Tomorrow on Radio Popstand Halloween themed tracks, including tracks from new released compilation “Chilling, Thrilling Hooks and Haunted Harmonies” on Big Stir Records.

The scariest radio show that has ever emanated from any radio speakers.

We will be live from 1:30pm BST on Sun 19th Oct 25.

Dear niece Darcie has this box of LEGO, but the manual has gone walkabouts to some unknown location. “Can we make this”, she asks. Not to disappoint I inform her we can so do and after sometime several items have been created, including this dog, or is it a cat? Meow! 😸🐕

Sad to hear radio presenter Colin Berry died earlier today. On BBC Radio 2 for 33 years! Wow, that’s quite an achievement. Up in that radio station in the sky with the likes of Wogan, Young, Stewart, Dunn, Walker, Everett, Cash, Henderson, Wyndham etc. RIP

Jeff Wright @jeffersonhere.bsky.social · Apr 17

Hey, there’s a radio station on the air this Saturday afternoon called Radio Popstand on the Stationhead app. I’m gonna be listening.

In fact I’m also gonna be presenting the show.

Easter bunnies, chicks, eggs, a Bitmoji of me, a few musical instruments and text telling us all about Radio Popstand.

A bit of blue sky on BlueSky, now you can’t complain about that can you, and happy Easter break time. Hooray!

Oh dear, got completely stuck on #Wordle yesterday. Got four of the letters but all in the wrong place. Had several sessions trying to fathom out, but was not to be 😕

A snap I took yesterday evening at nieces of a Christmas plant using an app called ‘Pix Art Cam’. I enhanced this using the app ‘Snapseed’, then added a final touch with lettering from another app by the name of ‘piZap’

Jeff Wright @jeffersonhere.bsky.social · Nov 26

Oh dear! My 37-day streak on #Wordle bites the dust 😢

On a positive note I’ve just achieved a 9-day streak on Blunderwall.

Oh dear, when asking my #echo device how many sleeps there were to #Christmas there was a shout of ‘Ho-Ho-Ho’, a sound of Christmas bells, and reindeers making the sounds that reindeers make, then nothing. Poor #Alexa couldn’t answer my question, is she perhaps trying to forget Christmas?

Jeff Wright @jeffersonhere.bsky.social · Nov 23

Don’t want to frighten you but #Christmas is getting closer, there are 32 sleeps till the magic day. I’m taking a short break from listening to all that Christmas music as I compile the playlist for the Christmas broadcast of Radio #Popstand, listening to Christmas music in November is confusing!

Jeff Wright @jeffersonhere.bsky.social · Nov 18

I spoke yesterday on Radio Popstand of the game Blunderwall. Here’s the link to the game, have fun!

I beat the Blunderwall in 3 guesses! Can you beat it?

Look forward to seeing videos appearing on here. I could then post the video I took of this #squirrel in the park

Jeff Wright @jeffersonhere.bsky.social · May 10

Hello world of Bluesky. Sitting in the park after work, and look there’s a blue sky up there. Good news is it’s getting warmer, summer is coming

I see the legendary Radio Caroline is here on Bluesky, that station that used to battle the elements on a ship in the North Sea to bring us all that music.

They’ve since come ashore, but still bring us all that wonderful music. @radiocaroline.bsky.social
