Saturday

Built on the community broadcasting sector's principles of democracy, independence and access, NRN has no commercial ties or political agenda, and often covers stories overlooked by commercial services. Bulletins are produced in Bathurst, NSW, by three full-time journalists, supported by cadets from Charles Sturt University. News is sourced from Reuters, BBC, Sky News, ABC and community radio sector. Bulletins are four minutes long and mix national and international news, sport and finance. There is a particular focus on the information needs of people in regional areas.

How do you describe The 2 Blokes Chatting Radio Show? Well, to start with, it’s a radio show presented by two blokes - that accounts for about 80% of the program name. But the other word - Chatting - has been chosen deliberately to encompass the program's style. Rather than conducting interviews, the 2 Blokes chat with a range of people from regular correspondents to one-off special guests, representing the sport, music and community sectors. The 2 Blokes Chatting Radio Show - it's how Geelong spends its Saturday mornings. <iframe src="https://omny.fm/shows/2-blokes-chatting/playlists/podcast/embed?style=cover" width="100%" height="500" frameborder="0" title="2 Blokes Chatting"></iframe>

Sportsfix is a Saturday sport show which runs from 12.00-1.30pm in the football season and from 9.00-10.00am in the summer sport season. While we do cover the AFL news, the focus is mainly on local sport and local sports identities. Football and Netball are featured in the winter while cricket and other summer sport are covered in the warmer months. The show leads into a direct broadcast of the GDFL match of the day in the footy season and we do an extended coverage of that league to support the connection. Women’s Football is another major focus as the local Cats team prepares for entry into the AFLW in 2019 We have interviewed AFL identities like Leigh Matthews, John Birt, Steven Hocking and David Bolton, while the summer show has a detailed coverage of the Geelong Cricket Club and all local leagues. Rob Cameron anchors the show, while young journalist Josh Barnes, ex AFL player Sean Simpson, Community Radio identity Neil Butler and local athlete Paul Kininburgh also contribute during the footy season and Rob Malcolm assists with the cricket coverage in summer. We are very proud to support local sport and its characters. <iframe src="https://omny.fm/shows/sportsfix/playlists/podcast/embed?style=cover" width="100%" height="500" frameborder="0" title="Sportsfix"></iframe>

David’s interest in radio first commenced at age twelve when he ran a cable from his home in Eaglehawk Bendigo to his school mate’s home about a mile away to exchange music & talk. At secondary school, he ran a school based radio called 3WH at the annual school fete, played his top 20 records, charged 0.20 cents a song request to raise funds for the school. David moved to Bacchus Marsh & joined Melton Community Radio in 1984 where he hosted a weekly Saturday afternoon modern music program. He then set up a Community Radio in Bacchus Marsh. The first test broadcast was held in October 1986 & in 2001 a full licence was granted to 3APL on frequency 98.5FM. The station today is known as 98.5 Apple FM. In 2013 David moved to Torquay to live & became involved in Geelong’s Community Radio 94.7 the Pulse. He currently hosts a weekly Sunday afternoon music program from 4 to 6pm called “Steeleworksfm” featuring music from 60’s, 70’s, 80’s & 90’s. <iframe src="https://omny.fm/shows/steeleworks-fm/playlists/podcast/embed?style=cover" width="100%" height="500" frameborder="0" title="Steeleworks FM"></iframe>
