We recall the safe and friendly fun of 2017 Midsumma Carnival Day and the liberation we can now enjoy, and we recall the bad old days when we had to hide.

We remember the contributions from Edmund White and Patricia Highsmith in writing about gay experiences, and we recall the role of the influential Ita Buttrose (AO OBE) in explaining the AIDS crisis in the 1980s to the readers of her women’s magazines.

We speak with Tim Peppard of Australian Marriage Equality and their hope to have long-term partners join them at this year’s Pride March. For more info please email Tim at > [email protected] <

Phil gives us the history of computer viruses and we talk about talented singers, first seen in boy-bands or on TV show like ‘Idol’.

Plus some trivia and mirth and much more ….
