Are you still friends with the people that you used to go clubbing with? Do you keep in touch with them, or just facebook stalk them late at night when the image of their face pops in to your head? 

Do you know what they've been up to since you knew them, and have any of them gone on to do great or not-so-great things...?

Well, whatever it is it's probably not going to be as scandalous as the actions of the friend of this week's guest! 

And, who is that guest? Well, it's the genderqueer multi-disciplinary artist, educator, and podcaster John Moletress. 

John started to go out on Philadelphia's gay scene when they were just 16, and found a core group of people with who they would go to clubs like the lost space Shampoo. 

We caught up to talk all about 90s fashion, the etiquette of after parties, and getting frisky with the boy next door... 

Do you have any memories of Shampoo, or clubbing from your own queer scene that you want to share? Well, if you have please get in touch - I want to create the biggest online record of people's memories and stories - go to www.lostspacespodcast.com and find the section 'Share a Lost Space' and tell me what you got up to! Bonus points for embarrassing photos!
