Naarm/Melbourne-based comedians Freddie Arthur and Michele da Costa are on the lineup of 'Crackpot Comedy' - a Queer comedy extravaganza in what they're calling "the best suburb in Melbourne": Brunswick.  They talk to Loughlin Patrick about queer identity, pushing the line with their material and bringing their personal lives on stage.



Freddie Arthur is a local gig pig and the MC of 'Crackpot Comedy'.  A small-town girl, originally rom Mildura, her strangest gig to date was a 3-hour spot at Inward Goods Festival at 10 o’clock in the morning.



Michele da Costa is a Brazilian born comedian with a new solo show 'Life Alone'. The three-time RAW Comedy Semifinalist loves dark humour, bad puns and blending political rants with dad jokes shamelessly.



Crackpot Comedy runs on Thursday 11 and 18 April.  Life Alone runs from Wednesday, 27 March (tomorrow!) to Sunday, 7 April.  Head to comedyfestival.com.au for tickets.



Loud + Queer is the voice of Melbourne/Naarm's queer culture shapers and change makers.  Listen live on SYN 90.7FM, digital radio and online.  And stream anytime online with your preferred podcast platform; just search 'Loud + Queer SYN.'

Loud + Queer is still bringing you queer conversations with L+Qx a whole host of shows across SYN.



Tom Nethersole and Robert Baxter join Loughlin Patrick fresh off the release of their tracks 'Meant To Be Alone' and 'Tokyo'.  Tom says working as a wedding photographer led him to overhear a groom confess to cheating on his bride with a bridesmaid who was walking her down the aisle.  And Robert says sharing an Uber to a club went terribly wrong when their fellow passenger came seeking reparations - catching the club owner in the crossfire.  The catch?  One of them is lying.



It's raw and unreal: 'I Want To Hear You Say It' is an interview with a twist.  One guest will share a wild story from their lives; the other will make up a complete lie.  Will they team up or turn against each other as we try to sort fact from fiction?  And will you be able to figure it out before the show is over?  The clock is ticking...



Hear 'Meant To Be Alone' and 'Tokyo' out now wherever you listen to to music.

Villains and Visibility

Evie and Christian are joined in the studio this week by guest host Teddy Murray, events and fundraising co-ordinator for Querelle 2018, a national student-run queer magazine. We talk about the origins of the magazine and its parent conference 'Queer Collaborations', our first experiences with queer events, the theme of 'visibility' and a very philosophical round of Froth or Not.
