There are moments in some people’s career where they’re riding on the crest of a wave and an exciting new challenge comes along and tempts them away with promises that are too good to say no to.

Then… see above.

Adam Cole is a stalwart of the Manchester radio scene and has been for a very long time. In fact, he’s worked at every major station in the market there, and at one notable example FOUR times.

His Galaxy breakfast show was legendary, hugely successful and multi award-winning.

And it’s probably his success there that set the scene for what was to come.

In this episode we find out why he got sacked from hospital radio, which legend he eagerly got CDs out for before his breakfast show, and hear about a wind up call that went a bit too well.

This is the first of two episodes with Adam – look out for the second on this feed very soon.

 

Adam’s current project is the spiky upstart in the MCR radio market, and it’s rather good. Have a listen: https://www.thisisthebuzz.com/
