Great news! Well done to the whole team, it's a much deserved reward for producing some brilliant radio in the last year. It's great to work with people whose enthusiasm doesn't waver when they're working weekends, Christmas Day, late at night or before dawn.

It is with deep sadness that we announce the passing of Andy Rourke after a lengthy illness with pancreatic cancer. Andy will be remembered as a kind and beautiful soul by those who knew him and as a supremely gifted musician by music fans.  We request privacy at this sad time

The legendary origin of the phrase "chancing your arm" came from Dublin in 1492. The Butlers of Ormonde and the FitzGeralds of Kildare were involved in a violent land feud. The Butlers retreated to the sanctuary of St Patrick's Cathedral, with the FitzGeralds in hot pursuit.

We definitely do not talk enough about the insane depopulation of Eastern Europe since 1990. Wars, aging, and emigration. In 1990, Ukraine & Turkey were even. Turkey is now double Ukraine's pop. For many countries this depopulation literally surpasses the death tolls of WWII.
