From Heated Rivalry to Hard Borders

OUTCAST WORLD

Monday, 19 January 2026 - 29 minutes

YOUR BI WEEKLY DOSE OF QUEER POLITICS, SEX AND CULTUREOn today’s episode, Graeme and Topher are joined at the start by Nick Charles — Trinidad-born Loud Brown Gays podcaster, music producer, and part of the original Outcast team — for an episode that opens on an awkward realisation: Graeme’s just seen a video on X of someone being bummed, and slowly works out the arse belongs to the man now sitting next to him.From there, the conversation moves into Heated Rivalry — why it’s landing with gay men right now, and what it gets right about desire, masculinity and intimacy without sanding things down.Politics follows. Nick talks about growing up in Trinidad, living next door to Venezuela, and having Venezuelan family, and why Trump’s renewed interest in the Caribbean feels unsettling from that position. Watching the scale and cruelty of ICE deportations in the US sharpens the concern.The episode closes back in the UK, asking whether Reform are serious about their promises — and what a real deportation drive would actually mean.P;---THIS IS OUTCAST WORLD ---Like and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts and please leave a review.
