Robin Byrd pioneered NYC public access with her cult sex-positive call-in show. Now the larger-than-life 70-year-old champion of free speech, queer visibility, and safe sex reflects on her unique legacy and her hidden, decades-long marriage behind the scenes.



Robin Byrd herself is the whole show here, and people are loving her — she’s a total force, and this documentary about her life and cult public-access legacy is a genuine crowd-pleaser. The story of her hidden marriage and her fight for free speech and queer visibility is called both fascinating and truly original. A few folks thought the pacing dragged a bit, but that’s a minor note in a film that’s otherwise getting nothing but praise for its humor and heart.
