This is the story of the man whose wind-up calls were to set him up for becoming a nationally known broadcaster. 

In this hour of Radiomoments ‘Conversations’, Steve Penk tells of his nervous beginnings at a young Piccadilly Radio in Manchester, and of the last-minute negotiations as he chose his first London gig. He relates the full story of the famous Tony Blair wind-up call; and of how he picked up the reins painfully from Chris Evans at Virgin.

Steve also opens up about radio ownership and the Revolution experience – and about his life beyond in creating the Wind Up Channel and Radio Dead.

In his own words – this is the Steve Penk story.
