Take a listen. The Mosen Explosion has a fresh coat of paint

Still going strong after well over 20 years on the jolly old Interweb, the Mosen Explosion is back for another year with a face lift. Now all I need is to get a face lift of my own!

Deep Dive pays tribute to Meatloaf

I was saddened to learn of the death of Meatloaf last week at the age of 74. His voice range and power were amazing, and his Bat Out Of Hell album was outstanding. Deep Dive will feature the programme on him made last week as a tribute, as a last encore programme before the Australian holidays end for me.

Tune in at 4 PM Monday Eastern, which is 8 AM in eastern Australia. Or at 6 AM Eastern Wednesday, which is 10 PM in eastern Australia.

Deep dive, where we focus on one artist for one hour, on mushroom FM, home of the fun guys.

It's Robby Burns and All Things Scottish, this Week on Come by the Hills!

Yes, it's almost that time of January again, time to dust off the kilts and dig into the Haggis and celebrate the man whose poetry and song have made Scotland famous the world over. Yes, it's Robby Burns Day on January 25, so we're doing our usual celebrations this week on Come by the Hills. Known as the peasant poet, Robert Burns wrote poetry about love, nature, politics and many other aspects of Scottish life as he knew it.

The return of Damo's All Day Breakfast for 2022.

Hi.

Well after a rather long and relaxing summer break, I'm back with Damo's All Day Breakfast for 2022.

this week, in addition to the usual array of Aussie and Kiwi music, I'm reviewing my latest toy. It's a device called a Network Radio, and it's basically the ham radio you have when you haven't got a ham radio, or, for that matter, a ham license. To find out what I'm on about, you'll need to tune in.

From The Early Years to Easy Street

Hi, I’m Scott Best, and I’m honoured to be looking after Steve Cutway’s time slot while he’s away. The fun starts this Saturday!

I’m hosting a new show called Easy Street. If you like The Early Years, I think you’ll enjoy my show as well. I’ll be playing easy listening favourites from the 50s, 60s and 70s, along with standards from the Great American Songbook, by classic and contemporary artists. I’ll also throw in some big band and instrumental tunes for good measure.
