Description

Standing Out is a home for the queer community's stories — the ones we don't always get to hear.

It's for anyone who's ever felt lonely, left out, or like everyone else had a map to life that they never got handed. So many of us end up sticking to people just like ourselves because it feels safe — and without realising it, barely get to know anyone outside that circle. This show was born from wanting something different: a space that's open to more than just one kind of story.

Each episode is one honest conversation, built around three questions: what does authenticity actually mean to this person, how have they built a life on their own terms in a world that wasn't designed with them in mind, and what would they want a younger queer person to know that they wish they'd known sooner.

Guests come from all over — film, sport, activism, business, and beyond — because there's an infinite number of ways to be queer, and no single story covers it. No polish, no pretending everyone's fine. Just curiosity, respect, and people talking honestly about what it costs and what it gives back to live as yourself. New episodes weekly.
