Make the Yuletide Gay
Wednesday, 17 December, 2025

Happy Christmas one and all! Treat yourself to an early Christmas gift by listening to the latest episode of Casement's Leftovers, in which we discuss one of our favourite topics: gay identity. Have you ever wondered: if Glen is really from Tallaght, then why does he talk like THAT? Then wonder no more. We dive deep into the social construction of gayness and its interaction with class through discussion of two books, listed below. We finish up by asking: this Christmas, is it possible for us all to be happy?Warning: We get surprisingly sincere (for us) about spirituality, sexuality, class, Christmas, and happiness in this episode. This sincerity may shock, disturb, or maim. Books discussed:- Returning to Reims by Didier Eribon- How To Be Gay by David M. Halpernin Support the show
