Gary Stark in radio

Gary Stark

As a teenager, I often used to hang around a couple of the major commercial stations in Sydney. I was fascinated by the process, and wanted to get involved in this business.

Life of course gets in the way of many childhood desires.

Earlier this year I had an opportuniuty to become involved, as a broadcaster, at a Sydney community radio station, 2RDJ-FM, and at age 54, one of my childhood dreams has finally been realised. I am now presenting a weekly jazz show, every Tuesday morning, at 11am Sydney time.

Most weeks I try to stream the show live. Try listening by tuning Winamp to www2.redbacksweb.com:8000 to get the live stream.

Podcast links are provided for recorded shows. My apologies for the poor quality of some of these broadcasts, but the feed seems to pick up some noise somewhere along the way. Right click to save these entries, or just click to play them
