172: Josef Salvat: Part 2

Josef Salvat is one of my favourite pop stars so I am thrilled that this week he’s come by HS Towers for a chat about his amazing new album ‘Islands’, but of course very quickly we’re off on a whole deep yarn about how to break free from the shame LGBTQ+ people experience around sex, which pop princess inspired him to move to the UK, and finding out what the heck Queer Temporality is and how it can liberate us all. Plus, we hear from you lovely lot about your favourite records ahead of #WorldRecordStoreDay and find out how many of you lie when you asked what you’re listening to on your headphones (guilty, your honour).
