Brighton Radio Reverb launches new LGBT Radio show
July 2011 saw the launch of a new audio LGBT show by Kathy Caton for Brighton’s non-profit community station, Radio Reverb 97.2fm. Called ‘Out In Brighton’, it’s a radio guide to all things lesbian, gay, bisexual and trans in Brighton & Hove and is broadcast live on Radio Reverb 97.2FM between 4-5pm Thursday and repeated throughout the week.

Kathy has a wealth of experience in radio having worked for the BBC for the last 11 years, four of which were with BBC Radio 4 and is also one of the original founders of Radio Reverb. As well as the ‘Out In Brighton’ show, Kathy recently joined the team at Zhoosh to help us to become ‘multi-media’ and write reviews and posts for the zhoosh blog.
