We had the pleasure to chat to Robert AKA Polka Dot - a Polish drag queen living in London, and co-founder of the Easten European performance & party collective Slav4U. We spoke about growing up queer in 90s and 00s Poland, Polish queer culture and nightlife, and the ongoing struggle for LGBT+ rights. Listen to find out about Polish gay anthems, queering disco polo and why Tinky Winky from Teletubbies is a gay icon.
