Venus Envy turned 19 on June 23! Tonight, we’re headed back to the early aughts to explore the sonic roots of this little radio show. There is some folk, a few female-fronted rock bands and some trio hop. And it was pretty q***r from the jump, though the show has definitely gotten more q***r over the years (and more gender diverse!) umfm.com to catch it live from 8-9pm or to stream the episode after!

On tonight’s episode of Venus Envy, we’re doing something a little different. Part bedtime story, part jukebox musical, tonight’s show spins a tale of a young woman who finds herself and then loses herself in order to find herself again. Take a generous amount of Greek mythology, throw in some familiar archetypes, lyrical songwriting, and powerhouse vocals, and you’ve got a tale fit for a Queen (of the underworld.) Come join Persephone in the Garden from 8-9pm, only on 101.5 UMFM! umfm.com or 101.5 FM in Winnipeg

This was the scene last night when I was recording tonight’s episode of .umfm - dog on one side, cat on the other. Tonight, we dig in to some of my favourite tracks from the year, and sign off until 2023. Join us (with your pets!) from 8-9pm on

The q***r community is holding the weight of a lot of emotions this week. The anti-2SLGBTQ+ rhetoric is loud. Violent words become violent acts.

But I believe that we have more allies than enemies.

So tonight, for the 60 minutes we have together on .umfm let’s lean into the strength and resilience of the 2SLGBTQ+ community. I’ve pulled together 14 tracks from q***r bands and musicians. Join us: 8-9pm on umfm.com

Tonight! Held over from last week, a full hour of Riot Grrrl! Music from the bands that started it all, plus music by the bands they inspired from the early 90s until today. 8-9pm on .umfm!

“A movement formed by a handful of girls who felt empowered, who were angry, hilarious, and extreme through and for each other. Built on the floors of strangers' living rooms, tops of Xerox machines, snail mail, word of mouth and mixtapes, riot grrrl reinvented punk.” -Beth Ditto

Tonight’s episode of Venus Envy is all about villains! Those characters you love, or love to hate. In stories, female villains are often afforded more autonomy than other female characters. They don’t have to play by the rules. They know what they want, and they’re not afraid to go out and get it. They have their own damn castles and most of all, they have POWER. Perhaps that’s why we like them so much? Tune in TONIGHT, 8-9pm on 101.5 FM or umfm.com for a full hour of music inspired by those who are a little bit wicked.
