ARE YOU BRAVE ENOUGH?
URY and Litsoc present a frightening live horror event happening right here on York Uni campus this Halloween.
Taking place in complete darkness in the very creepy location of Heslington Hall, we dare you to listen to 3 originally written and produced horror stories.
It is a FREE event, no tickets needed, just a lot of nerve. All the scares and screams will be broadcast LIVE on URY as well at 6-7pm this Halloween.
So if you think you can last the hour in pitch black darkness we challenge you to come and be part of a special one-off URY event.
Good luck, we'll be waiting...
Join us for 2 magical hours a week of reporting all absurdity there is. We talk about news that are odd, weird, crazy, or eccentric, but most importanly, interesting and amusing (ooh, dem adjectives and thesaurus eloquence). All this PLUS lots of music! We play everything from good old classics to guilty pleasures, we just go with the flow (and requests!).
Tune in every Monday at 5pm!
Waiting for your messages and existing solely for your amusement,
I.e. Truly yours,
Smeleanor Smith from Grassington and Kaja Harton
As the saying goes, everyone gets theirs. University bigwigs, students, and campus in general have finally had enough of Jonny Long and Callum McCulloch.
In the ultimate act of media censorship, the powers that be have created an artificial island in the lake by central hall, and have duly marrooned our two entrepid protagonists upon it.
However, in an age of plummetting league table places, a disaffected student body, and general lack of extraordinarily funny people, the boys have been given a radio show to pass their time in exile, and also the option of recruiting one more person for their wiley band of vagabonds.
Therefore, they will be holding tryouts, live on air. There will be challenges, we will critique the songs you wish to bring with you, your luxury item better be on our list of things we need.
It's going to be sort of like The Apprentice, Only Connect, The X Factor, Raven, and a certain BBC Radio 4 radio show (that we can't remember the name of) all rolled into one.
The critics have called it a gamechanger, our mother's have called it a 2:2 waiting to happen.
All we know is that it's going to pop off in a big way.
It's dogs doing a student radio show.
The Student Radio Association's chart, featuring the Top 20 from across the SRA Network over the last week. Rotating through stations, this show will be hosted by URY on the 21st April, and we can't wait!
This results day from 7 am to midnight, URY will be broadcasting LIVE coverage as people receive their A-Level results across the country. With fresh content specifically aimed at the University of York's offer holders and those on the clearing lines, tune in for a day of top (available) presenters giving you the true York experience.... or Yorexpirence... Don't worry, you'll hear worse “Yor-” puns than that. We hope.
Join Matt, JK and Isaac on the early shift as the initial figures come through. If you’re sitting by your computer waiting for the results to come through UCAS, tune in! We’ve got 2 hours of interviews, news analysis and top URY content to take you through to 9am.

So, you've made it to Friday of Freshers' Week. 4 days of non-stop clubbing and introductory activities haven't been enough to dissuade you, and somehow you're up at 9am again. Join Will, Michael and Sam for a look back on the week and look forward to the weekend, where you can have a break from it all. Oh wait, no you can't, there's still the fair yet!
Some ancient relics are just waiting to be dug up, their beauty and cultural value just begging to be displayed and dissected once again. Some however should probably stay buried. Join Professor Flora and friends as they dust off some long forgotten songs, and decide whether to enshrine them in their Musical Museum or lock them away in the vaults forever.
Well. The time has come. Alex Towells is about to leave the University of York, and thus URY, and as such this is his final show.
Oh, and did I mention? He's going to do it for 14 entire hours. Because of course he is.
Tune in to enjoy(?) many an hour of Towells and friends giving literally everything they've got left to this silly little student radio station.
Results day is drawing to a close so whether you know where you are going or are still waiting, join Sam to get the evening party started!!!
You were trying to cross the border, right? Walked right into that Imperial ambush, same as us, and that thief over there. Lokir: Darn you Stormcloaks. Skyrim was fine until you came along. Empire was nice and lazy. If they hadn't been looking for you, I could've stolen that horse and been half way to Hammerfell. You there. You and me -- we shouldn't be here. It's these Stormcloaks the Empire wants. Ralof: We're all brothers and sisters in binds now, thief. Imperial Soldier: Shut up back there! [Lokir looks at the gagged man.] Lokir: And what's wrong with him? Ralof: Watch your tongue! You're speaking to Ulfric Stormcloak, the true High King. Lokir: Ulfric? The Jarl of Windhelm? You're the leader of the rebellion. But if they captured you... Oh gods, where are they taking us? Ralof: I don't know where we're going, but Sovngarde awaits. Lokir: No, this can't be happening. This isn't happening. Ralof: Hey, what village are you from, horse thief? Lokir: Why do you care? Ralof: A Nord's last thoughts should be of home. Lokir: Rorikstead. I'm...I'm from Rorikstead. [They approach the village of Helgen. A soldier calls out to the lead wagon.] Imperial Soldier: General Tullius, sir! The headsman is waiting! General Tullius: Good. Let's get this over with. Lokir: Shor, Mara, Dibella, Kynareth, Akatosh. Divines, please help me. Ralof: Look at him, General Tullius the Military Governor. And it looks like the Thalmor are with him. Damn elves. I bet they had something to do with this. This is Helgen. I used to be sweet on a girl from here. Wonder if Vilod is still making that mead with juniper berries mixed in. Funny...when I was a boy, Imperial walls and towers used to make me feel so safe. [A man and son watch the prisoners pull into town.] Haming: Who are they, daddy? Where are they going? Torolf: You need to go inside, little cub. Haming: Why? I want to watch the soldiers. Torolf: Inside the house. Now. [The wagon stops near the chopping block.] Imperial Soldier: Whoa. Lokir: Why are they stopping? Ralof: Why do you think? End of the line. also a banging breakfast show.
Do you like music and random conversation that is somewhat (but not always) connected to said music?
Then join Tolan, Sam, Harry and whoever else, as they delve into an obscure and varied collection of classics and one-hit wonders from a variety of genres on both Vinyl and digital formats!
If this show is on the schedule, it means that Charlie Bradbury wanted to do a show and couldn't wait until whenever URY favourite*, Bonkers Conkers, was next on air. Tune in for some random chit chat!
