FNL – Dead or Alive

Author: JOY 94.9 - LGBTI, LGBTIQA+, LGBTQIA+, LGBT, LGBTQ, LGB, Gay, Lesbian, Trans, Intersex, Queer Podcasts for all our Rainbow Communities January 27, 2026 Duration: 1:46:27

Strange theme, not as macabre as you might think.
Music choices range broadly.
Sue is “back to school” grumpy so parades all her issues.
David makes fun of her, as does Geoffrey who’s in the studio for this one.
There’s a running obsession with exclamation marks!
Your podcaster has no right to judge – she uses way too many of them!!!!!

There's a particular energy to the end of the week, and Friday Night Live with David and Sue captures it perfectly. Born from the studios of JOY 94.9, this audio space is a vibrant mix of laughter, candid conversation, and the latest tunes, all reflecting the diverse experiences of LGBTIQA+ and rainbow communities. Each episode feels like dropping in on good friends who are just as likely to dissect a new album as they are to share a hilarious personal story or discuss what's happening in culture and society. David and Sue bring a warm, welcoming, and often witty perspective to everything they touch, creating a sense of connection that extends far beyond the radio broadcast. Tuning into this podcast means joining a community-focused conversation that’s as thoughtful as it is entertaining, where music soundtracks the discussion and genuine camaraderie is always on the menu. It’s the kind of show that makes your Friday evening a little brighter, offering a blend of comedy, cultural insights, and great company.
