  • Sean Goldsmith
    Jul 1 2022

    There aren't many local breakfast shows which have owned their airwaves in the way Sean and Becky did on Peak in Chesterfield, back in the day...

    And it's a pleasure to welcome Sean Goldsmith to the podcast to discuss his career including those glory days on Peak.

    We also discuss Sean's apparent 'luck' when it comes to getting those all important breaks, his diagnosis with aspergers in the last few years, and what his back-up career has long been should the radio world go pop.

    How will he do in the birthday game and Jock Around the Clock? Hit play to find out.

  • Richard Allinson
    Jun 1 2022

    Well it is the jubilee after all, so it feels right to have radio royalty on June's podcast, as we welcome Richard Allinson.

    Capital to Radio 2 to Magic and Greatest Hits Radio - Richard's career spans basically the biggest stations and brands in the radio world.

    He talks us through the early days including how a new DJ not turning up at his university student radio station set things in motion.

    We talk through a remarkable 17 years on Capital and the jump onto Radio 2, as well as how things have changed over those years.

    And of course, we can't let Richard go without trying to make him look a complete idiot in Jock Against The Clock. Find out how he gets in our utterly ridiculous competition.

    One quick thing to point out before you listen - you might hear a reference to John Stalker; he was Deputy Commissioner of Greater Manchester Police, not the Met.
