Cush is joined by the author of the groundbreaking Tales of the City series, Armistead Maupin.
Armistead reminisces about the night before his first book was published, where Rock Hudson 'knocked his socks off', what it was like living in San Franscico in the 70s, and coming out in 1971.
Amistead shares his secret to long lasting marriage: the importance of always going to bed with an 'I love you' in what he calls a 'not so conventional' marriage.
His Origin stories include memories of his grandmother, how Tales of the City came to fruition, and the moment he set eyes on his now husband for the first time.
