Listen to the radio (but only if you want)

I don’t know if any of you are Nancy Griffith fans, but I’m sure those of you who are familiar with her nasal stylings will know her song ‘Listen To The Radio’. I’m going to be on the radio a wee bit over the next few days, and I couldn’t get that song out of my head, so I figured I’d inflict it on you guys.

For those of you who are interested in what I’m doing with URBN and what we’re going to be doing out in Beirut, tune in to The Right Hook with George Hook on Newstalk between 6.30 and 7pm on Monday evening (the 18th). I’ll be telling George about my time in Beirut, what we’re doing with URBN and generally shooting the breeze. I’m quite looking forward to doing this interview. Some of you will know that one of my first jobs in the media was working on Newstalk. I haven’t been in to see their fancy dan new offices yet, so it will be fun to go in and catch up with George and the team in there.

For those of you who simply can’t wait that long to hear from me, you can set your alarms for 9am on Saturday and Sunday morning. I’ll be on RTE 2FM with Ruth Scott to review the Saturday/Sunday papers and chat about life, the universe and everything.

Those of you outside Ireland should be able to tune into both stations using the ‘Listen Live’ buttons that are pretty prominent on both homepages. Hopefully I’ll get to stick up some MP3s before too long as well.

And for those of you who don’t know Nancy Griffith and the song I mentioned earlier – here you go.
