***ANNOUNCEMENT***
If you tuned into this Monday’s show (why wouldn’t you have??) then you would’ve heard that it is with a heavy heart that we must announce the end of Ostentatious Radio.
Make sure to tune into the LAST EVER SHOW on Monday, 18th September, at 2pm!
We have been a part of the Nova Radio North East 102.5fm schedule on Monday afternoons for two years now but, unfortunately, our time on the station has come to a close. This is because our host, Andrew, is moving onto pastures new down in London and will unfortunately be unable to commit to broadcasting duties in the North East.
We want to say that we have had so much fun broadcasting to you all over the past couple of years and when we started out with our first show in July 2021 with Andrew and former co-host Craig, we never would’ve thought we would’ve made it to the 2 year mark.
We want to thank Nova Radio for being so supportive to us during our time on the station. A special thank you too to Dean Wears who trained us up at the very start and allowed us to express ourselves and explore different facets of local radio.
Community radio and local radio means so much to so many people and it really is a fantastic cause. Please keep on supporting and listening to Nova Radio North East. It’s an amazing station with a wide variety of talent and broadcasters on offer.
For ourselves, it’s nearly goodbye (we’ll save all that stuff for the final show so don’t get your tissues out just yet.…unless you’ve got Hayfever in which we’d also recommend robust eye drops too). We may return in some guise later on down the road but for now it has been an amazing experience and thank you so much to anybody that has tuned in live, listened to any of the catch-up shows or messaged us during the show and engaged with any of the weird and wonderful content we’ve provided on our shows. (Remember National High Five Day everybody???)
That Radio studio can be a lonely place at times so any of your contributions keeps us going.
It’s been a pleasure. And please tune into our final ever show on Monday, 18th September, 2-4pm! (Details on the show to be posted soon)
Xx
