JOY Radiothon 2025: Geeks Out vs Out Takes Crossover Extravaganza!

Author: JOY 94.9 - LGBTI, LGBTIQA+, LGBTQIA+, LGBT, LGBTQ, LGB, Gay, Lesbian, Trans, Intersex, Queer Podcasts for all our Rainbow Communities May 16, 2025 Duration: 1:47:15

Every year, JOY 94.9’s Radiothon brings us together to celebrate, support, and sustain LGBTQIA+ voices in media. This year’s theme, ‘Stronger Together’, is a rallying call: in a world of daily challenges, unity empowers us to amplify our voices and build a brighter, more inclusive future.

This year, the Geeks Out and Out Takes teams joined forces for a 2 hour live radio-crossover-extravaganza to celebrate the theme and our wonderful queer radio station that we broadcast on every Monday night. There was lots of laughs and fun going on plus we battled it out in a 4 part movie quiz that challenged our minds and proved that we are Stronger Together! Show your love for JOY now and all year ’round by making a donation or becoming a member to support Australia’s first and only LGBTQIA+ community radio station.
