Pigmented Taboo
Pigmented Taboo is an unapologetic series where three Black gay men and their guests lay it all bare. Discussing identity, intimacy, joy, rage, healing, and everything in between. Broadcasting from London, we cut through the noise to centre the voices, stories, and experiences too often pushed to the margins.
From navigating queer nightlife and dating politics to family, faith, masculinity, and mental health. No topic is off-limits. This isn’t about respectability. It’s about truth. Loud, layered, and lived-in.

Pray It Away
From Bible verses to backhanded blessings, this episode dives headfirst into the holy war between religion and queerness. We unpack growing up in churches and mosques that preached salvation but handed us shame, the haunting reality of conversion therapy, and how colonialism exported homophobia dressed as holiness. Can you really pray the gay away, or was it never a sin to begin with? Tune in to find out.
