Radio consultant David Lloyd is booked in at the Burgh House & Hampstead Museum in London to present The Story of Radio next month.
The Story of Radio will happen on March 4th at 7.30pm, providing an alternative night of entertainment to the ARIAs which is scheduled for the same time.
David presents the radio podcast Conversations and hosts the weekly Radio Moments, looking back at this week in radio.
He began his career at Radio Trent in 1980, then went on to work in all sectors of the industry including the Radio Authority, commercial radio and the BBC before running Orion Media with Phil Riley.
He is currently a radio consultant, working with various stations, groups and industry bodies around the world. He also trains and lectures in presentation, production and compliance, supports research projects and licence applications, and is the Chairman of local TV channel, Notts TV.
See more details on the evening here.
It would be great if this was broadcast on the radio!
There’s No demand for this on radio. Podcast maybe.
Hear Hear – Dominic Cox
Enjoy being being kept upto date on this channel.
Yawn
Totally agree it’s yawn – RToday give to much time to this anorak.
But you have to agree, David has had a long and profitable career being an anorak.
Oh dear. One of the men that has destroyed radio in this country too.
Witness the rich history of this great medium from its earliest broadcasts, through the wartime years, a growing BBC, pirate disruption, local radio, commercial radio, consolidation, DAB, online – and look forward to audio’s exciting future.
So Mr Lloyd views the 60s Offshore Pirates as ‘disruption’?
The Pirates turned radio on its head. If radio history had been left to the BBC, we’d still be listening to Billy Cotton.
Today’s commercial radio model stinks, with 2 corporate companies operating a majority of the countries stations…
In reality we’ve gone full circle, where another revolution is required to shake up this terrible situation.
