Just letting you know there’s a fabulous audio interview just released on Planet Maynard!
You can access the podcast HERE.
"DJ Mark Alsop has been a favourite DJ across Australia for 36 years. He started in Oxford Street, Sydney and is a valued member of the GLBT community. In this show he has some stories, dirt and music to share. So listen up and meet his dog, Boo Boo. 
(Boo Boo isn’t spoilt. He’s just well looked after).
Coming to you from Mark’s undisclosed location, it’s a podcast full of tales you might not have heard and just some of the music Mark loves. We perhaps answer that burning social issue; What is the gayest track ever? With decades of experience in the Sydney DJ box, here’s sure fire advice on the one thing NEVER to do in a club: Don’t type your request out in size five font on your phone that only a fifteen year old can read, then wave it around in front of the DJ booth like a monkey…….”
and theres loads more to be revealed LOL
Cheers
Mark
