KBOO has been at the conference for years! We'll see you there!

Soul, one of KBOO's Out Loud volunteer producers, is hosting a KBOO fund raiser in the form of a mini-workshop.  He needs our help in packing Liberty Hall with up to 145 people next Sunday from 12:45 - 3 p.m.

Two events in one afternoon:

It was a joy to interview Lipstick & Dipstick in the KBOO studios last week. We laughed alot. This duo has chemistry that cannot be denied! Their new book is hilarious!

To hear their stories, enjoy their humor, and learn from their advice, catch them at these Portland area events:

Jan 22 at 7:30 pm at Powell's Books (1005 W Burnside) for an interactive book reading

Jan 26 from 5 to 9 pm Hot Flash Dance at Barracudas (9 NW 2nd Ave) They will be emceeing the party, reading and signing books (more.....)

Have you heard? Lipstick & Dipstick are locals & they're also well known to women around the world!

They'll be hosts for the L Word season preimiere Sunday Jan 6th at the Bagdad Theater 

Voted the #1 column in CURVE in a recent reader's poll, Lipstick & Dipstick give punchy advice to the lesbian community, a measured blend of guidance, wit and sincerity from the femme and the butch perspective.

You may already know that KBOO did not meet our financial goal during our last pledge drive. The station relies on our listeners for a large portion of our operating budget. If you are not yet a member but enjoy what you hear on KBOO, please consider becoming a member today. Click the 'join now' icon in the upper right corner of the page and you will be taken to a secure page to make your contribution to this fine radio station.

And remember - talk is cheap. Free speech isn't.

If you give a damn, join now.

Tune in to tomorrow's Out Loud show (11/6 at 6 pm) for DJ Puppet's farewell! She's leaving town and you'll hear from her directly, as well as enjoy music she's chosen for her own going away. Puppet has been an incredible asset to our community and we're sorry to see her go. Join us as we celebrate her & her many contributions to PDX.

We need interested folks to get involved with creating this radio show. What else could be better than shamelessly promoting all things homo on the radio? There are many different ways that you can contribute to the show!
