BIG IRISH QUEERS IN A LITTLE IRISH TOWN
From rural County Fermanagh comes a comedy podcast where queer life, Irish culture, pop culture, films, music, gossip, and small-town realities collide. This bold and hilarious pod aims to normalise queer conversations in rural Irish towns, creating space for honest chat, shared experiences, and plenty of laughs along the way.
Join Billie Atkinson every fortnight to witness special guests, hot takes, sapphic chaos, oversharing, cultural commentary, and stories that prove you don’t have to live in a city to live loudly.
Produced by Sons Delirium.
Strong language, mature themes, and unapologetic behaviour. 16+.
