In our second episode for 2024, we meet our very first Olympian who is off to the 2024 Paris Olympic Games. Today Dion caught up with the sport climber, Campbell Harrison, who has been selected for his first Olympic Games this year in Paris. We had a great chat with Campbell about the sport of climbing, which is definitely an up-and-coming and exciting sport, his journey as an openly out athlete and also why potentially we aren’t seeing athletes come out from those larger, more traditional sports.

In our next episode of Our Pride podcast, Dion chats to Madeline FitzRoy, who is an out trans woman in ten-pin bowling. Now, if you remember the first episode of the Out Athlete Series with Jamie Carroll, I called out Madeline to ask if she would come on the podcast. We will chat to her about her experiences as an openly out trans athlete, and the great strides she is making in the sport.

In this episode, of Our Pride podcast, Dion caught up with the Secretary of FabAlice Thomas Coelli-Donaghy in Hay NSW. Now, if you’re sitting there thinking, I’ve got no idea what the FabAlice Festival is you are not alone, Dion was invited to the launch party in Sydney earlier in the month and it looked great, but he still really had no idea what the festival was about. Dion can’t wait for you to listen to Tom as he explains what this absolutely fabulous FabAlice Festival is all about.

As part of the Our Pride Podcast series by Mr Gay Pride Australia, Dion Alexander is starting a new series interviewing Out Athletes. This series will interview athletes who have come out of the closet and are still competing in their sport. Dion will find out a little bit more about them, about how their journey was and what their experiences were like both as an athlete that was in the closet and then an athlete who has come out of the closet and also the coming out experience. This week in the first in the series Dion chats with openly gay Australian Ten Pin Bowling star Jamie Carroll. Jamie Carroll was an openly out ten-pin bowler and was the person behind the Pride Monarchs team, the first pride team in the national ten-pin bowling competition.
