Lucy Pasha-Robinson chats with gender discombobulist and drag queen Rory O’Neill, AKA Panti Bliss, who lives with HIV.

In 1995, when Rory was diagnosed, his doctor handed him a death sentence. Now, it’s a medically managed condition that Rory barely thinks about. In this episode, we explore the dangers of the enduring stigma around HIV, in spite of the huge strides in treatment that have happened over the past three decades.

We talk about how not to lose yourself in a diagnosis, and what helped Rory stay grounded.

And we dive into the healing power of drag, and taking ownership of the narrative around your condition through comedy.
