About This Podcast

When it comes to uncovering Australia's queer history, there's not a lot out there. What is preserved is often told through a colonial and heteronormative lens that sidelines queer, First Nations, and migrant voices. While more stories are finally being shared, many acts of resistance and resilience remain untold. Hosted by Farz Edraki and featuring a bold line-up of LGBTQ+ trailblazers, 'Queer Renegades' digs into *some* of Australia’s queer history - spotlighting the rebels, risk-takers, and rule-breakers who shaped the queer resistance and continue to change culture along the way.
