflection. You won’t want to miss it!
