Queerability
Queerability is an empowering podcast exploring LGBTQ+ identity, culture, mental health, relationships, and more.
Hosts Nick and Ellena have raw, honest conversations about what it means to be queer in today's world. Through personal stories and thoughtful discussion, they tackle topics like coming out, dating and relationships, discrimination, activism, self-care, and finding community.
Nick and Ellena believe that being LGBTQ+ comes with superpowers - resilience in the face of adversity, empathy and compassion for others, courage to live authentically, and freedom to define oneself. They explore how embracing one's queer identity can be a source of strength, confidence, and inner power.
At times, Nick and Ellena are joined by inspirational queer guests from diverse backgrounds, providing perspectives on navigating life as an LGBTQ+ person. They discuss issues relevant to gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender, non-binary, and questioning individuals.
Queerability sends an uplifting message that no matter your sexuality or gender, you have the power to thrive as your authentic self. By building a thoughtful, inclusive community, the podcast provides support and encourages queer self-love.
Join Nick and Ellena on Queerability as they discuss mental health, relationships, pop culture, current events, and more through an unapologetically queer lens. Discover the superpowers that come with living life out and being proud.

Oedipussi Rex: The Mx-adventures of a Drag Barbarian
Welcome to this weeks episode of Queerability
Today's episode we are looking into non-binary and the Drag King scene. Our guest today, is a legendary drag performer Oedipussi Rex.
Oedipussi Rex is truly the stuff of legend- i.e, Loud, chaotic and wildly inconsistent. The Beardiest of Drag Barbarians and all around hot mess, this hairy beast has been pillaging his way internationally across the land for longer that he is able to count, leaving piles of eco glitter, wool and the echoes of hardcore kazoo solos in his wake.
He is the creator of the monthly Cabaret Gameshow ‘Dragiators’, Scartist in residence at the RVT’s Pop Horror, and generally has a reputation for bringing acts of mythic proportions and creative facial hair to every stage he stomps haphazardly about on. Just don’t ask him too much about his Mum.
Epic or Tragic? You Decide!

- The queer metal scene
