The BOYS! BOYS! BOYS! Podcast

Ben Pentreath OBE is an English architectural and interior designer, described by Country Life as one of the best country-house architects in Britain.

Recorded live at our BOYS! BOYS! BOYS! Gallery Café in London, Ben joins Alistair James to discuss colour, beauty and his belief that the best homes and buildings should evolve over time.

He also reflects on working closely with King Charles, his lifelong love of Scotland, and the chance discovery that led him and his husband Charlie to leave Dorset for a remarkable new life on Orkney - an experience many listeners will know from his Financial Times column.

This week’s BOYS! BOYS! BOYS! podcast looks at queer publishing through fiction, photography & independent print.

Matt Cain is interviewed by Graeme Smith in front of an audience at a BOYS! BOYS! BOYS! MEETS event at our gallery in London, discussing his career, the rejection he faced from mainstream publishers, the launch of Pansy Books and his new novel, The Castle of Stories.

Alistair James talks to Adrian Lourie, the photographer and publisher behind the cult gay zine MEAT, and to German author Kai Spellmeier about his debut English-language novel, Boy Friends.

BOYS! BOYS! BOYS! MEETS continues again soon at our gallery in Fitzrovia, London. Upcoming guests, dates and tickets are available on boysboysboys.org.

For more than 50 years, William Yang has documented Australia's queer community through his camera, creating one of the country's most important social archives.

Although his name may not be familiar to everyone, his photographs have captured generations of queer life, from the liberation movement of the 1970s, through the AIDS crisis, and into the present day. His work has become an invaluable record of queer history.

As William celebrates his 80th birthday, BOYS! BOYS! BOYS! revisits his remarkable story in this exclusive chat with one of the pioneers of gay photography. Graeme Smith speaks to William about his extraordinary career, the stories behind some of his most powerful images, and why preserving LGBTQ+ history has never been more important.

William features in Volume Six of BOYS! BOYS! BOYS! magazine, where we celebrate his life and work.

It is great when two like minded organisations get together. So it is a great privilege for BOYS! BOYS! BOYS! to partner with Queer Was Always Here: a community dedicated to queer lives, queer art and queer history.

They also work in partnership with Choose Love to secure futures for LGBTQIA+ refugees and displaced people around the world. It is an extraordinary organisation set up by two extraordinary young actors: Sebastian Croft and Connor Jessup. Both stars from juggernaut TV shows that you will have seen: Sebastian from Heartstopper, and Connor from Falling Skies.

From 30 June - 2 July Queer Was Always Here will take over the BOYS! BOYS! BOYS! Gallery Cafe in London for a residency hosted by the boys. You can get more information and details on how to get tickets from our Instagrams @queerwaslawayshere @boysgallerycafelondon or via linktr.ee/boysfineart

Two of the most exciting young queer actors working today, recorded live at the BOYS! BOYS! BOYS! Gallery Café.

First, Xelia Mendes-Jones, the breakout star playing Dane in Amazon Prime Video's post apocalyptic juggernaut 'Fallout' opposite Ella Purnell and Kyle MacLachlan. Footballer turned Cambridge scholar turned screen actor, Xelia is razor sharp on trans representation, on the difference between a character whose transness is the whole story and one for whom it is simply true, and on why the loudest takes about who gets to play whom usually miss the point.

Then, Tiptoe star Gabriel Clark. First coming to our attention as Ollie Morgan on Hollyoaks, now in Russell T Davies' hot new drama 'Tip Toe' alongside Alan Cumming and David Morrissey. Gabriel also takes us inside the chemsex play 'Jock Night' and the tabloid storm around his coming out. Funny, fearless and unafraid to say the things most actors will not.
