Radio Reversal is a show that subjects aspects of everyday life to historico-political, theoretical, cheeky, irreverent, high brow, low brow, eye brow, warm-hearted analysis. Our aim is to see the world more clearly, think about what we'd like it to become, and how we can make that happen. We think that discussing these sorts of ideas is one way to lessen the alienation that affects many of us trying to make sense of a world that so often makes no sense of us. We also play loads of awesome music (sometimes thematic!) with great enthusiasm for requests and an emphasis on supporting local artists. It's fun!

Hello friends & welcome to the third meeting of the 2032 NOlympics Committee! This week on the show, join Anna & Nat on an excursion to Ibis Island where they give a talk on fascism & olympics fatalism, and how we can resist it. We dig back into the concept of Event Capture that we've been exploring over the past few weeks, this time introducing the concept of "narrative capture" or "future capture" - the way that the storytelling and political discourses around the Olympics serve to fuel fascism, launder settler colonialism and obscure more radical possibilities for the city.
As always, we'll also be sharing loads of new local music and discussions about upcoming events - including the Paperbark Zine Fair which is coming up this Saturday 25th July from 12pm - 5pm at Jagera Hall. There'll be more details on the event in the comments below, but if you're in the mood for some DIY anarchist political literature, head over to see Radio Reverser Anna who'll have a bunch of new political zines, art zines & one-off pieces for your reading pleasure!
