The strange show of secret stories continues with it's new title and new lease of life. Once the strange show of serendipity now confirmed the project. But who is running it? What's the end goal? What is actually happening? Questions whose answers we may never know. We'll just have to see and have to keep listening. Listening to the show by the humbled presenter Simon Asaert.
Join URY for 30 continuous hours as we follow the Grumpy Youngish Men and the rest of University of York's Jailbreak teams whilst they escape from campus to raise money for Kidscan. How far will they get?! We'll be getting live updates from the teams, tracking their progress and keeping you entertained along the way.
Join the regular No DLC team as we discuss and disect the week in video games, film and tv!! We'll also be seeing what happens when four people with rather different music tastes compete over whose songs to play through the only way that doesn't involve an ambulance: game shows!! We're bringing back the (soon to be) legendary "Stealthy Godzilla", introducing the shiny new "Broodier than Batman?" and much more!!!

Far out in the uncharted backwaters of the unfashionable end of the Western Spiral arm of the Milky Way galaxy, lies a small, unregarded yellow sun. Orbiting this at a distance of roughly ninety-million miles is an utterly insignificant blue-green planet whose inhabitants include a student radio station, and a Douglas Adams Society in the same place.
On the 42nd anniversary of the orginal broadcast of Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, Dougsoc and URY collide in an infinitely improbable fusion of geekery and humour.
The Music Menagerie's nocturnal cousin whose just a bit more aggressive
A seamless hour of experimental music curated and presented by Freddie Rose. With minimal talking and a focus on avant-garde and underground music, Experimental Jet Set harkens back to the college radio stations in the United States and UK in the 20th century, whose dedication to music below the mainstream championed and gave a voice to generations of experimental, alternative musicians and art-rockers - including Sonic Youth, whose 1994 album the show's name is derived from.
"College stations saw promulgation of lesser-heard groups as their responsibility; their sacred mission. They were staffed by music enthusiasts who worked without pay, and who saw college rock as a desperately needed alternative to the platinum tedium of “classic” and Top 40 drivel." - Ian Svenonius
