Matter of Pride: a comedy education of gay history (with comedian Aaron Twitchen)
Society & Culture:Relationships
What do we have to do to illegalise gay conversion therapy?
Despite religious leaders and world governments announcing ban proposals for gay conversion therapy - the practise still exists.
This episode, we delve deeper into what the practise involves - from electric shock treatment to lobotomy - and how an openly gay man can become the leader of a conversion cult.
