pinned post!
👋 Hello Bluesky! I’ve been lurking, but with a recent increase in followers I wanted to introduce myself. I’m Andy and I work on all sorts of things software related in and around radio and podcasts. I’m also one of those weird childless millennials that visit Disney parks semi-regularly.

One of the best things about getting the festive Radio Times is the brilliant artwork. So excited when our copy arrived like this from

The acoustics on Lee Mack's voiceover bits on The 1% Club Rollover sound like they were done in the office upstairs between the shows.

The iMac G3 from 2001 is my favourite-looking computer of all time, but it's completely unusable these days because of its age. So I tore out its insides (leaving the CRT screen intact of course) and replaced them with a brand new Mac Mini M4.

I dragged this iMac G3, kicking and screaming, 25 years into the present by swapping its innards for a brand new Mac Mini M4.

Two weekends in a row I’ve been up on roofs and I’m now certain I could never do that sort of work professionally.

This only really makes sense with the context of what it’s replying to, but I now feel satisfied I can call it for my consumption of “the internet” today.

Decided I *do* care about quality, impartial tech journalism enough to subscribe to
@theverge.com
for 12 months. Genuinely uneasy about where the world of disappearing platforms and influencer sponsored content is headed. Don’t get me wrong, some good stuff out there, but few and far between.

Well, even with knowledge of the ban ahead of New Year, I did not have “nationalise TikTok” on my 2025 US news bingo card

Trump says he’ll delay TikTok ban, but the platform must be sold
The incoming president also says he wants the US government to buy it, which is ?????

If The Masked Singer is teaching us one thing this series, it's that the show could survive with just the backing performers alone.

Final run through complete. I'll be presenting "Lighting up The Lantern - Bauer's new London Broacast Centre" (basically the last 2 years of my working life!) at Radio Tech Con tomorrow. It definitely won't be a form of therapy session, not a bit.

All this and so much more at Radio TechCon 2024. If you don’t have tickets yet, get them before they’re gone and maybe I’ll see you there?
