Podcast Overview

The one-stop shop for discussion on all things that interest me; a sober queer person from the UK. In each episode, I will 'Say Something Sober' about the chosen topic. Topics will include (but not limited to) old films, new films, music, non-fiction TV shows, Survivor, Drag Race, etc. However, I'll talk about it as a sober person, occasionally using my sobriety as a lens and/or relating it to my journey. Though there are oodles of sobriety guides, I feel there is a lack of easy-watching/easy-listening, pop-culture content that comes from a sober view and with sobriety in mind. <3

Straight Jacket: Escape - Saying Something Sober (#7B)

<p>Major Trigger Warning!</p> <p>In this episode, I go through and summarise the second section of Matthew Todd&#39;s book &#39;Straight Jacket: Overcoming Society&#39;s Legacy of Gay Shame&#39;. The second section is entitled Escape and consists of 8 Chapters, which I go through in sequence.</p> <p>These chapters cover a lot of tough topics and tackles some dense subject matter. Throughout, I relate my experience to what it is discussing and give my own interpretations and opinions on what is being discussed.</p> <p>As such, with such dense subject matter, this episode is a long one and I expect the next will be too. Another episode is to come from this three-parter which will cover the last section: Rescue.</p> <p>I found this section of the book genuinely difficult to read at times because it is so thorough in its approach and layout of these issues. Regardless, I enjoyed it and found it&#39;s logical approach very refreshing. Hopefully, that comes across in this episode. Thanks for listening! :)</p>

Poor Things - Saying Something Sober (#8)

<p>Poor Things (2024) directed by Yorgos Lanthimos, starring Emma Stone, Mark Ruffalo &amp; Willam Dafoe.</p> <p>In this episode, I discuss this film and the themes that it explores. The film won multiple Oscars and many for the World that it created - a breathtaking marvel.</p> <p>I talk about the character arc of the protagonist, Bella Baxter, and her coming to womanhood. However, I also discuss how I related to the film as a sober person and as a more feminine gay man.</p> <p>Spoiler alert for this episode as I talk about the film in quite a lot of detail. I would recommend watching the film before listening. </p> <p>Enjoy! Thanks for listening!</p>
