2SER’s station magazine, Listening Post, was first published the month before we launched in 1979, and ran until 1997. Prior to his work at 2SER Keith had a history in educational radio in other regions, notably working for the ABC in their educational division in Papua New Guinea. This experience inspired not just the founding of the station, but also its publication, designed to be a program listing but also much more than that. Here Keith explains the process, as well as some of the key personnel who helped get the magazine off the ground.

To follow are snippets that accompany the Forty Years of 2SER exhibition. This is only a small taste of what the station has achieved over its time - but it should wet your whistle to begin. Radio with a Point. Real Radio. Yum Cha for your ears. 40 years of Stories, Ideas and Music.
The interviews and series were produced and edited by Liz Giuffre and Jess Klajman. 

We recorded on the lands of the Gadigal People of the Eora Nation, and pay respect and acknowledge them as the traditional custodians of this land.

2SER’s 40th Anniversary Pop Up Archiving Day

On 28th of September, 2019, we held a "Pop Up Archiving Day" as part of 2SER's 40th birthday celebrations. The idea was to invite anyone with 2ser related memorabilia to join us at Studios 301 for an afternoon of nostalgia as we worked to fill gaps in the stations historical archive. Teaching us about his awesome craft was Stephen Crane, Studio 301's chief conservator and international audio legend, as well as telling some excellent stories of literally saving archival tape from shitty situations. This podcast is the conversation in full, hosted by then Station Manager Martin Walters, and station archivist Liz Giuffre asking Stephen the questions. Recorded on Gadigal Land and supported by a City of Sydney Grant and Studios 301, we're releasing this audio as part of our 45th birthday celebrations (where did the time go?!?).

More great prizes - we have always been a station of cyclists (not a joke - we're still giving away bikes in 2022). Thanks for all your support!
