Horrible news. It's really upset me. Hopefully this can be born again in some other way. Maybe podcasts on YouTube. I dunno.

Never say never everyone, really appreciate your supportive comments. Would be great if we can make a comeback under a new flag.

Very bizarre few days, on Monday morning I had the pleasure of Gary and Lena’s time down at the GTs and that was time very well spent. It all went a little bit downhill after that as I finally managed to corner PASOTI Co-owner IJN for the long threatened interview for the sports show but you can’t win them all.
Then down to Foulston Park hub for a delightful chat with a group of pensioners being looked after by the Community Trust supervised by Trev. Interview for my own show recorded then the implosion of the station began to be evident.
Frustrating as I also had Level 42’s Mark King interviewed to air this Wednesday along with unsung heroes Clean my Patch CIC coming in to talk about their efforts to keep our city clear of human waste. Next week would have seen Andy Rance from Livewire on live with me and the vice chair of the Tamar Tag Action Group on a prerecorded interview. Hopefully all of these will keep for another time, another place, another station.
There wasn’t going to be a sports show this week as neither Joe or I were available so Ian’s chat would have gone on next week. Sure felt odd not having either show to prep for though.
Have been touched by all the kind messages on here, Insta, Linked In, our FB page which is still live surprisingly and also on Plymouth Live (amongst the usual dross that you get). Thinking caps are on, cogs are whirring, hamster is in its wheel etc etc…..

Let’s hope that there can be a phoenix station rising from the flames I do hope so
Like it but probably a bit too close for comfort if we don’t want to be associated
Others that I have come up thus far include Resurgem, Carpe Diem, Uprising, Revolution (probably already taken), Mayflower, Pilgrim
On another note, have just received confirmation from Just Giving that my donations are on their way back to me, should hit my account this Thursday, so that means the donations all you fantastic folk put in should also be similarly repatriated into your accounts at the same sort of time.
Thanks again and apologies for the ever so unscheduled premature end to proceedings a week ago. Glad to report the team of volunteers are quite chirpy, checking in with each other and getting itchy feet as their passion was whipped away rather unceremoniously. Hoping that some good will come from this

Evening all,
Just to try and keep PASOTI folks engaged while there’s no radio, there is an almost 20 minute chat I had with the infamous Mr Newell nearly a couple of weeks ago - same day that a certain radio station imploded in fact. Didn’t seem fair to deprive you all of the chance to hear us having a natter so I am just trying to work out how to get it on here, bear with!

I reckon it was destined not to go out Steve.
Don't bust a gut old chap.

Can’t compete with the PR own goal scored by the club yesterday but in other news….. went up to the studio today in Estover and it’s totally bare, even the fridge, desk and rug a friend of mine donated a fortnight before implosion day and my PASOTI stickers in the window all gone.
Hopefully everyone who donated from PASOTI had their donations safely returned?
I did see submerged somewhere the news that the OCR bank had completed their investigation and refunded
the £1k or so that had been snuck out by the bad guys, so at least creditors might see some money coming their way.
Think the unit will still be available in a few weeks though
