Made for DCTV by broadcast historian Eddie Bohan this is Dublin Pirate Days. Episodes 1 & 5 are missing in action but I hope to source them. There is some great content here, but do excuse the audio quality which suffered in the production budget.

Ronan Keating goes to Magic Breakfast Show

in just over a week’s time Ronan Keating will begin co presenting the breakfast show on Magic FM with fellow host Harriet Scott. Starts September 4th across the UK.

Ronan’s best holiday trip ever? The Maldives “The Ocean below you and these fishes and creatures, just different form the way I was born and raised”.

I think Bayside in Dublin isn’t so far from the Irish Sea and the Blue Lagoon Ronan! (but it isn’t the Maldives). Next ESPN will send a news crew to Dublin 13 looking for the ghetto.

Ronan’s previous radio hosting experience was in June 2015 filling in for the summer on Magic. He is an accomplished presenter on TV and once co presented the Eurovision Song Contest to hundreds of millions of people worldwide.

first all women radio station in the world

When Sam Phillips sold Elvis’ contract in 1955 he used the money to start an all girl radio station in Memphis, TN. Set in a pink, plush studio in the nations’ third Holiday Inn, it was a novelty—but not for long. He hired models, beauty queens, actresses, telephone operators. Some were young mothers who just needed a job. WHER was the first radio station to feature women as more than novelties and sidekicks. The WHER girls were broadcasting pioneers.

How Inclusive Is Community Media, Really?

from radiosurvivor.com
Sally Kane, CEO of the National Federation Community Broadcasters, has a question for community media: How inclusive are we, really? That’s the jumping off point for our conversation with Sally and her colleague Ernesto Aguilar, as they report back from the NFCB 2017 Conference, held in Denver, CO July 17 – 19. We discuss the value of focusing on what’s working in community media, as opposed to what’s not, creating a platform for true community voices, and embracing young generations of new community media leaders.
