I know I don’t need to explain why I do the #VlogChallenge & what the topic (this one was music) is all about. But I have a blog and if Vlogging makes me Blog more then it’s win win.

Week 4 was all about music, so  after checking that it would be ok with the Station Manager, I took my camera down to Preston FM and recorded the Vlog whilst I was recording Geek On Radio.

First of all, IT IS CRAZY HOT IN PRESTON FM STUDIOS, so hot that my camera overheated and didn’t want to play at first. Then my computer wasn’t too impressed. But eventually I actually mamanged to record something worth uploading to YouTube.

Any there you go.

So the report that I was talking about was an American one, by Media Matters for America. You can read it all here if you like, but I have got some of the slides ready for you, if you’re not in the mood.

SO These are the things I posted on Facebook, way back at the start of the year, and I was prodded in the right direction. I love my radio show. I love doing it, the people I’ve met and the places I’ve been, and it’s not even six months old!

Have a listen,
