As you may know, every year, I host a live broadcast to celebrate the end of the current year and the arrival of a new one, which comes first to New Zealand. I’ll be doing that once again this year at 9 PM on new year’s eve in New Zealand, which equates to 3 AM Eastern, and 8 AM in the UK on the morning of 31 December. This year though, it’s even more special.

On that day, it will be 25 years ago that I hosted my first live Internet broadcast, using a brand new technology called SHOUTcast.

It’s hard for me to total up the thousands of hours of radio I have done over the last 25 years. I’ve had the pleasure of working with a great many people, and helped many to get started in the field of Internet broadcasting. It has been an honour to have founded MBSFM, ACB radio, The Minx, the Mosen Channel and of course Mushroom Fm, and to broadcast on others including Big Planet Radio, Shellworld Radio and The Legend.

From hosting Blind Line, the first ever global call-in show exclusively for the blind community, to starting main Menu, the first global blindness tech show that allowed end-users to create grass roots tech demos for the blind community long before podcasting was a thing, there has been plenty of new ground broken.

It’s been a privilege to be a part of many special events, countdowns, lockdowns and benefit concerts, as well as just doing regular shows that have connected me with some awesome listeners, some of whom have been listening since the very beginning.

So while keeping the party going, this year I’ll be sharing some memories via old promos, jingles and snippets from the last 25 years.

This would have all been utterly pointless if it weren’t for the listeners. So, if you have any reflections on the memories we’ve made together over the last 25 years, I would love to get them. Read more about how to share your memories here. https://mushroomfm.com/node/3500
