Roger That returns for another year. Featuring classic features like Segment of the Week as well as some new games. And of course we'll fill the hour with 100% bangers.
Guests are provided with ridiculous problems that nobody has. They have five minutes to design an original invention and then give their pitch. Three rounds, one winner, zero braincells. What could go wrong?
Join William King for an hour of music reflecting on the day just gone.
As well as bringing you hits from the past we keep up-to-date by chatting through recent events from around the world and playing the tracks that we feel fit.
Join us for a chill chat session - we'll be talking about our experiences entering young adult life as well as playing some songs that we've recently been having on repeat - tune in if you need to escape for a while for some advice, real talk and discovering something new to add to your playlist.
Join Harry 'Who Does Law' Reeves, James from James from Jams from James from James, and AL for the festive special of NOW We're Talking!
Expect extra-special Christmas canoodley games, massive funnies, beef reports (or whatever meat/meat alternative you have on your Xmas dinner), NOW tunes and some top tier chat.
Now, that's what it is.
Join us live from James Beach as we bring the noise back to campus for Freshers' Fair! And... Hang on a minute... Is that a boat on the lake?!??!

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!
Tom's back in 23' with a *NEW* show idea (almost).
Join Tom for songs from the day of the show in history, AND listen as guests play the game that gave the show its name: Chart Smart!
Who will top the charts and WIN the coveted title of Chart Smart Champion!? Listen in to find out!
A carefully curated selection of broadly "alternative" (whatever that means) tunes from the classic to the eclectic, with a special nod of fondness to the arty and pretentious. Yes, "classic alternative" is kind of a contradiction in terms, but here at Speed of Life, we embrace paradox to the point of meaninglessness. Occasional themed weeks provide welcome respite from the usual swirl of chaos.
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.
With a term 1 unlike any other almost over, join URY News as they speak to both the Vice Chancellor and some representatives from student media about all that has occured and what the year ahead may look like.
One theme, one girl and as many songs as we can fit into one hour.
Every week I'll present to you a list of songs that share a common theme. Of course you are more than welcome to make your own suggestions both for themes and songs.
LET'S PLAY A GAME: Guess today’s bands by their musical ancestors! We play music from bands/artists that have inspired this weeks chosen band... and you try guess who they are. Get it right? you choose next weeks band!
Unlike Beyoncé, we make our own content. Join us as we exercise our contractual right to a maximum of 2 Beyoncé songs in an hour, plus as may features as we can find.
songs that fit a different theme every week, depending on the specific feeling i want to convey. some themes might include: homesickness, change, the ruins of love, pancakes and syrup, the freedom of singing loudly in the car, yearning, what a teenage summer feels like, self love, anger, and pride. basically i like words and i like songs.
Urban Dictionary defines the term 'Hep Cat' as being: a musical cat who can hang and fit in with other cats that can jive. Making a show for those eclectic hep cats is what we plan to do here. Strictly for musical cats, not necessarily of the feline variety.
Exactly what it says on the tin.
Not that radio shows come in tins.
But this one does, and it's a three decade old salted pork tin full of what will probably be recent London migrant and soon-to-be-former PhD student Matt Windsor's last ever show on URY before he finally stops being a student. Expect pretty much everything that can be expected from a washed up student radio DJ that was once referred to as URY's answer to Alan Partridge: an hour of awkward gaps between songs, awkward songs between gaps, and attempts to draw a close on 8ish years of somehow repeatedly being scheduled for shows despite having the radio nous of a loofah. Does anyone still use loofahs?
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!
A show to turn even the lamest of squares into far-out foot tappers.
Over the course of the show, extreme levels of rockabilly will be pumped through the airwaves of URY, from Elvis Presley to The Big Bopper, all with the intention of providing maximum satisfaction.
The show will consist of anecdotes relating to the music in question, explorations into the popular themes and concepts of rockabilly/rock 'n' roll (such as a show dedicated to 'Death Discs'), as well as interviews with individuals who remember watching the rock 'n' roll stars of the 1950s in their heyday. Playing the big hits of the 1950s, as well as with the secret 7" golddust that's been hiding in the attic, this show will provide a roster of early rock 'n' roll and rockabilly that will make you want to turn your fringe into a quiff, your Volkswagen into a Cadillac, and your Carling into a Cherry Coke.
Back for one last hurrah (he's said that before) The Nic Munday Show is back again. Tune in for two hours of fun-filled features, great tunes and just a bit of a laugh. Featuring the old favourite, Film Review Time.
Music and humour. A show that aims to play songs you can dance to whilst also providing you with a laugh.
Raiding the URY vinyl archive, digging up scratchy old songs, keeping URY on air that little bit longer
