In GBA 295 we get better acquainted with Joseph. He talks about acting, anti-bullying advocacy, impostor syndrome, sexuality, vulnerability, social commentary and so much more. We also spend a good chunk of the beginning of our conversation talking about activism and action within the current political climate, which includes a potted history of my own (pretty inactive) activism, the rise of modern fascism, the triggering of Article 50 and the importance of defending migrant rights and showing solidarity. \n\nJoseph plugs: \n\nHis just launched podcast: I Want To Be https://itunes.apple.com/gb/podcast/i-want-to-be/id1223801760?mt=2\n\nI plug:\n\nThe Family Tree: http://thefamilytreepodcast.co.uk/\n\nWe mention:\n\nPodcaster's Support Group: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=571436979623574\nFelix Trench: https://soundcloud.com/gettingbetteracquainted/gba-258-felix-trench\nLondon Attack: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2017_Westminster_attack\nMilitant Labour: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Militant_(Trotskyist_group)#The_Open_Turn\nIraq March: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/15_February_2003,_anti-war_protests\nTUC Demo: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2011_London_anti-cuts_protest\nUK Uncut: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UK_Uncut\nFortnam and Mason: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/av/uk-12871359/protesters-occupy-fortnum-mason\nGreen and Black Cross: https://greenandblackcross.org/\nMartin Austwick: http://www.martinzaltzaustwick.com/\nHelen Zaltzman: http://helenzaltzman.com/\nOwen Jones: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Owen_Jones_(writer)\nArticle 50 being triggered: https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2017/mar/29/theresa-may-triggers-article-50-with-warning-of-consequences-for-uk\nAnti-Deportation protest: https://www.theguardian.com/world/2017/mar/29/arrests-as-stansted-anti-deportation-protesters-lock-themselves-to-plane\nBlack Lives Matter - airport protest: https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2016/sep/06/climate-change-racist-crisis-london-city-airport-black-lives-matter\nFocus E15: https://focuse15.org/\nHousing March: https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2015/jan/31/march-for-homes-focus-e15-mums-london-homelessness-priced-out-area\nJosie Long: http://www.josielong.com/\nPalestine - Joe Sacco: https://www.amazon.co.uk/d/Books/Palestine-Joe-Sacco/0224069829\nPage One: http://www.pageonepodcast.com/\nJoseph on Page One: http://www.pageonepodcast.com/season4/#/page-one-116-joseph-paterson/\nCharles Adrian Gillot: http://www.charlesadrian.co.uk/\nPaul McCartney: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_McCartney\nEast 15: http://www.east15.ac.uk/\nSaved: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saved_(play)\nEdward Bond: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edward_Bond\nHope Theatre Islington: http://www.thehopetheatre.com/\nTwo Short Plays About Gays: http://www.thehopetheatre.com/productions/two-short-plays-gays/\nLouise Jameson: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Louise_Jameson\nTragic Beginnings: https://soundcloud.com/standuptragedy/sets/tragic-beginnings\nStand Up Tragedy: http://www.standuptragedy.co.uk/\nStraight Jacket - Matthew Todd: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Straight-Jacket-Matthew-Todd-x/dp/0593069781\nAnswer Me This! http://answermethispodcast.com/\nCBT: http://www.nhs.uk/Conditions/Cognitive-behavioural-therapy/Pages/Introduction.aspx\n\nHelp more people get better acquainted.
