Coming out later in life brings a whole different set of challenges and questions about identity, community and where you fit in to all of that. 

This week I was lucky enough to sit down and talk to writer and podcaster Nicholas McInerny, who is the host of Rainbow Dads, a podcast that shares the stories of gay and bisexual dads, most of whom have come out later in life. 

But, we're not here to talk about them - we're here to find out about Nicholas, and his experiences navigating the gay scene after coming out. 

We talk all about the magic of Burning Man festival, the iconic London club night XXL, and one of my favourite topics ever - embarrassing sexual encounters!

Do you have any memories of XXL, 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!
