Sunday Service Breakfast Broadcast

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.


Manic Music Mixer

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.


All Things Go

A show based around your requests, "All Things Go" - If appropriate of course. The show will vary from all sorts of genres and we will play as many of your requests. We will also fit in a few of our own requests too, but make sure you listen in as you can take control this hour.


URY Breakfast presents Humour Us
The worst darn thing i've ever heard...I like it. An random, and yet exciting, mixture of golden oldies, guilty pleasures and up and coming treasure. All of which intermingled with some topical discussion.
Freshen Up for Freshers' Fair

It's that time of the year again - there'll be one stall giving out bags for some reason, so make sure you grab the bag for all the other random freebies you get from stalls you pretend to be interested in just to get the pens.

Freshers' Fair 2021 is nearly upon us - join me as we build up to it with some great music and chat!


The Night Call

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!


Society Speed Dating

Beth and Chess get up close and personal with different socities on campus! Every week, we will be chatting a different society, finding out what they are about, what makes them tick, and why people should join them. There is something new in every episode, so make sure to listen on catch up if you miss one!


URY Breakfast with William Chalk and Charles Lewis
All the best Indie and Alternative music, with a drop of chart stuff thrown in for good measure, and an appropriate amount of high jynx.
URY:PM - The "What is the character limit for these show names anyhow? Is there one? Perhaps there should be one? I mean, this one is really stretching out the schedule table. And still it continues. Surely nobody will ever need a show name to be this long?" Show, the Absolute Last No-More-After-This Complete and Utter Final Show of All Time (Perhaps?!?!) of Eiron Page (with Naomi Gildert, Who - We Hope - Has Many More Shows to Come)

We break the schedule layout to bring you one last show from former programme controller Eiron Page, and pass the baton by way of radio to the new programme controller - Naomi - and also play some music, ostensibly chosen by you. The PM show Eiron always meant to do, but never did; because leaving things to the last minute is how he do.

*** The only show on URY to double as a bug report!™


URY Breakfast - The Duvet Lifters
This is the show to get you out from under that duvet. Packed with the finest blend of rare and not-so-rare music beans. Years of meticulous development have resulted in a show with the sole aim of easing human life back to the vertical. With his encyclopedic knowledge of swathes of artists, and his penchant for all things Bushy, Hugh provides the main musical drive. His quirky tracks, mixed in with more conventional fayre, are bound to excite the ears. James will make sure Morrissey and Goldfrapp get their airtime. With its easy going chatter and continual references to mugs of coffee, listeners will be reaching for the kettle before they know it.

The Station Manager, the Secretary and the Treasurer. What fun they must have together.
The Bois

Lunch Hour with Paul Oates
Not sure how to get from 12:00 to 13:00? Paul will show you how!.
Charlie Says...
What kind of music do you like? I'm not sure actually... Playing anything and everything, and eventually hoping to find out exactly what her music type is, Charlie Elliott blasts your ears with metal but quickly cools them down with some soul. Or anything else she can find.
URY:PM - The Harry Whittaker Show

Squint your ears and check in with Harry for LOLs a-plenty. (Probably). He has amusing chat and good pop music to fuel your procrastination. Make sure you look out for 'Funny Stuff From the TV', 'Lyrical Shmyrical', 'Poke fun at the period between Monday and Sunday' and 'Band Name Generator'. He's very excited.


URY Lunch: Andrew Lopez
Some rather good new music for the pleasure of your ears while you take a spot of lunch.

The Big Fat Wood E Farewell

The time has come for the members of Wood E to say farewell, and move on to more expensive housing next year. Join most members of the most iconic house in the most iconic college (up the fax), as well as a random bloke we picked up outside James College, who will not leave us alone...help. 

We will reflect upon the ups and downs, the Flares shenanigans, the Guinness guzzling, the GARRYs, the late night karaoke and the thing that brought around 72% of us together...URY. 

Make sure not to miss it, it will be an emotional one.

BOSH!


Noughty But Nice!

This is the radio show which will take you back in time to the 00s - a phenomenal decade for music in which a lot of us grew up!
