You Can Get Your Gay On All Cars with Satellite Radio
by Joe LaMuraglia
If you are regular reader of this site, you know that we’ve been guests on Sirius OutQ a few times in the past 10 months. Sadly, many of you couldn’t hear us live because your car is equipped with XM and OutQ was a Sirius-only channel.
As of February 2nd, that all has changed. Thanks to the merger of Sirius and XM, you can listen to the award-winning OutQ on Sirius channel 109 AND XM channel 98.
Did I say award-winning? Yes, I did. OutQ was honored with a special recognition award from the Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation (GLAAD) for The Laramie Project, 10 Years Later – The Lasting Legacy of Matthew Shepard. The two-hour documentary aired originally on October 10th, 2008 to commemorate the 10-year anniversary of Matthew Shepard’s death. Conceived and produced by Romaine Patterson, a friend of Matthew Shepard and co-host of the Derek & Romaine show on OutQ, The Laramie Project, 10 Years Later – The Lasting Legacy of Matthew Shepard examines the impact the award-winning play-turned-film The Laramie Project has had on attitudes towards hate crimes with interviews from playwright Moises Kaufman and members of Tectonic Theater Company. The special also features an introduction by legendary journalist and SIRIUS XM host Barbara Walters and is narrated by critically-acclaimed actress Stockard Channing.
The Laramie Project, 10 Years Later – The Lasting Legacy of Matthew Shepard will re-air on OutQ, SIRIUS channel 109 and XM channel 98, on Friday, February 6 at 8PM ET.
If you have a car equipped with satellite radio, tune in to OutQ on XM channel 98 or Sirius channel 109. Tell them Gaywheels sent you!
