For the finale of this season of i-Dentity, discussing everything from growing up in the Chicago house scene, how New York made her hardcore, why trans visibility isn’t enough on its own, and her own definition of “style”, the one and only Honey Dijon.

“40 minutes? You want to maybe reduce a lifetime of struggle, and art, and sex and music and fashion into 40 minutes?!” An indisputable force of nature, trying to bottle the essence of Honey Dijon in a single podcast episode is almost a moot task – but for the final episode of i-Dentity, we tried our very best.

S3 E10: Honey Dijon

Meet the man who presided over London’s glittering 00s queer nightlife

This week, we’re back with none other than James ‘Jeanette’ Main, the former Boombox host and East London nightlife legend. In the mid-2000s, he became the so-called ‘door girl’ for Richard Mortimer’s Sunday evening club night Boombox, known by the moniker of ‘Jeanette’. One of a handful of nights in the East End, it sparked a renaissance in queer London nightlife and marked a shift in the city’s creative centre, playing host to fashion designers, musicians, artists, art students —&nbsp;and indeed the occasional icon —&nbsp;who all had to pass Jeanette to get to the dancefloor. As he puts it: “Subculture is doing what you can’t help not do, doing what is burning inside you, and finding others who have the same burning desire as you.”
