On this day in 1975, 2JJ – which later became Triple J – started broadcasting, exposing Australia to banned songs, swear words and radical politics. Those who were there reflect on the anarchy and the legacyFifty years since the launch of 2JJ, or Double Jay – the station that became Triple J in 1981 – radio’s former enfant terrible is now legacy media.

Could prison really be my salvation?Sixteen months ago, I somehow found myself standing bewildered in the dock of a magistrates court, at my own bail hearing for attempted armed robbery, wondering if I was really there or not. I had inexplicably gone into a shop with a toy gun at 7.30am, pointed it at the cashier and screamed at him for money while in a psychotic, delusional state. In my mind, I hadn’t committed a crime at all; I was merely acting out a scene from a film. Legally I had committed a Schedule 15 offence – a list that includes kidnapping, sex offences, manslaughter and soliciting murder, grave crimes that can result in a maximum of 14 years’ custody. Bail wasn’t even considered, as the magistrate believed I underestimated the seriousness of my crime, didn’t think I’d surrender to my bail conditions and saw me as a flight risk. I don’t know if he banged a gavel or not – I like...
