Audio: Mandrake Society Radio interviews co-hosts of Lambda Weekly

by JW Richard of Mandrake Arts & Media

This week, after Harold and I discuss Pride weekend events, I’m sharing a conversation I had with the co-hosts of Lambda Weekly: David Taffet, Lerone Landis, and Patti Fink. Now in its 27th season, Lambda Weekly discusses politics and entertainment affecting the LGBT community and airs every Sunday from noon to 1 p.m. on KNON 89.3 FM, smacked between holy ghost, throw-down gospel music, and polka.

Along with that programming blend, we discuss the origins of the show in 1983 and plenty of funny stories through the years. Following that interview and some music is a small portion of a longer 1963 interview of James Baldwin by Dr. Kenneth Clark from the program, “The Negro and the American Promise,” courtesy of WGBH Media Library and Archives. You’re also hear poetry by Athens Boyz Choir called, “Biological,” with additional audio enhancement by yours truly.
