Dave interviews Michail Takach of the Wisconsin LGBTQ History Project. Dave and Michael delve into the history and culture of the 18+ LGBTQ night club scene that began in the late 1980’s as Wisconsin transitioned from an 18 to 21 year old drinking age. The lifestyle, interactions and the safe places for LGBTQ youth, in clubs like Park Avenue, The Option, Faces Stage II or Club Maryland are at the center of Takach’s research. This is another must listen; full of history, information and Dave’s ability to connect history to the present.
