The Log Books

Introducing: Call Me Mother

News! We’re making season three of The Log Books because we’ve received a grant from the National Lottery Heritage Fund.  While you wait, here’s an episode of Call Me Mother, another podcast, featuring an interview with Sandra Caldwell, a 67-year-old actor who was forced to hide part of herself for 40 years. We loved hearing Sandra tell her story to Shon Faye, with such warmth and wisdom, and we think you will too.  We’ll be back with the third season of The Log Books later in 2021... See you soon.Support this show <a href="http://supporter.acast.com/thelogbooks" rel="payment" target="_blank">http://supporter.acast.com/thelogbooks</a>. Hosted on Acast.

**Best New Podcast (Gold) at the British Podcast Awards 2020** What if you could glimpse into LGBTQIA+ life from decades ago? Since 1974 volunteers at Switchboard, the LGBT+ helpline, have written notes in the charity's log books. Hosts Tash Walker and Adam Zmith are re-opening these pages today, to explore untold stories from Britain’s queer history. Each episode explores a different theme from LGBTQIA+ life through log book entries, dozens of voices sharing their own memories, and conversations about being queer today. <a href="https://www.thelogbooks.org/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.thelogbooks.org</a>Support this show <a href="http://supporter.acast.com/thelogbooks" rel="payment" target="_blank">http://supporter.acast.com/thelogbooks</a>.
