I’d never thought myself to be a DJ, until I met Kirsty. Known as ‘The Girl’ she was a DJ on a London pirate radio station. She had her own studio, she was professional, and when she asked me to co-host her weekly show with her, I couldn’t believe it! This is the story of ‘The Girl’, pirate radio, the studio, the music, the beer, the vodka… and me. Please follow me to keep up with the latest podcasts.

Radio and television was very different in the 50s and 60s. There was one TV channel in the UK, the BBC. There were three BBC stations on long and medium wave - news, classical music and light music. So, the youngsters flocked to Radio Luxembourg on 208. But that was only available at night. Then, the pirates arrived, Independent Television arrived... ... and things changed dramatically.
