Current Affairs - The opinions of a grumpy old pouf

 
Doug Pollard is a veteran gay journalist, columnist, commentator, and broadcaster specialising in GLBTI issues, based in Melbourne Australia. He often works with Rob Mitchell of the RJM Trust, "We are separate independent and unaffiliated guerilla campaigners and advocates, and the best of mates: nimble, fast-moving, unconventional and above all aiming to drive rapid change", he says.

FRESHLY DOUG THURSDAY JULY 15

Australian Sex Party
Does my bum look big in this?


9am to Noon this Thursday, one of the last shows before the election?

POLITICS, JAZZ AND A MANKINI

Well it’s certainly starting to get political round these parts! Today we have an array of candidates for you from Labor, the Greens and the Sex Party.


Janet Rice is hosting a jazz night for the Greens in the state seat of Footscray, Cath Bowtell is taking Lindsay Tanner’s place in the federal seat of Melbourne, and Austen Tayshus will be campaigning for the Australian Sex Party round Sydney’s Northern beaches wearing a mankini.

INVISIBLE LESBIANS

Daniel Witthaus’s tour challenging homophobia in rural and regional Australia. His latest temporary home was Brisbane, where he encountered a very supportive family and heard about the comparative invisibility of indigenous lesbians.

NO MORE HIDE & SEEK

And speaking of mankinis, the delectable Dean Beck from Joy’s own sex show, Hide & Seek, is my special guest on Digging Deeper today. Let’s see if we can drag him into the daylight, so to speak.
