This effervescent history is a window into the wonderful world of community radio an inspiration to fans of free expression, wherever they are. Forty six unsorted boxes in a damp basement contained the “archives” of one of Australia’s least orthodox media institutions. A quirky record of highs and lows, full of good humour but really accurate. Amazingly, from those daunting vestiges, Liz Giuffre and Demetrius Romeo have woven a compelling book about 2SER and its colourful people.

Their “incomplete history” has a way of telling all: The miraculous permanence of an experimental station Funny, embarrassing and revealing moments in four decades of radio 2SER’s mercurial career, delivering music and messages that struggled for a hearing Adventures of intrepid volunteers, who often went on to make household names in media and politics.
