Amy’s Curiosity Carousel

 

Amy’s Curiosity Carousel is the radio show for people who can’t throw things away because what if they’re important later?

It’s a welcoming space for heart-headed hoarders, weird girls with tote bags full of inexplicable objects, and fandom-frenzied freaks who know that emotional-support trinkets aren’t “just junk,” but intricate keys to canon, and proudly headcanoned, lore.

Each episode revolves around a playful theme (like lucky charms, seasonal souvenirs, or obscure oddities). Amy shares her own curiosities, invites listeners to submit and discuss their most beloved items, and weaves in thematically related songs and artists along the way. The show celebrates thrift-store goblins, micro-collections, hyperfixations, internet obsessions, and that one tiny object you keep in your pocket just in case.

Expect silly games, dramatic object backstories, nostalgic spirals, chaotic joy, and music that feels like your inner monologue finally got a soundtrack.

If you’ve ever said:

“I’ll use this someday”

“This reminds me of a character”

“This song feels like a trinket”

“No, I can’t explain it - it just belongs to me”

…Then this is the show for you!

Fast Traffic

Some cars drive round in circles, probably breaking some speed limits. But for some reason we all love it and just pray nothing goes wrong.

MAX VERSTAPPEN.).

What on earth is going on in the world? It's a fair question. Join Eloise as she tries to figure it out, with a hour-long news round up of all the UK and international political stories bracing the headlines. Don't worry, there'll be a few tunes in there, too - have to lighten the mood somehow.

The Kitty Chrisp Show

My show revolves around music and as little talking a possible. I will play anything from 60's classics to alternative new exciting bands which I feel are pretty damn jammy and should be more widely known. If you're someone always looking for new bands to become obsessed with, or just a silly procrastination dance around your room to some nostalgic beats, then choon in and I will just keep whapping them choons out.

An Hour with Grumpy Jim
An interesting show, in which a gentlemen known only as Grumpy Jim gives his typically pessimistic views on the world around him. Jim discusses everything from politics to sport, from Amy Winehouse to Linsay Lohan and from Glasgow to York, which coincidentally is the train he's supposedly getting. A highly amusing hour of poor quizes, poor news, interesting songs and a running commentary of the whole lot.
