On the Season 2 debut of Lost Cultures: Living Legacies , we travel to Bermuda, an Atlantic island whose history spans centuries and continents. Once uninhabited, Bermuda became a vital stop in transatlantic trade, a maritime stronghold, and a cultural crossroads shaped by African, European, Caribbean, and Native American influences. Guests Dr. Kristy Warren and Dr. Edward Harris trace its transformation from an uninhabited island to a strategic outpost shaped by shipwrecks, colonization, the transatlantic slave trade, and the rise and fall of empires. Plus, former Director of Tourism Gary Phillips shares the story of the Gombey tradition, a vibrant performance art rooted in resistance, migration, and cultural fusion. Together, they reveal how Bermuda’s layered past continues to shape its people, culture, and identity today.

Today's episode features Matty Hennessey and his journey within the gender-expansive community. Matty is the Founder, CEO, and Product Designer for Eversense Toys, a sex toy company targeted directly at making intimacy more comfortable for the gender-expansive community. Matty and I mull over topics as diverse as how children observe gender innocently, the struggle to be seen, and how important it is to take action when you know something is right.
