At Radio Essentials, our aim is to bring you all the content you need under one roof.
In every episode of our monthly podcast, James Marriott chats to someone from the big wide world of radio to look at their career, how radio has changed, and what the future holds for the industry.
We'll bring you some amazing competitions - with fantastic prizes up for grabs - and exclusive giveaways for podcast listeners.
Plus we have a bit of fun along the way, playing the good old Celebrity Birthdays game, and pitting presenters against one another on Jock Against The Clock - who will come out top of our leaderboard?
