Have we got a special special for you this time! In November 2015, the National Film and Sound Archives built an expansive archive of classic queer radio programme Gaywaves. To mark the occasion they held an event celebrating the past and future of queer radio, with guests from classic Gaywaves era, Canberra's Gay Wavelength and Friday Night Lip Service.

 

A look at queer radio and history covering almost forty years. Listen in and find out how things have changed - and stayed the same - in world of LGTBIAQ community radio.
