Well I gotta admit, I didn’t see this one coming. A global name in the world of journalism is joining a local radio station. I’ll admit, I will be very interested to see what shows he does and what he brings to them.

Possibly the two shows that he'll be doing.

It is a great station that I love listening to @goldmineradio - fantastic musical breadth. I look forward to them running The Vinyl Countdown and Best Disco In Town - all on #vinyl from November 7th. https://t.co/5yLAg33PnE

Looks like we also know when the shows are going to air as well...

Thank you, Andrew. They should be fun. Friday nights at 7pm and Saturday nights at 8pm for The Best Disco In Town and Sundays at 6pm for The Vinyl Countdown. Join us for the warm, crackly sound of records! #vinyl @goldmineradio https://t.co/lCfcSLQh0a

We have former Sky News presenter Stefanie (Steffi) Callister and former Blue Peter presenter Liz Barker on Cambridge 105 Radio, so its not unheard of.
