RadioACTive Pop! with Troy Williams of Equality Utah. For the last 10 years (since leaving KRCL), he’s led Utah’s premier LGBTQ civil rights organization (where, full disclosure, Olivia is the Public Outreach Director). This weekend, Equality Utah’s Annual Allies Gala features Andy Bell of Erasure. And we’ll talk to him about this and get his Erasure playlist, a band he’s been obsessed with since high school. 

  • Oct. 5: 2024 Equality Utah Allies Gala - Enchanted World, feat. Andy Bell of Erasure, 6:00 p.m. at Eccles Theater, 127 S. Main St., SLC. "Join us for the most anticipated LGBTQ fundraising event in Utah. The Allies Gala supports the Equality Utah 501(c)(4) work. We are Utah's leading LGBTQ political action & advocacy organization. Your ticket is a donation that helps us work for LGBTQ equality in the Beehive State. The dress theme is Forest Phantasia! Embrace the magic of the forest with greens and autumn tones like emerald, olive, and moss, accented by gold, copper, bronze, and forest blues. Want to elevate your look? Channel folklore fashion with outfits inspired by fairies, nymphs, and dryads, or draw inspiration from 'A Midsummer Night's Dream' and 'Into the Woods'!"
