This Lefty Pinkoes podcast features a young, gay Tiwi Islander who is freakishly talented in the worlds of theatre, drag and the performing arts.
If you’ve never heard of the Tiwi Islands, they are a long way from the Joy studios in Melbourne. They ’float’ over 100 kilometres north of Darwin, surrounded by the sea and many, many fish.
Life and culture there can seem a world away, and so we’re both chuffed and grateful that our guest Jason De Santis makes like a bridge, no – a rainbow! – from his Tiwi world to ours to talk about his gay identity, his Sistergirls and ‘Kentucky Fried Turtle’.
If you’ve never heard of the Tiwi Islands, have a listen…
We dedicate this Lefty Pinkoes podcast to Sam Wallman.
