Morgan Collins presents themed shows drawn from a wide range of music – rock, jazz, country, indie, ambient, chamber, and trip hop.

The Phoenix Love Radio Show

The Phoenix Love Radio Show

I’m a recording artist with very wide-ranging musical tastes. I like to dig out lesser-known songs from both under the radar and established artists, with a focus on finely-crafted pop, a sprinkling of classic reggae and folk, and a soupçon of psychedelia and electronica.

The Respect Show

The Respect Show

Bully, Paul Giblin, Helen Connole and Paul Barnes take turns to present the show. The music is an eclectic mix of many styles from all over the world. The show aims to complement the annual Exeter Respect festival and celebrate diversity in the area and in the wider world.

Classical Journey

Luch Càise-Dearg presents baroque, classical, romantic and modern music performed by solo artists, chamber ensembles, orchestras and choirs. Most recordings are made by local artists, many of whom discuss their work and perform live on the programme.

The Good, the Bad and the Ugly Show

The Good, the Bad and the Ugly Show

The Electric Tortoise and Strangle Jim present a weekly instalment of the weird and wonderful, sometimes horrifying (but never boring) music of almost every variety known or unknown!

Anti-Telly Time

Anti-Telly Time

With Chee. The main objective of Anti-Telly Time is to give listeners a giggle and a smile. There’s music from local bands through to obscure sounds, and music that makes you dance against your will. Sometimes spoken-word and other non-music delights will pop up, with guests on occasion. It’s a party and you’re invited.

The CoLab Radio Show

The CoLab Radio Show

With John Stammers. The CoLab Radio Show explores the work of the community and voluntary sector in Exeter, highlighting the projects and people whose passion is improving lives and promoting positive change.

The Miscellany Show

The Miscellany Show

Presented by DJ John M. I play a mixture of music and have studio sessions, interviews and spoken word. I talk about the music, chat with guests, and drop in other random general factoids! I play music to soothe and rock, to relax and hype, the unusual and usual.

The Coming

The Coming

Greg Gould (the Ghoulish Groover) presents breakbeats and EDM. It’s for anyone who loves music. I’d like to captivate my audience.

Let’s Have a Party

Brought to you by Gordon. There are only two types of music, good and bad, I play the good kind.

We are Rob and Tom. Mind the Gap is a show which could include pretty much anything and everything. We would like to believe that if we are having fun then hopefully you will too!
