Its time to relive the early 2000s with URY Alumnus Phil Pollard!
Former preswnter of URY's flagship new music show "The Vibe", Phil will be looking back to see if his predictions of bands that would make it big! He will also be bringing back aspects of his show "Uncovered" and we may even see the return of the classic "Evening Selection" quiz URY Re-wind!
If rock is your genre of choice, then look no further. Tuck-in to a plateful of punk and indie bangers served up for your enjoyment, with just a sprinkling whatever I'm most interested in on the day. Together, we can hopefully discover something new each week!
A mix of good music, chat, quizzes and a fun look back at the University's scientific history. To celebrate the Physics department's 50th!
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!

At the start of each show, my hastily-written computer code picks a random date from the 60s, 70s or 80, and I have to fill 58 minutes with music and news from that date. The URY record library gets a bit patchy if we go back to the 60s, so wish me luck!

University Radio York's flagship Sunday morning show. (for a small amount of time)
I played some quiet jazzy songs.
But I got bored of the idea when I realised that having the Sunday morning slot wasn't very impressive even if it was quite funny.
And also I was half awake.
Very nice life experience being forced to talk into a microphone in an empty room :)
I should probably listen back to these to make sure these audio clips don't cancel me but... for the most part, I trust that my that my younger self wouldn't get cancelled.
Feel free to listen back to these shows but I warn you- they're bad.
James counts down the biggest 20 songs on campus compiled from airplay and your requests. He also takes a look at the UK album chart and turns back the clock with some retro No1s.
Hey, you found an easter egg! We're off air right now; check our social medias to see when we'll be back!
Muse Radio Editor Jolie Whittingham and Nouse Radio Editor Isaac Wilson run through the topics and music that the Nouse team suggest in this laid-back, comical and more often than not dysfunctional evening radio show.

Alex and Marks educate each other about their completely different music tastes. The pair will focus on a different section of their respective back catalogues each week, split half way between Marks' eclectic electronic and Alex's weird and wonderful rock and funk, it's sure to be an... interesting combination.
The double agent himself is back (They just can't get rid of me)! Coming to you live from the Liverpool Guild of Students in a studio kindly loaned out by Liverpool Guild Student Media. They're not on air right now but never let something so trival as technical difficulties™ get in the way of good radio and what better place to go than my old stomping gound at URY.

Your weekly fix of old and new R&B alongside short discussions on R&B related news.
It's that time of the year again! For a second year in a row Dee will be testing the limits of endurance the the sheer trial of a 4 hour show, but this time with guests (hopefully!). Come down and just sit on the air and talk utter nonsense for four hours!
A show dedicated to all things synthwave, the breakout electronic genre featuring old-school synths inspired by the pop hits and movie soundtracks of the 1980's. James and Bernie will drive you through the night across the genre's expansive indie scene, with the occasional genuine retro hit for good measure. If you're a fan of contemporary styles and still wish we used cassettes, then this is the show for you!
Welcome back to Game Day! The greatest student media collab (if we do say so ourselves) between URY and YSTV, bringing sport to both your eyes and ears. This time, we are covering the men's football 1s as they take on the Teeside men's 1s.
