About This Podcast
Your Southern Lesbian is a podcast hosted by Ashley Hydrick, a Gen-X lesbian storyteller from the American South currently broadcasting from London.
With humor, heart, and honesty, Ashley explores lesbian dating, queer community, and the realities of midlife love — from navigating relationships and finding confidence again to celebrating the culture, history, and everyday stories that connect us.
Whether you’re single, partnered, or just curious about the lives of queer women, this show offers laughter, reflection, and real talk about what it means to thrive as a lesbian today. Also available on YouTube!
