Hi folks,
just a quick one to remind you that great local band FRANCESQA will be popping into Dex's Midday Runners from about 12:30 today (Fri 5th June) for a chat and a play of their music, so be sure to listen in!
UPDATE - This show will be repeated at a time TBC
The John & John Show - Saturday 8-10am
Following their appearances at the Union, our resident crack investigator Tristan Mitchard [of The John & John Show] asks 4 professionals the questions Union attendees never dare...
- 1. Martin Sheen (West Wing's President Jed Bartlett);
- 2. Richard Schiff (West Wing's Toby Ziegler);
- 3. Journalist and founding Sky chairman, Mr Andrew Neil.
- 4. Alan Johnston, BBC correspondent (kidnapped by Palestinian militants back in 2007).
Listen in to find out how they got on,
Saturday morning, 8-10am, only on Oxide Radio

This Saturday, 2 May the Samsung NME Radar Tour comes to the O2 Academy, where La Roux (whose rather brilliant track In For The Kill is No. 2 at the mo), Magistrates, Heartbreak and The Chapman Family are playing. Haven't got tickets? Well, don't worry because we've teamed up with the good folks at Samsung to give you a chance of winning one of 10 pairs of tickets to the gig!
To be in with a chance of winning, all you have to do is send your name and mobile phone number to oxidecompetition@hotmail.com before Friday at 7pm, and we'll pick at random 10 lucky winners.
Good Luck!
Just some details that got missed off below...
The Oxford Union President-elect, Corey Dixon, will be reviewing the news tonight, giving us his take on the election results and all the rest of the top stories.
More Union-ness with Anna Williams, Union Secretary, with Labour's Chair-elect Jacob Turner and LibDem former President Martin Nelson debating the top stories.
It'll be epic - last one of term.

So, my original plan had been to write a postmortem on this blog every week, so that future generations could look back and chart Oxide's evolution from microphone-in-a-cupboard to Oxford based media conglomerate. Clearly I've fallen slightly short of this plan, but in my defense, it's probably because I was busy working on the station at the time.
Still, better late than never, they say.
Continue reading Week... uh, what day is it, now?... postmortem.
You can get to the chatroom at any point by clicking "Requests" at the top!
There you can talk to the presenters, request songs, ask not at all inappropriate questions, and show the show you love you love them.
I personally hang out there on a Thursday evening and an empty stomach from 8pm,... not for any reason... in particular...
Enjoy yourselves,
MQ

Hi folks,
I've moved the audio stream to a new server address. Hopefully, this should fix some of the problems people have had with listening to the station inside colleges; however, if you've been listening to us in a player like iTunes, you'll need to re-add us to your library via the 'Listen Live' link in the top right corner.
Apologies; hopefully this is something we'll never have to do again.
(For the technically curious: the stream is now being served through port 80, which should let it pass through most college firewalls. I tried supporting both the old and new addresses but Icecast2 can't quite handle it).

Hear OUSU President, Lewis Iwu, tell us what he made of the last seven days on this week's Breaking the Bubble.
He'll be reviewing the top Oxford, national and international stories followed by a debate between Labour's Joint-President-Elect, Jamie Susskind, Conservative treasurer, Alexander Elias, and LibDem Secretary, Peter Sloman.
All that from 8pm on Sunday here on Oxide.
Wow, has it been only a week since we went back on air? It feels longer. So much has happened. We've seen things some people wouldn't believe. Prerecorded logs firing off 'Eternity' by Orion. Sound effects glittering in the dead air near the ten-hour mark. All these moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain. Time... to push on with week two.
Then again, there's a saying about those who fail to learn from history. Looking back over the past week, what have we done well, and what do we need to improve upon?
