We have two stories from people recapturing moments that made a mark. The first story deals with issues of consent and may be triggering for some listeners. There is also some strong language.

‘Humbug’ by Sidney Shaw
Trying to blend in with the scenery at a bar is difficult when you’re easily the youngest person there. Factor in a short lifetime of deep-seated insecurity, excessive alcohol consumption and being noticed by a predatory older man, and watch as things quickly spiral. This is a deeply personal recollection on vulnerability, power dynamics and the grey areas of consent.
