You can listen to 'Machin Magic in the Morning' below, which was a radio show I was on as part of Planet Radio Huddersfield. Planet Radio was the final assignment for my Digital Radio Module and involved both the Music Journalists and Broadcast Journalists working together efficiently to run the station. From collating the news stories and the preparation of radio packages for the bulletins, to the design of the website and social media pages as well as the preparation that went into the shows - it was a lot of work but it went incredibly well!
My role was as one of the Deputy Station Managers, but my friend Sam, who had one of the morning slots with 'Machin Magic in the Morning', asked me to be a guest on his last show. I enjoyed it immensely and far more than I anticipated as I was so nervous. Even though I'd already been on the radio before with my own show on Radio Hudd (University of Huddersfield's Radio Station) from January this year until the end of term I did this alone, so it was great to be on Sam's show as it's easy to build a rapport and bounce off someone else rather than constantly believing that you're just talking to yourself, with someone else you're having too much fun to even think about that!
Planet Radio was on air from 30th April up until 6th May from 10am - 4pm each day. Sam's last show was on at 10am on Saturday 5th May - so I do apologise if I do sound a tad sleepy! Finally, listen out for tracks from Local Natives, The Smiths, Eugene McGuinness and Deaf Havana, as well as chat about our differing views on music festivals and even Bob Marley - enjoy! :)
