This week we feature Kiwi new-wave band Mi-Sex who've just release their first record in over 30 years! I recall being mesmerized by their synth-driven hit 'Computer Games' when I heard it late at night on ABCTV's Rage program and I've since discovered this song become #1 on the Australian charts.

You can hear the single Mi Sex, Your Sex on the show today.

This week we hear how Gerry was inspired to take direct action as a member of the Squamish Five and he speaks candidly about what motivated his urban guerilla activities. This is a much-listen interview...
