His voice broke when he was a young teenager when he managed to blag his way in to landing his own radio show at his local station Kiss106 just outside Newry aged just 15!<\/p>\n<p>Since then he&#8217;s worked in some big stations and small stations (and petrol stations) across the UK &amp; Ireland including Citybeat and Blast106 here in Belfast, and has broadcast on stations in Europe and the USA. He&#8217;s responsible for launching and relaunching some local radio stations in Belfast (Blast106), Manchester (Your FM), Blast Digital (Glasgow and Manchester) and more.<\/p>\n<p>Some of his career highlights to date have been interviewing Brendan Rodgers in an actual broom cupboard for Northern Ireland Hospice, having a blazing row with Sean Kingston live on air on his breakfast show on Northern Sound in the Republic of Ireland, and having Hugo Duncan steal his sausage (careful now) during a festival gig in Warrenpoint.<\/p>\n<p>Suppose we should also mention that he&#8217;s responsible for launching Juice Radio too &#8211; if you don&#8217;t like the station, blame him.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"menu_order":0,"template":"","class_list":["post-12981","members","type-members","status-publish","hentry","membertype-presenter"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/178-79-129-31.ip.linodeusercontent.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/members\/12981","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/178-79-129-31.ip.linodeusercontent.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/members"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/178-79-129-31.ip.linodeusercontent.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/members"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/178-79-129-31.ip.linodeusercontent.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/members\/12981\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":12983,"href":"https:\/\/178-79-129-31.ip.linodeusercontent.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/members\/12981\/revisions\/12983"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/178-79-129-31.ip.linodeusercontent.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=12981"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
