Some careers quietly shape the culture behind the scenes.
In this episode of TIMELESS with Teddy, broadcaster, DJ and media pioneer Lindsay Wesker joins the conversation to reflect on decades of influence across radio, television and music culture.
Best known as the host of The A–Z of MiSoul Music on MiSoul Radio, Lindsay takes us back to the early days of his career, including his time broadcasting on the pirate version of Kiss FM in the early 1980s — a period that helped shape London’s underground radio scene.
He also recounts the pivotal phone call in 1989 that led to Kiss FM becoming one of the first legal dance music radio stations in the UK, marking a major shift in British broadcasting history.
Beyond radio, Lindsay reflects on the role he played in launching MTV Base, the iconic television platform that helped bring Black music culture to global audiences.
The conversation also explores his life beyond broadcasting — as an author, teacher, husband and father — and the balance required to navigate a career spanning media, DJing and family life.
A conversation about broadcasting history, music culture and the people who helped shape the soundtrack of generations.
