Since recording this episode, SAG-AFTRA has gone on strike. If you want to find out more information about the strikes and ways you can help support them, here are some links to the pages Jason recommends:
Jason T. Gaffney (he/him) is one of my nearest and dearest humans/friends/inspirations and it is an absolute pleasure to have him in my life. So you can only imagine how delighted I was to have someone so special to me as a guest on this podcast.
Jason is an actor, writer, producer, and podcaster and his films Analysis Paralysis, The Perfect Wedding, and Out of Body feature gay leads in a post-coming-out world. Additionally, Marriage of Inconvenience, his new LGBTQIA+ series is out now and streaming on Dekkoo!
In this episode:
-Jason is very passionate about showcasing all aspects of our queer lives, and not just coming out. The other elements are lacking in the film and television industry, and Jason is filling those gaps with his work!
-Jason’s mom features in this episode and she is nothing short of a legend!
-There is nothing like The Full Monty to help you realise you are gay!
-My mission in life is to be friends with my friends’ moms!
-We all need to channel our inner Han Solo at times!
-Listeners you are BLESSED with tips from Jason on the film and TV industry in this episode!
-Jason’s story is beautiful, and while we know this is not the case for everyone, a reminder that these stories can so often be so full of love is such a beautiful thing!
-This story has a coming out with a capital “O”, meaning a public outting, with consent, with a gorgeous story and dedication!
-We want you to be in touch with every aspect of yourself: masculine, feminine, non-binary! There is so much to explore and love about each!
-Allowing folks to be their full selves, comfortably, on set makes them feel loved and welcome and makes for far more authentic performances!
-Jason is pen pals with Bette Midler!
-We hear a lot of very special on-set stories from Jason’s various projects!
-Update on the travel plan dilemma discussed: I fixed it!
