With Gay Abandon
Join hosts Jess and Julie every Monday for an afternoon dose of the best in queer music and culture. We focus on exposing music and culture not found in the mainstream gay world. This includes artists that are not only queer, but also queer-friendly and supportive as well. We also spotlight fun/interesting/important things happening in our local communities. Our shows are always diverse, so expect the unexpected!
We look forward to being on the air, With Gay Abandon, with you!
