Happy birthday Marty!
31/03/2026 | 55 mins.
It’s Marty’s turn this week to sit back and be pampered for his birthday. Yes, for this week’s play list, Venetia has combed the music of the 1970s to pick tracks she thinks Marty will love. Or at least tracks from artists that she knows he loves, even if the tracks themselves might be slightly left field. And because we are thrifty, here at Living in the 70s, we are doing a bit of regifting and sharing the songs with you. Happy birthday!

Oh no, it’s the ‘m’ word

This week we’re bringing attention to World Water Day, which happens every year on March 22 to highlight the importance of acess to fresh, life sustaining water. So all our tracks this show have something to do with water – tears, streams, rivers, harbours and all things generally watery. We’re getting damp, wet and yes, a even a little bit moist. Splish splash.

A playlist for Venetia
16/03/2026 | 55 mins.
Happy birthday Venetia! Yes, it’s Venetia’s birthday and to celebrate the occasion, Marty has put together a playlist of some of her favourite Seventies tracks. Hopefully some of them are your favourites too.

All women, all good
09/03/2026 | 55 mins.
It’s international women’s day! It’s only fitting, then, that this week all our tracks are from women musicians from the Seventies. Sisters were doing it for themselves, and often being quite ground breaking as they did it. Maybe because they had to be so much better to even get a foot in the door. As we know, it takes pressure to create diamonds. And this week’s playlist truly sparkles. Enjoy.

Happy Mardi Gras!
02/03/2026 | 55 mins.
Show broadcast March 01 2026

It’s been pride season in Australia, with Midsumma in Melbourne and Mardi Gras in Sydney. So, in celebration of all things LGBTIQA+, on this week’s show we are featuring queer artists from the Seventies. All of our tracks are performed by at least one person from the community and there were probably many more queer folk who produced, engineered, managed, roadied and carried out many of the other roles that kept artists working and produced all those fantastic records we love so much. These are just some of the people we know about.

About Living in the 70s

Were you born in the Seventies? Join us for the sounds of the 70s every Saturday morning. Martin and Venetia will take you to the decade of denim flares, burnt orange kitchen bench tops and the birth of disco and glam rock! Each week we’ll have a 70’s theme that we’ll explore, such as songs from disaster movies, movement anthems, one hit wonders, daggy duets, funky numbers, and disco tracks that steamed up the dance floor in many an LGBTI venue, to name just a few. The 70s produced some amazing music and we’re here to make sure that music is shared and never lost. NOTE: Due to music licencing requirements this podcast is unavailable outside of Australia.
