Get Frank

Today was my first day on the phones on the Dom King show. I had a caller telling me that the streetlamps in his road had been left on for three months, a man who wanted to know the Cray Wanderers result and a lovely seventy year old lady called Betty who thought Al Pacino [...]

So I was covering an event last night and something happened that has not happened before. I felt a bit of an outcast. I mean, I’ve felt like one before but that can be due to my own wierdness, or ‘quirks’ as kind people call them.  Yesterday I felt that it was because I’m female.  [...]

Today was like my starter day for the radio. I basically shadowed Steve the producer and learnt more about how the show operates etc… On monday I’ll actually be answering phones and calling guests etc etc… gulp! After the show I went up to the newsroom to do some Blast type stuff/email etc etc when [...]

Made this video for the BBC Blast site…but its a bit too long so I’ve stuck it on here instead…apologies for the cheesy intro but I’ve gotta get some practice in eh?!

So this weekend I popped over to Merton Farm in Canterbury, Kent to cover Lounge on the farm festival for BBC Kent. The festival is a well kept secret, not marketed widely and an event that largely relies on word of mouth…but after the weekend there I believe that word will spread like wildfire. The [...]

…no not literally! Tomorrow (at 9am no less) I’m interviewing Ammo of Punch records so I’m currently doing research…or at least I will once I’ve finished fiddling with clothes/my room/music. I’m meant to be going out tonight but that means I need to pack for Kent (Lounge on the farm festival this weekend for BBC [...]

Ahhhhhh! So excited! I won the Oxfam 4Talent glaso comp where you had to send a reply to Oxfam 4Talent’s twitter ‘What gets your knickers in a twist’… I said ‘Interviewers asking artists who they’re doing, not what they’re doing.’ And it worked!!!
