In the three years of this show we've never sat down to talk to someone who actually owned and operated a queer space. But, that's all changing today, as we get to pick the brain of Keaton Kash, current host of the Mod Love podcast, and former owner of Toronto's The Steady. 

Now, I don't know if I should be saying that this is a cautionary tale, but there are definitely some important lessons about going in to business to glean from this chat. Keaton tells us all about business partners, business loans, and business woes.

But there’s also a lot of pride that comes through about what he built, and how it helped him to feel more a part of his community… so, don’t worry - not all doom and gloom!

Do you have any memories of The Steady, or clubbing from your own queer scene that you want to share?
