Ditchy and Salty back together for podcast

Former Real Radio North West breakfast duo Ditchy and Salty are teaming up to do a weekly podcast together.

It comes after they were moved to separate overnight shows on the station after being told last month that their time on the station’s breakfast show was over.

Since their departure from breakfast a number of Facebook groups have been set up calling for them to be reinstated on the show.

Now, a new website from the pair says they will be doing a weekly free downloadable podcast.

Ditchy – real name David Ditchfield – previously worked at stations including Key 103, Radio Aire and Real Radio Yorkshire before joining Century FM breakfast’s Paul Salt in 2008.

The duo said in a statement on their website: “We enjoy working together and whilst that no longer seems an option at the minute we had a chat in the pub last week and after a month apart felt we wanted to repay you for all the support you continue to give and at the same time highlight to prospective employers that we will soon be on the open market (for a job!!) although we may have to work on one soon!

“We feel the simplest way of achieving both is to start producing a weekly free downloadable podcast that you will be able to listen to whenever you want!! It’s the best we can do at the minute and we hope you will enjoy it.”
