Where do you start?

Red and I love radio. We started off with "The Nathan and Red Show" podcasts on the Internet in 2006. Then, when I found out about a local radio station, GoFM, we transferred our show there, broadcasting every, well most, well actually more like every now and then, Saturday mornings, 10-12. That was all well and good, until we realised that no one actually listened. Apart from mum. With all due respect to mum, we wanted to set our sights a little higher. Like nana as well, but she couldn't get us because she doesn't live in Titirangi and GoFM is only a Low Powered FM station with limited range.

The problem with most other radio stations is that they are difficult to get to. Red is in a wheelchair and this makes it difficult to get up the stairs that are inevitably the only way to get to most radio stations in Auckland. So it got him thinking, why don't we just start our own radio station in Kingsland, where we both live.

Watch this space!
