Welcome to Space & Sexuality, a new podcast series that brings together leading and emerging scholars in the field of queer geographies to explore cutting-edge research at the intersections of spatiality, sexuality, and subjectivity. Grounded in the fields of geographies of sex and sexualities and trans geographies, in each episode Dr Joe Jukes pursues critical inquiry, reflection, and intellectual exchange with scholars from around the world.

Series 1 features conversations with the editors and contributing authors of Queer Geographies: Key Debates and Contending Perspectives (Bain, Podmore, and Arun-Pina, 2025). While discussions engage with academic ideas, they are also shaped by a warm, conversational tone that reflects the collaborative and socially-networked aspects of critical and interdisciplinary academic work. By combining rigorous scholarship with accessible conversation, Space & Sexuality aims to foster global connections among researchers while opening up vital debates to wider audiences.Copyright Joe Jukes

  • Filmic geographies and queer screen cultures with Helen Hok-Sze Leung
    Sep 30 2026
    What are the geographies of film? Helen Leung joins the podcast to discuss how films are integral to place-making in both material and aesthetic senses. Whilst geography can turn to films for visual representations of spaces, experimental techniques that mediate space and politicised narratives that trouble them, Helen emphasises that geography can be deployed to study queer screen cultures too. In particular, we consider the Vancouver Queer Film Festival as a spatial phenomenon, and discuss what Helen and others call "inter-referencing", which offers an alternative mode of critique to "comparison".

  • LGBTQ+ friendship, spatial commitments and rural England with Joe Jukes
    Sep 16 2026
    We get by with a little help from our friends, and for LGBTQ+ people, sometimes our friendships are what sustain us. In this episode I (Joe Jukes) reflect on the chapter "LGBTQ+ friendship and spatial commitments: queer socialities in the making of a new rural" (2025) to explore why a queer friendship is not the same as a "chosen family", as soothing as that phrase may be. I also talk about my home region, the West Country in South West England and the particular, queer carspaces I experienced there during my PhD research. Ultimately, along with my colleague Derek Ruez, we think about queer space's capacity to bring people together and create places of political solidarity.

    - The Radical Faeries of Albion
    - The Wurzels
    - Critical Friendship Studies

  • (Dis)placing Pride, and queer/trans migrant critique with Derek Ruez
    Sep 2 2026
    Derek Ruez joins the show to talk about tensions and politics within the rainbow. Whilst Pride is a moment where many communities under the LGBTQ+ come together to make collective demands, it is also a space where multiple tensions emerge and conflicting politics are enacted. Derek shares his research into the multiple Pride-spaces of Copenhagen, in which the politics of migration and racialisation affect LGBTQ+ mobilisations across the city. Our conversation also considers the value of place-specificity as a core component of queer and geographic scholarship. Context, it turns out, is always key for both researching, and making demands of, our personal and political worlds!

    Shownotes:
    - Terrorist Assemblages: Homonationalism in Queer Times (Puar, 2007)
    - Nordic Exceptionalism
    - “A global sense of place” in Marxism Today (Doreen Massey, 1991)
