Don’t miss the mighty Sporting Record Garage Sale on Saturday 14 November 9am-3pm. The Sporting Record is joining the Garage Sale Trail and taking over the 3CR car park for a day of great finds and good vibes to raise funds for 3CR. You’ll find plants, records, cassettes, 3CR merch, and plenty more treasures on offer. Come down, have a browse, and support 3CR.

Are you keen to improve your podcast skills, or have an idea and need help to establish your podcast? Next month we’ll be running our final podcast course for the year on Sunday 11 October, and Sunday 18 October at our studios in Fitzroy, Melbourne. Registrations are now open, but places are limited. 3CR has decades of podcast experience - and we're keen to share! The 2-day (10-hour) course is a great way to learn, to meet fellow podcasters and get the support you need to create great podcasts. Get more information online here.

Congratulations to Sally Goldner, presenter of Out of the Pan, on her award for Outstanding Contribution to Media at the Victorian Pride Awards on Saturday 15 August. 'This is a first', Sally said accepting the award, 'A queer media award to someone who plays music of all the non-binary kinds, country, western, and classic rock. Oh yeah!'

'I want to thank 3CR in its 50th year for being a leader in Melbourne and the broader not-for-profit and amazing community radio sectors for their 21-year support of Out of the Pan. They’ve been so well placed to be a proactive media leader standing with trans and gender diverse people, and for their support of me personally.'

'Stay difficult. And stay happy. Stay proudly queer. And that’s the bottom line, because Sal Goldner said so!'
