“How nice!” | Bonus LIVE Episode 1
We’ve taken The Log Books out of the archive for LGBT History Month! We recorded this special episode in front of an audience at an event in London on February 5th 2020. You’ll hear fresh voices and familiar ones, including Tash and Adam. As ever, we are led by the handwritten notes made by volunteers in Switchboard’s log books from 1974 to 1982. The event was held at the Finsbury Library and co-organised by Islington’s Pride, a Heritage Fund project that aims to preserve, archive and celebrate Islington’s LGBT+ heritage. Transcript here. Here are the voices you’ll hear: Julian Hows, LGBT+ rights activist and former Switchboard volunteer Marlin Khondoker, project archivist with Islington's Pride Seán McGovern, project manager with Islington's Pride Femi Otitoju, former Switchboard volunteer Adam Smith, co-producer of The Log Books Tash Walker, co-producer of The Log Books and co-chair of Switchboard ...and members of our live audience Special thanks to everyone who helped with the event and this bonus podcast episode: Luis Amália, Scott Flashheart, Helen MacKenzie, Egle Rutkauskaite and Eliot Smith.
