Radio AvA’s 35th show, tomorrow, Fri 31st May 2pm-5pm @ http://www.radioava.org/
This month London was a nest of seriously buzzing sex workers, with not one but two independent porn films festivals and a three day sex workers conference, Ava hardly found time for actual whoring.
On this show Ava brings you stinging bits from:
– SWARM’s 10th anniversary festival, including creative writing and performance workshops, Sex Workers of Colour, Technology and Surveillance, and Transfeminism panels, and the banging after party.
– The London Porn Film Festival: The sex work is work program and sex education panel, and inside information from Rude Jude about how they got kicked out from their venue. With Victorian ladies attached.
– No Democracy Here: a loitering interview with Liad kantorowicz at the Uncensored film festival about her political satire documentary film.
Our super-special guest this month is the sex worker, activist and film-maker Pandora / Blake, who will tell us what the fuck is happening with the looming Age Verification – scheduled for enforcement from 15th July – and answer questions on how and if should we bleach our profiles and websites content.
Frivolous floozy or not, Ava has two news segments to keep you in the loop:
– Naked Anthropologist News: plucked from cyberspace by Laura Agustin and read by Gia.
– ECP News: UK political developments, actions and legal challenges.
Already got our older regulars booked in: Wankers vs Keepers corner (warning: neck to neck!), ho stories from life and fictions, and our rampant trollop agony aunt: Auntie Wussy.
Bouncy tunes courtesy of ally DJ Sangsue, hot from the SWARM party playlist.
And no, we didn’t forget Decrim Scotland: you’ll hear all about it on our next show, broadcasting live from Glasgow.
