Hello Poz Vibers,
Welcome back to a brand new Chem Sessions x Poz Vibe Podcast episode.
This week we had a wonderful conversation with Pat, a single country gentleman and a kinky bear with a bit of a wild side. He spoke to us very openly about his relationship with drugs, chem sex and how his own internalised homophobia has affected him.
As always, stay positive and stay powerful tribe.

Remember to stay positive and stay powerful.
Love,
Veda and Robbie.

In this episode of the Chem Sessions we were so grateful to hear the story of Michael Walsh. He shared his experience of chem sex and his struggles with addiction. Thankfully, he has come out the other side of darker times and in this own words he says ‘Born in 1978 in Rockbrock, Rathfarnham...three children - so yeah, I’m a daddy and a DADDI!’
We hope Michael’s story give you hope. During the conversation, he also mentioned a crystal meth anonymous organisation that some of you may find useful: https://www.crystalmeth.org.uk/

Veda and Robbie.

Hello Tribe!
We are Poz Vibers through and through but for this season, we're taking a slightly different path and focussing on Chemsex and all that goes with it.
In our first episode for this project, we spoke to Andrew Shannon, Chemsex Project Coordinator at MPower Ireland. But that's not all that's new. The wonderful Lavender the Queen has created a beautiful graphic for us and Tina Berner is our new continuity announcer. Lucky us! Our two constants however are Queen Veda and Dr. Robbie Lawlor who are still leading us on this journey together.
Welcome one and all. We're here for you.
Love,
Veda and Robbie.

It's World Aids Day - may the Power of Poz be with you!
We are so happy to have a very special guest joining us this week - the icon and musical legend that is Holly Johnson! He was performing at the National Concert Hall but Veda managed to sit down with his old friend to talk about Holly's experience of living with H.I.V. He shares what it was like in the 80s when friends were starting to get diagnosed, what it's like getting older with H.I.V and of course, the power of love!
Robbie was away this week so big thanks to Adrian Duggan, former guest and member of the Poz Vibe Tribe, for joining Veda.
Finally, if you're in Dublin City this evening, we're hosting a big World Aids Day celebration and you're all invited. Details are here.
Love,
Veda and Robbie.

Welcome back Poz Viberz.
We had a gorgeous chat this week with Donagh O'Malley who talked about his experience of living with HIV. Donagh shared what it was like telling his mum about his status and the joy of adopting his young son. He returned to live in Ireland in early 2022, after 28 years living away and works for himself in the music industry. He has established a gorgeous new life and routine here with his son, dog and cat near Portobello in Dublin.
We hope you love it.
Pozitively Yours,
Veda and Robbie.
