Brian Reynolds's Podcast
I've worked in radio in the past and always have had an interest in broadcasting. The new era of podcasting excites me , as I come to realize the benefits of the new medium.
I do this totally on a voluntary basis and as a hobby.
I focus on mostly local events from historical, sports along with the odd solo pieces from myself ..I like to cover happenings and events that don't attract mainstream media interest.
