You know how sometimes you go in to a space, and you instantly feel at home? Like, none of that awkwardness whilst you get your bearings - everyone is friendly and open and you feel totally comfortable. And, when you find those places you want to make sure that you go back time and again and soak up those good vibes. Right? RIGHT? Well, not so much for this week's guest, the award winning writer Marlee Jane Ward, who went to Sydney's Club Kooky only the once after being taken there when she first moved to the city way back in 2001.  Why did she not go back? Well, you'll have to listen to the episode to find out! We talk all about how to be unapologetically yourself, running away from home without a plan, and Y2K fashions... Do you have any memories of Club Kooky, or clubbing from your own queer scene that you want to share?
