95bFM picks
Radio Bosom was born in 1969 as a capping stunt. It was set up in a boat (which ran aground in Auckland's Waitemata harbour) to broadcast illegally on speakers around the Auckland University student union. Three decades later 95bFM is a sizzling casserole of music, news and views. And fucking funny ads. These are the gigs that the Bosom recommends.
