URY

I have recently discovered a cool little student radio station called URY short for University Radio York.

URY do quite a lot of good shows, one of which is the evening selection with the source at six. The show each day has different presenters on, and each have there own broadcasting style, and then at 6'O Clock there is the news, named the source at six.
One of my favourite shows is The Magic Roundabout, with the funny duo Chris Donald and Andy O'Reilly who both make the show a hilarious mash-up of talk and music. The show is aired on Mondays at 11pm.


Another good thing about the station is the music played is vary varied, so one moment you will have some pop rock and then up next we have some indie acoustic. The station broadcasts in York, and at the moment York Uni, seems to have almost anything to broadcast with, for example YSTV, the student TV station, that I am sorry to say doesn't really please me. The programs aren't really very well put together and the sets and people they have on sound like cardboard. But URY is completely different.



The style is always varied, so you will always get something you like. Another good thing is that there is an almost positive chance that your request will be played and that you will have your comment read out, as they make that very easily available on the website, http://ury.york.ac.uk/ and you will always have a web cam to see on of the presenters doing something. The last thing is the design on the website, now there are some good and bad points, the good point is that you can see almost every CD that URY have to offer for request.
The bad thing is the fact that you need to Google search the site if you want to get to a certain page like the podcast page, as I can't find it listed.
If you have a band and you have a recording or a CD well I am sure they will play it.

The best AM radio station by far and even beating FM, varied style and a laugh, URY 1350AM.
