AM vs. FM

28th May 2013

While everyone else was watching Arrested Development, I spent the Bank Holiday weekend on BBC Radio Wales. In fact, I was on...

And presenting the regular Sunday morning show too

Because it was a bank holiday weekend we got away with absolutely loads - From pretending it was 2052 to letting Ben read the Travel News. Incredibly, we were also allowed to play with the transmitter switches and broadcast different versions of a sketch on AM and FM.

Now, if you caught it live, chances are you only heard one version, but BBC Radio Wales have kindly put the two different versions online. So this is my attempt at covering the BBC's religious affairs show All Things Considered on FM...


While this is what went out at the same time on AM...



I hope I've got them the right way round. 

BBC Radio Wales - Saturday Afternoons

17th May 2013

Nadia Kamil and I have begun a short stint on BBC Radio Wales, presenting a jam-packed Saturday afternoon show. The first one was last week  so we've got two more to go. You'll find them on the BBC Radio Wales website for a week after they are broadcast.

In fact, this link should take you to the most recent Saturday afternoon and Sunday morning shows.


And then when you've done that, why not check out the most recent episode of Social Club FM.

Summer Update

30th April 2013


Social Club FM

Chris Corcoran and Elis James

Over the last couple of months, I've been busy co-writing the second series of Social Club FM, which started on Friday at 6.30pm on BBC Radio Wales. 

That's the slot where you'll find it for five more weeks and each episode will also be available on iPlayer, so there's no excuse not to catch it. 

(Typing this, I've just realized that this week, SCFM will clash with an episode of The News Quiz I will have written on - But that's exactly what Podcasts are for). 

Saturday AND Sunday Shows - BBC Radio Wales
I'm still presenting the Sunday Morning Show on BBC Radio Wales so there's almost always an edition on iPlayer... And even if there isn't, there are clips here (Which I promise we'll get round to updating soon!)  

With the summer approaching, and considerably less sport on the radio, I'll also be doing three Saturday afternoon shows for the station starting on 11th May... I believe I'll be on from 4 till 6.30pm, meaning I go into the repeat of Social Club FM, so I'll probably treat it as a two-and-a-half-hour build-up to that.

XFM Breakfast Show with Jon Holmes
I continue to write jokes, silly news stories and prepare the occasional cut-up for Jon Holmes' breakfast show on XFM London

You can listen to the show from 6am every weekday morning on 104.9FM in London, on DAB, on Sky and Virgin Media, through the XFM app, online and no doubt through a myriad of ways I've forgotten. 

And if you miss it, you can always download the weekly podcast
