ADHD, autism and me: Neurodiversity Celebration Week

Last week was Neurodiversity Celebration Week. But due to the lack of a deadline, a plan, my ability to priotise and deliver I missed it. Again. Missed the week to celebrate the lives of us ND folk. Missed the week to write inspiring posts and celebrate our differences. Missed the annual Instagram vs Reality week where we focus on the joy and relegate the reality. Ignore the exhaustion, bluff away the burnout, deny the overload. Continue reading ADHD, autism and me: Neurodiversity Celebration Week

International Women’s Day 1BTN Takeover 2024

Each year March 8th makes its way on my horizon I’m always struck by how far we’ve come at 1BTN radio. What once was a shout-out on the social from the legendary Suze Rosser over 6 years ago for more female, trans women and non-binary folk to get down to Brighton’s finest broadcasting bunker and join their rota of talent has blossomed thanks to the … Continue reading International Women’s Day 1BTN Takeover 2024

Anyway, we will be doing our Wildblood and Queenie thing on 1BTN … Continue reading The Wildblood and Queenie 1BTN Show 210224

You can now judge if we succeeded thanks to the magic of listen again via Mixcloud or Soundcloud. So if you want a sweet session of camp corners, disco classics, Friday bangers, a … Continue reading Listen again: 1BTN 26.01.24

Spirit of Zap Reunion

The Zap Club was always much more to me than just a name above an archway. Its influence on my life far greater than anything this wide-eyed queer suede head could have imagined back in 1990 when I first made my way to its famous if filthy Brighton dancefloor. The sea salt ingrained in the crumbling arches was as fundamental to my life as a … Continue reading Spirit of Zap Reunion

ADHD, Autism and me: waiting

First, it was the lights. Then the extractor fan, then the builders. Then the lights. Oh, the lights. My brain bickers as the lights flicker. Flicker, flicker, flicker. Waiting, waiting, waiting. 2, 4, 7, 12, 20 minutes late. The time passing by, ticking as loud in my head as the fan in the ceiling. Overloaded and over here as I wait my turn. Wait, wait, … Continue reading ADHD, Autism and me: waiting
