Always poking around for interesting English-language speech radio I came across Network Europe, which is described as ‘a partnership of the continent’s international broadcasters’ (not including the BBC, as far as I can tell). This show, which went out in January, is about Islam in European cities and, in particular, about the building of Mosques (MP3).
Steve Evans talks to religious people about business, including an American evangelist whose Dallas construction firm actually belongs to God (MP3). This is the Christmas Day edition of Business Daily on the World Service.
A blog of Radio 4. Not about Radio 4 but of it. We point to the bits we like, the bits you might have missed, the bits that someone might have sneakily recorded. Other speech radio from around the world will no doubt find its way here too.
Of course, one day this might turn into something else, maybe a new way of curating speech radio, or maybe it won’t.
Your hosts on this not very wild ride are Steve Bowbrick, Russell Davies, Dan Hill, Bobbie Johnson, Roo Reynolds and James Bridle. Drop us a line with your thoughts, unless you wish to complain about continuity announcers and their accents.
You might also enjoy the square-eyed sister site, Watchification.
