Description

My name is Tony Reed. I am the host of G.A.Y., Coast Access Radio’s programme for gay people and their friends on the Kāpiti/Horowhenua Coast and beyond, which I took over from my friend Steve Green in early 2011. Steve set up Kāpiti G.A.Y. and ran it for a couple of years before handing over to me. Thanks for all your work, Steve. I came to New Zealand from Britain in 1998, and settled in the Wellington region, as I knew I would. My main interests are history, politics, film and drama and classical music. So you will be hearing something about these topics on the programme. But it IS your programme, so please tell me what else you would like to hear about.
