Barbican's "Rebel Radio" - Part Three

"What's Good?" W/ Charlie Taylor

The good people at Barbican have blessed me with an opportunity to cover a portion of their month-long programme called "Rebel Radio": "the sound of resistance and reinvention across this month-long celebration of pirate radio and its lasting impact on music, culture and community."

In the final part, I take in the last talk, simply named "Where Are All The House Parties?", hosted by BBC Radio 1Xtra's Richie Brave with panellists DJ Alex Rita, Writer/Director Caleb Femi & DJ Lynda Rosenior-Patten. I give thoughts minutes after the talk itself and overall thoughts about the past few weeks.

I also get into the last screening of the programme "Airwaves of Rebellion: Youth, Identity, and the Fight for Community Radio" which showed another clip from a BBC coverage on Pirate Radio via their series "Radio Nights", an episode of one of the first shows directed at Black British audiences, aptly named "Ebony" and a Channel 4 Doc called "Black and White Pirate Show, the latter of which featured an introduction from Producer of the show Rob Burkitt.

Thanks to Barbican Centre for letting me get a taste of Rebel Radio and allowing me to cover the talks in the way I wanted.

Thank you for listening! If you want to contribute to the show, whether it be sending me questions or voicing your opinion in any way, peep the contact links below and I'll respond accordingly. Let me know "What's Good?"
