Show Notes


When David W. Ross was a frustrated closeted member of a boy-band he never dreamed that almost 20 years later his movie, about equal rights for gay marriages, would be in cinemas at one of the most important points in the struggle for marriage equality in the US. He talks about how photographing proposition 8 rallies led him to turn what was originally a gay marriage-themed comedy, into a heartfelt, romantic drama. Also Irish politician John Lyons speaks about taking a stand for himself and everyone else in the midst of Panti-gate.
