Subscribe on your favourite podcast app or via this link

S1E1 - Good Morning, Mr Petersen

Riots, protests, police intimidation and an unstoppable group of journalists bent on exposing the rot in Queensland politics.

S1E2 - Billy Bragg and the Deep North

An electric night in a south Brisbane rugby club where a three way friendship formed between a city, a singer and a radio station.

S1E3 - Looking back at the Murri Hour

Warinkil Aunty Glenice Croft and Shellar MB Barney Croft take you through the music, voices and politics from the Murri Hour program they helped establish on 4ZZZ in the 1980s.

S1E4 - How Triple J Stole the Hottest 100 (well... kind of)

Hear the story of how a 4ZZZ listener poll made it's way down the East Coast to a radio station in Sydney, and evolved into a national institution.

S1E5 - Queering the Airwaves for 30 years

For over 30 years people have been tuning in - some driving just within range of the 4ZZZ signal - every Wednesday evening to be part of an accepting community of queer broadcasters.

S1E6 - The Punk Marketplace

A music festival, another riot, and the radio station at the centre of Brisbane's punk attitude.

OFF AIR

Thanks for a record breaking Radiothon!

Thanks for celebrating Radio Against the Machine with us this Radiothon. You've made this year's subscriber campaign one of our most successful ever!

Your support means we're able to keep the people and passion that drove 4ZZZ on air. It's another year of giving local artists a platform, giving a voice to marginalised communities and championing the rich cultural fabric of this city.

We're now diving into the job of packing and posting all your subscriber packs and merch. There's a lot, over 1,500, so please be patient as our volunteers get everything to you.

If you were planning to pick up your pack from the station, that's ready for you now. You can pop in to reception between 10am to 4pm Tuesday to Friday or 10am to 2pm on Saturdays to collect it. If you originally said you wanted your pack posted out but have changed your mind and want to come in, please give us a call - 3252 1555 - or drop us an email - reception@4zzz.org.au - so we can let you know when we'll have it ready for you.

To get an update on shipping times or to check in on the progress of your order feel free to give us a call or email using those details. One of our volunteers will be able to update you.

Finally, to celebrate the success of this campaign we're going to keep the good times rolling for a little longer, with a few choice prizes still available until the end of August. Head to our Radiothon page for the full details.

Thanks for supporting 4ZZZ and Radio Against the Machine.

Access All Areas Success

What an incredible turn for our Access All Areas Event at The Triffid in April. We had an absolute blast partying and raising funds to help make 4ZZZ more accessible.

🤯 We raised almost $10,000! 🤯

All proceeds will be going towards making 4ZZZ more accessible for people with a disability at the station, joining the volunteer announcer base and becoming an integral voice of our grassroots media and local music community.

There were so many smiling faces and excellent bands supporting our cause.

A big thank you to The Triffid, but mostly a big thank you to all of you who came along, whether you bought merch, went in on the raffle, bought a beverage, or simply came along to have a dance.

Sonic Masala Festival

One of the BIGGEST and BESTEST days for live music is lined up for August 12th at The Triffid!

For 10 years, Sonic Masala Festival has been an epic day to celebrate all the things we love about our community, and we can’t wait to party with all our favourite people; YOU!

Get behind; 4ZZZ | Sonic Sherpa | Philter | Season Three Instruments | Brisbane Drums | The Triffid, Sonic Masala | Zang Records Presents Sonic Masala Fest 2023

Thanks for a record breaking April Atonement!

That's a wrap witches! Thank you so much to all those who subscribed during the month of April for showing your devotion to the most enchanting community radio station in the REALM!

Your contribution helps us keep the magic alive, this enables us to continue giving local artists a platform to be heard, marginalised voices the opportunity to tell it like it is, and celebrate the weird and wonderful of this enchanting city. 

Our volunteers are stirring the cauldron and weaving spells filled with warm inner glow for all the subscriber packs heading your way, so if you haven't received your sub pack yet it should be with you shortly. If you've got any questions about the progress of your delivery please give the station a call on 07 3252 1555 or email reception@4zzz.org.au.

Thank you! We hope you're all enjoying your warm inner glow! Thanks for supporting independent community media.
