These are 'edited highlights' from October 5th, 2008 show on Liverpool's City Talk http://www.citytalk.fm/article.asp?id=555043.

...on the demise of UK commercial radio, and the end of the world as we know it?

...in which I try and join in Australia's new year's celebrations '08 (10 hours ahead of the UK:  we have relatives in Brisbane so it seemed like a good idea to join in a trans-global fest' and hear what they were listening to) but it turns out to be slightly underwhelming...
