Sexuality, with Joe Sutherland

Rosie Jones: Box Ticker Too

Available for 314 days

Stand-up comedy and chat from triple-threat Rosie Jones. She’s disabled, gay and northern. But she’s not a great example of any of these communities, and she’s tired of being asked to speak on their behalf. This time, Rosie looks at sexuality with help from stand-up Joe Sutherland. Both coming from small and conservative towns, they compare growing up perceiving themselves as outliers, the effect and affections of labels in sexuality, and the liberation they found from coming out and freely expressing themselves. Recorded in a live comedy club, prepare to be shocked and disappointed by Rosie’s lack of respect for your expectations. Producer: Richard Melvin A Dabster production for BBC Radio 4, first broadcast in November 2021.
