  • 12:00–14:00
    Yan's Bangers
    Presented by myself, it's a light-hearted trip in the DeLorean through the 80s and 90s, picking only the best (and sometimes worst) music that the two decades had to offer. With a different featured album every time, I talk about the bands, the history of the tracks, and any fun facts that spring to mind. Full of nostalgia, I also cover the most horrific tracks from that time in my "Maximum Cheese" section. I also have a trivia quiz based on popular culture from the 80s and 90s. Anyone who loves a giggle and holds giant shoulder pads in their memory with fondness will love it. The aim? To leave people wanting to rush out, buy a Soda Stream, a Sinclair C-5 and a Remington Fuzz-away, and dig out their neon leg-warmers.
    Yan's Bangers
  • 14:00–16:00
    The Vibe Station
    Amelie and Darcie’s radio show is a carefully curated mix of soft pop, indie, and pop music, where they share their favorite and current tracks. More than just a playlist, the show dives into the stories and emotions behind the songs, giving listeners insight into their musical choices. Aimed at young people and anyone who loves music—especially soft, vibey, or rebellious sounds—the show creates an atmosphere that’s both engaging and immersive. With their unique personalities and strong, independent energy, Amelie and Darcie bring a fresh and authentic voice to the airwaves.
