Sixth SM rehash of cuddly, yet irritating, non-alcoholic but award-winning radio producer/journo/presenter, VO and sports junkie - part-Welsh, part-Granadalander. Still to be taken. Views wholly owned.
I don’t do much in the way of live radio these days, but when I do…I’m positively sub-par at it.

Me as a Bluesky therapist.

And all this was £1.70 less than a burger from the Christmas market.

This is what Christmas is all about.

Inflatables in foam.

Thursday: Sky Sports Halo launched.
Friday: Production paused after backlash
Saturday: Sky Sports Halo closed.

Somebody really did get fired for that blunder.

Noson arbennig iawn yn joio cyngerdd i ddathlu (ac mae dathlu yn gair bwysig) 90 mlynedd o BBC Bangor.

A very special evening enjoying the BBC NOW in concert to celebrate - and that was the key word - 90 years of the Beeb in Bangor.

Diolch, Bryn Meirion.

Hmmm. Something’s up at Gresford Athletic.

Not one but six resignations in a day (including the manager)

Sounds like a lot of discontent as well.

(though granted the club is currently third bottom in the Cymru North)

Pardon me, someone else had a crack at it, too.

It took one man alone to stand up to Yorkshire Television.

In the style of someone else's choosing, admittedly.

Ar yr radio. Yn Gymraeg. Toc wedi saith.
On the radio. In Welsh. A bit after seven.

Missed out on a Gwenno gig for this, too. Damn.

John Sparkes' inexplicible Saturday night TV debut, part two.

Featuring a wasp.
October 29, 2025 at 8:14 PM
From the file marked 'inexplicible John Sparkes cameos on Saturday night TV'.

I do believe this was actually his telly debut, as well.

A very happy night.

You probably best know me as a Bro’er - but proud to be part of the MonFM team which clinched Gold - and likewise, the GTFM crew who won bronze - for OB of the Year at the Community Radio Awards tonight.

Can’t help but help, that’s me.

This one’s for you, Tony.

A word from the one and only @stephaniehirst.bsky.social on the importance of community radio.

In Bradford for the annual #UKCRNConnect conference.

Follow @ukcrn.bsky.social on socials for a taste of what’s happening throughout the day.

Bradford, I’m ‘ere.

Here we are. Bit too late for the Studios Tour but it’ll do.

I’m not sure whether Border’s graphic designers were kidding when they came up with this (genuine) prodcap
September 21, 2025 at 8:11 PM
I turned mine off. No problem.

I will only switch it on if they switch to the siren used by Fishguard Police.

Stumbling round Gotham City aka Liverpool.

All go today and into tonight as well.

Back on Bro Radio with #YNewydd after the news at 7 (read by me obviously!) with a lookahead to the @welshmusicprize.bsky.social, a double play from @aniglass.bsky.social and much more!

Joiwch y miwsig, joiwch Y Newydd…heno toc wedi 7 ar Radio Bro.
September 4, 2025 at 5:09 PM
Might as well let you have a few prod caps, too.

I know I’m a bit of a telly anorak but I’d usually hold back from posting random screengrabs of idents.

But it’s Saturday night and I fancy letting my H-air down a bit.
