We were the pioneers…

We were the pioneers. We started the fire…ish

What podcasts are you listening to?

Back in the day we used to listen to pirate radio stations, in fact I even ran my own one at one point in around 1977, I wasn’t even a teenager. My brother had the gear but I had the idea, I would just talk to friends, chat, be stupid and say silly things, we weren’t hurting anyone but we were breaking the law.

We were rebels.

Fast forward to 2025 and people are doing exactly the same but now it’s legal, anyone can do it and that’s where I lose interest. They call them podcasts.

I really can say I’ve been there before, done it, got the tee shirt and been a pioneer in the podcast world.

I did get caught broadcasting back in the mid 80s when we had a setup on a large tower block in the Garston area of Watford. Just a slap on the wrist though as we were just all youngsters experimenting with radio.

But the straight answer is, no I don’t listen to podcasts, after all these years I still remain committed to good old fashioned radio programming.

I’m just an old fart I guess.

Have a super day.
