In this episode, I sit with Comedian and Podcaster, Chris Demos (he/him).
We discuss the upcoming run for Chris at the Melbourne International Comedy Festival — Actually Kinda Hot, Cyclone Alfred’s Old Queen status, using the term Queer as a way to say you’re part of something bigger, having the courage to come out when you never thought you would, the power you have to set boundaries when you come out, a dating app being an unexpected way to help young gay men, and how aniseed jelly beans are the worst!
