This week we are headed back in time to the early 80s and small(ish) town England, with the writer David Ledain, author of This Forbidden Fruit, Having Gay Sex and his most well-known work Gay Dad, a non-fiction book that compiles the stories of gay men who married women and started families.
We talk about his experiences of dipping his toe in gay life at Granny's Nightspot in Portsmouth and The Bush Inn in Chichester, grappling with his sexuality, and then deciding to turn his back on it to marry a woman.
We also talk about all the heartthrobs he remembers from those days, so get ready for some lusting and reminiscing about men he hasn't seen for almost 40 years!
You can follow David on Facebook and Twitter @davidledain, and also be sure to check out the Rainbow Dads podcast, of which David is a contributor.
