    14 Years of Very Loose Women

    14 Years of Very Loose Women

    Very Loose Women started on student radio in 2006. In 2013 it started on Resonance and has since had a growing number of participant producers and has experimented with format too. The original 4 presenters, as well as three of the current producers, share their thoughts on what the show is and has been.
    Show idea by Anna Rose. Edit and music by Leo.
    We are so proud of what we've created and thankful to ResonanceFM for welcoming us into their space.
    We will still be podcasting though more sporadically.

Artful Tech ,

Smart, funny, risque

I’ve been listening to VLW for a while, and always enjoy tuning in. As well as taking a novel, fun approach to some of the more base human characteristics, the team have also managed to bring in an impressive line-up of guests; from writers to musicians to political protestors. Keep it up!
