Loud & Queer: Recent Episodes
SYN Media
Loud & Queer is a weekly live national radio show produced by and for queer youth. The show airs on SYN Nation every Sunday, at 4pm AEST (2pm AWST).
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 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.

Chela joins Liz and Sammy to talk latest single Cool 2B Queer, it’s inspiration, larger themes and bringing together the music video! Plus we touch on creative projects and gigs outside of music, and getting back into live performance.
While Chela is always busy in different creative fields, this is the first music offering since 2019’s Delivery EP. Delivery was an incredible retro nostalgic synth pop project, and Cool 2B Queer compliments these sounds while leaning far more into modern pop styling; complimented by a camp music video packed with imagery on the corporatisation of queerness.

Tune in for Loud & Queer's rundown on the 2021 Melbourne Queer Film Festival! Laura (they/them) and Elizabeth (she/her) dove into four movies across the annual March festival.
Laura describes the heartfelt documentary "Keyboard Fantasies" about African American musician Beverly-Glenn Copeland. Copeland grew up in small-town USA in a single-minded religious community where his parents taught him classical and traditional music. Moving to Montreal, he thought he was gay before realising he was a trans man. His 1986 album, which inspired the title of the documentary, was released on a cassette to a local audience but didn't reach further afield until his old age. The documentary follows Copeland and his band as he tours across Canada, inspiring young people with his vibrant and soulful music. The only thing missing for us was more queer content focusing on self-love as Copeland accepted himself later in life. Laura's rating: 9/10
Elizabeth saw "Forgotten Roads" at Como Cinema, a Spanish film which follows the story of widower Claudina who is still discovering parts of her sexual identity. The story follows her close relationships with those in her village, her loving grandson, her estranged daughter, and her new lover, Elsa. These relationships highlight her growth but aren't integral to it; Claudina is her own person with a loving partner: they both just happen to be queer. Elizabeth's rating: 8/10
Laura visited Cinema Nova with their partner to check out "Kiss Me Before It Blows Up", a Tel Aviv-based film surrounding the engagement of a young Sapphic couple, German Maria and Israeli Shira. The couple goes through the usual trials and tribulations when 'meeting the parents', discussing their future, and the uncomfortable history of ex-flames. Their queerness is hardly an issue, but their family histories are thrown in their faces daily where in Israel, the personal is equal to the political. While the story was your average rom-com in all things cinematography, plot conventions and the like, the characters had no chemistry between them and it seemed the Palestinian issue was always played for laughs in some pretty inappropriate ways. The movie's main saviour is its occasionally witty, disastrous humour on things unrelated to Palestine. Laura's rating: 2/10 | Laura's partner's rating: "Do you accept decimal point ratings?"
Special shout out to "My First Summer", MQFF's principal film for the 2021, which Laura saw out of interest. It follows the lives of two teenage girls falling in love and supporting one another through trauma and neglect. Wildly unique and downright touching, My First Summer didn't condescend to its audience, or underestimate the strength and depth of young queer women. Laura's rating: 8/10

Sit down with Elizabeth, Laura and a cup of tea to hear about our favourite queer musicians from childhood to now, how they inspired us as gaybies, and how they fit into our lives today. What makes an artist's music queer? What makes us feel seen and represented when our favourite musicians own their sexualities in their art? How does LGBTQ+ music fit into our lives today as young adults today? Tune in to find out more.
This episode also features our weekly LGBT News Bulletin - including a new queer festival in QLD and a short dive into the United State's current slew of anti-trans legislation. Plus a Froth or Not to update you on our lives and loves this week.

Sit down for another episode of Loud & Queer to hear about LGBTQ+ news, local music, inspiring queer characters, and Laura and Elizabeth's highs and lows from the past week. Second Idol lead Kate Olivia joins us to explore queer representation in the music industry, the band's debut single, and Kate's cat Louis.
Laura and Elizabeth compare the kinds of queer representation in texts from our childhoods against the strides made in today's media. Elizabeth loves on the ace and gay rep in the Percy Jackson series, while Laura hypes up Sex Education for the ways in which it fills the gap on LGBTQ+ sex ed. There is unanimous agreement that we need more bi men across media and literature.

This week Elizabeth and Laura chatted all things queer representation and coming out at different stages in your youth.
They discuss what it's like to come out when you don't have all the language or education about queer relationships and how queer identities are gatekept due to biphobia or lack of experience.
Elizabeth sat down with old high school friend Sam Kariotis, who has since made headway as an artist in Melbourne. He discusses his process, style, and how queerness relates to his work.
Don't forget you can catch your LGBT+ news update and a chill froth or not on every episode of Loud & Queer!

Meanwhile, Elizabeth sat down with LA-based bedroom pop artist Claud to discuss all things "Super Monster" - their fresh new album.
We also covered what's been happening in LGBT+ news and ended the show with Froth or Not, a conversation which spanned cleaning out pet cages all the way up to the Facebook news ban.

Elizabeth and Laura continue their discussion from last week about their frustrations with queer media representation.

Also featured is this week's news bulletin for all things LGBT+ across the globe and a chatty froth or not which spans queer relationships in Assassin's Creed to a new hit show about the HIV epidemic on Stan.

Also featuring an LGBT+ news update and our class 'Froth or Not', this episode is the perfect way to round out your week.
