All Out with Jon Dean

JONATHAN BLAKE: 'My Extraordinary Life'. A London first HIV diagnosis - His remarkable story 42 years later

Season 2 Episode 25

This week we are joined by LGBTQ+ activist Jonathan Blake, in a conversation which may be the most important so far on this podcast - One of remembering the times of the AIDS epidemic, as told by Jonathan who was one of the UK's first people to be diagnosed with HIV, and who went on to defy the prognosis he was given of 3-9 months to live. Jonathan now 75, sits down with us and reflects on why it might be he survived, the people he loved and lost, and the choices he made - Most importantly perhaps being the one to choose life.
