About Outcast World...

OUTCAST WORLD is an independent publication launched in March 2026 by Graeme Smith, evolving from the award-winning podcast first released in 2021.

The show won Gold for Best New Podcast within six months of launch, followed by multiple nominations including Best Interview Podcast at the 2025 British Podcast Awards, Best Independent Podcast at the Audio Academy ARIAS (2022), and Best Creative Innovation at the 2025 ARIAS. It has since generated millions of social views and expanded into an award-nominated radio show on Virgin Radio.

Today, OUTCAST WORLD is a global platform covering queer politics, sex and culture — intelligent without being stuffy, and always informed.
