DIVA: 2014

DIVA Media Group Ltd
About this episode

DIVA magazine turns 30 this year and to celebrate we're covering those 30 glorious years, in 30 days throughout April.


Today we're delving deep into the DIVA archive of the year 2014.


And seeing as it's Sunday, stay with us a little longer because I want to read you one of my favourite articles of the last seven years...


"The actor behind Bette Porter, The L Word's alpha female, talks to her friend Rachel Shelley about her book, L Word nostalgia and her need for privacy."



Have you heard our top-rated ep? TheLWordGenQ with Rachel Shelley

Edited and produced by Rachel Shelley with additional editing, producing and knock-out audiogram awesomeness by Ella Gauci.


With love and support from TeamDIVA
